About this property

Beautiful small 2-bedroom house in Iffley Fields

Beautiful recently-converted 2 bedroom house in the sought-after area of Iffley Fields. The location is perfect: with lush meadows and the river within a few minutes' walking distance!
The house is very small, with a total floor area of 39 sq m, so it is ideal for a single person, or couple. It has a double & single bedroom, an open plan kitchen/reception, & a shower room which is off the reception, downstairs.
Outside there is a lockable area for safe bike storage.
It's approx a 25 minute walk/10 minute bike ride/5 minute bus ride to the City Centre. You can even walk/cycle/jog all along the river bank to the city centre!
The area is peaceful & inhabited by relatively well-to-do families & it is also popular with students.
Nearby is the bohemian Cowley Road with its diverse array of shops, cafes & restaurants.
One of the best things about this location is the Chester Arms - a great family-friendly pub around the corner where they serve really good food, and have friendly staff. Lovely to sit outside (or inside). There are queues for their traditional Sunday roast dinners!

Great neighborhood

The property has a lot of great things within really close walking distance. The Chester Arms, a pub which a stone's throw away, has amazing food - the best lamb my husband has ever had! And the walk down the river is heavenly. The bathroom is quite tight (it is on the first floor). My husband and I are both thin but I do think it might be a difficulty if you are not. The kitchen was top notch and the clothes washer was very efficient. We stayed for 3 weeks in Oxford and I would recommend this place to anyone. Marilyn is a very involved host, even though she lives in London.

Iffley Fields home

Had a lovely stay at this well appointed home in Iflley Fields. It is very clean, well kept and well stocked. It is perfectly situated for a variety of activities in Oxford. It is within easy reach of a variety of shopping and wonderful walking paths to explore. It's a 15-20 minute walk into Oxford. Bus stops, taxi and rental cars are close at hand as well. The pub right around the corner is quite convenient as are a variety of other places to eat close by. Enjoy!

Compact, modern house in quiet residential road within walking distance of Oxford centre

compact,clean,quiet house.5/10mins walk away is a great fish n chippy and a co-op as well as a park and the river and pubs.20min walk from city centre over Magdalen Bridge where you can boat hire or have great food in the oldest coffee shop in Europe or walk past the historic buildings on towards the shopping centre.

About the host

Hosted by Marilyn

I compose and teach music and write. I studied Anthropology at Oxford University, and loved it so much in Oxford, I bought a house here! I'm from London originally.

I speak English, French & Hebrew, with a smattering of Amharic. I learned Spanish a long time ago, but can't remember much!

Why they chose this property

The house is tiny and beautiful and high-spec. The area is safe, quiet, and fabulous - it's right near where I started off as a student a long time ago! It is wonderful to walk in the nearby meadows and sit by the river.

What makes this property unique

The designer was into light features - so the staircase lights up from underneath, and you can light up the top of the downstairs windows! Which is quite nice to do before you go out in the evening, so that they are lit up to come back to.
