High-spec three-bedroom Victorian terrace with private garden close to Cowley Road.
Three double bedrooms over three floors, approximately 1,220 sq ft
This bay-fronted Victorian mid-terrace has been substantially extended and newly renovated to a high specification, offering three double bedrooms across three floors and approximately 1,220 sq ft of well-planned living space. The heart of the house is a large, open-plan kitchen/dining/family room with bi-fold doors to a mature, private rear garden — a rare outdoor retreat in this part of East Oxford. The top-floor master conversion provides a bright, self-contained bedroom with good head height and privacy.
Practical positives include double glazing, mains gas central heating, freehold tenure and residents’ permit on-street parking. The property sits on a quiet side road less than 200m from Cowley Road’s cafes, shops and restaurants, and is a level walk (about 1.25 miles) to Oxford city centre — an excellent location for professionals, students and families seeking urban convenience with outside space.
Buyers should note a few material points: the plot is small so outdoor space is compact, parking is on-street by permit only, and the house is in an area with higher-than-average crime rates. The building’s solid-brick construction likely lacks cavity wall insulation (as-built), so there may be opportunities or costs associated with additional thermal upgrading.
Overall this property suits buyers wanting a ready-to-live-in, high-spec period home near central Oxford amenities, or investors seeking a strong rental location close to universities and transport links. The renovation reduces immediate maintenance needs, while some energy-performance improvements could add long-term savings and comfort.
