Summary - 5 SOUTHFIELD ROAD OXFORD OX4 1NX
3 bed 2 bath Detached
Chain-free three-bed with secluded garden and strong rental potential.
Chain-free three-bedroom detached with bay front character
A handsome bay-fronted period home on a quiet East Oxford side street, offered chain-free. The house provides three bedrooms, two bathrooms and generous internal space across about 1,279 sqft — a rare detached footprint in this part of the city. High ceilings, original features and a secluded rear garden give the property strong character and flexible room configurations.
Positioned in a cosmopolitan, student-oriented neighbourhood, the house suits investors seeking lettings with good rental demand, or buyers wanting a family home close to local schools and amenities. On-street permit parking serves the property; local transport links and fast broadband support commuter and student tenants alike.
There are some practical considerations: the solid brick walls are likely uninsulated, and the glazing installation date is unknown — upgrading insulation and windows could improve comfort and running costs. The area records higher crime levels than average, and the plot is relatively small, so buyers seeking large outdoor space should note the limited garden size.
Overall, this is a character-rich period property with immediate occupancy available and clear scope for value-add improvement. It will particularly appeal to those who value location and rental potential, or buyers prepared to invest in modernisation to reduce running costs and maximise long-term returns.
