*PRICE REDUCED FOR QUICK SALE, CHAIN OF ONE ABOVE* Delightful four bed in a lovely corner plot, with detached garage in a quiet close just a few minutes walk to all the amenities incl school. Well proportioned with a good flow, the house is bright and roomy throughout.

Heyford Park is a vibrant, growing development with - amongst others - a new school, gym, Sainsburys, a new bar/restaurant, and very shortly a wide range of other new amenities. Surrounded by glorious farmland, it has all the advantages of a rural village combined with the accessibility of a town. Rail access is excellent with Lower Heyford village, just a mile away, having a station feeding to Oxford and London Paddington, Bicester North station is 6 miles East with frequent trains into London Marylebone, a journey that takes as little as 40 minutes at peak times. Road links are also straightforward with both the M40 and A34 a short drive away.

Number 2 has been designed to a very traditional style, and it's all the better for it. The double-fronted facade with its open porch feels familiar and reassuring. It's set back behind a good size frontage in a broad corner plot. Once inside, the layout is just as appealing, as is its immaculate condition, with a great flow that encourages family dining in the long kitchen and places the study/snug neatly separate from the rest of the living spaces. Upstairs is more of the same, with the two main bedrooms prioritised for parents and guests while the two smaller are ample children's rooms. Outside, the garden is pleasant with a wide terrace that sits between the living room and kitchen. And a garage is joined by a lengthy driveway. It all adds up to a very effective and happy family home.

The part-glazed front door opens into a bright and immaculate hallway, with a tiled floor that continues through much of the downstairs. To the left is a handy cupboard, offering plenty of storage. And ahead, the cloak room is stylishly finished, part tiled with a white suite that includes a neat vanity unit to the left-hand side. Turn right and you enter a really pleasant living room space. Your eyes are immediately drawn to the rear, as pretty much the whole back wall is glazed with bifold doors that open onto the decked terrace, a clever trick. It's a long room, and it's very bright, as those glazed rear doors are joined by a large front window in bringing in masses of natural light.

Across the hall, the study/home office is placed sensibly, well away from all the other accommodation, keeping it quiet for concentration. It's a good enough size for a desk, shelves, filing cabinet etc. And the view through the front window across your own front garden and the green is very relaxed. At the rear of the hall, the stairs rise away from you. To their left, the kitchen is a wonderful space. Two large windows down the left-hand side plus a further set of folding glazed doors opening onto that same decked terrace make it feel even larger than it really is. And that space really is very sizeable as the comprehensive suite of modern wall and base units, equipped with everything including fridge and freezer, double oven, dishwasher etc, only occupy half the room, with the far end dining area more than ample to house a large table and eight chairs. It's the perfect family kitchen.

Heading upstairs, another window halfway up lights both the hall and landing. At the top the over stairs cupboard contains the immersion tank. And note there is a loft with a hatch accessed from here. Take a right and keep heading round, and you'll reach the first of two very ample doubles. Windows to both sides make this very light. There's masses of space for the largest double bed as well as a generous size dresser or chest. And, if desired, a suite of wardrobes could easily be fitted.

Opposite, a pair of smaller bedrooms are both very well proportioned. The larger is a useful double if desired and the smaller a generous single. Serving both is a family bathroom mostly tiled with a travertine-style finish that's warm and light. And note the bath includes a retractable shower in the corner for neatness. The star of the upstairs is the main suite. A good size wardrobe fills all of one wall, from floor to ceiling, providing excellent storage. An ensuite has also been fitted, to a very good spec that includes a large walk-in shower, above which is a vast soaker head.

Heading outside, to the front a small area of lawn separates the house from the close, with the long driveway on the right leading up to the garage. On the left the frontage tapers, with a path to the front door edged with some pretty box hedging. This frontage continues round the left-hand side of the house, culminating with various visitor parking spaces on the left-hand boundary. From the long driveway (complete with vehicle electrical hook up already in place), a gate leads into the rear garden. The decked terrace runs the whole width of the rear of the house. It's the perfect venue for eating and relaxing throughout the high days of summer, made even more usable by the fact that both living room and kitchen have glaze doors opening onto it, a very good design. The rest of the garden is mainly lawn, securely enclosed by both brick and fence boundaries. And with very little able to overlook you from any quarter, it feels pleasingly private.

The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
