Description

Located in the highly sought-after conservation area of Old Headington, Dunstan Cottage has provided a comfortable home for generations since its development in the mid 30’s by Dr Emden; a botanist whose historical presence is most felt through Emden House Care Home. During this time, the property has undergone significant extension and development, and now presents a unique opportunity for various property hunters and home buyers.

Dunstan Cottage comprises a primary dwelling and two additional annexed structures. The main house spans approximately 1836 sq ft, featuring a front entrance hallway, a shower room, a generously sized living room, a spacious kitchen area, and a reception on the ground floor.
