Location

Tucked away off fashionable North Parade, with good access into Oxford city centre along nearby Banbury and Woodstock Roads. North Parade has a variety of shops, restaurants and public houses, and it is within a quarter mile radius of the University Parks and Port Meadow.

Description

Hidden away, yet steps from the bustle of North Parade, this is a rare opportunity to purchase a delightful and unique period property. This fascinating detached former Ice House has been converted into an individual dwelling with private courtyard garden, a wealth of character and charm and a large basement. With a flexible arrangement of accommodation, it could provide a city centre home, it could suit as an investment, or it could have appeal as a weekday city base or even as a weekend retreat. The property is arranged with an entrance gallery with steps down to an open plan living/dining room. This area has a vaulted ceiling which adds to the feeling of space. Wood floors and exposed brick create a warehouse feel. Off this room is a fitted kitchen with ample storage. On the first floor is a large galleried bedroom with separate bathroom. There is also useful storage on this level. Beautiful original beams accentuate the high ceilings. There is a very sizeable basement which has been used for storage. At the front of the property is a private courtyard garden, ideal for al fresco dining.

Directions

From Oxford city centre proceed north along St Giles and onto Banbury Road. Turn left after a distance into North Parade.
