Rarely available - A unique end-of-terrace period house set in a secluded riverside position at the meadow end of Boulter Street with excellent access both to the city centre and a variety of green spaces.
This period property has been extended and re-modelled over the years to provide well-balanced and flexible accommodation, including a generous 26ft reception room with wood-burning stove, a separate dining room, kitchen, utility and WC. Upstairs, there is a spacious bathroom and 2 bedrooms, while a useful loft room provides additional space. A second staircase from the living room leads to a further bedroom/family room with splendid river and meadow views through large windows on three sides.
The versatile 15’ x 13’ garage, currently used as a home workshop, benefits from recent planning permission granted for “enclosure and alterations to form extension and hobby room” (planning ref: 25/00941/FUL), offering clear potential to further enhance the property.
Outside, there is a courtyard garden with useful rear access, including direct access to the Angel and Greyhound Meadow, located less than 20 metres away. A discreet trap door in the decking has steps down to a private river frontage, where the current owners keep a punt and enjoy regular excursions down the River Cherwell towards Magdalen Bridge. The river setting also provides remarkable opportunities for wildlife watching, with kingfishers and otters regularly seen by the current occupants. Views across the meadow towards Magdalen College and deer park create a beautiful and ever-changing backdrop.
Boulter Street is located just to the east of the city centre, a short walk from The Plain and the vibrant Cowley Road with its wide selection of shops, bars, cafes and restaurants. The Oxford Tube and Airline Coach services are available within 200 yards, allowing 24-hour transport to London, Heathrow and Gatwick. Oxford Mainline Station also offers frequent trains to London Paddington or Marylebone (approx.1 hour travel time). On the doorstep are the green open spaces of the Angel and Greyhound Meadow, South Park, Headington Hill Park and Christchurch Meadow, while the property is also within easy reach of both Marston and the Headington hospitals.
