About this property

Ajax House: Renovation Underway- ½ Block to Oxford Square, Walk to Ole Miss

Ajax House is currently undergoing a comprehensive interior and exterior renovation, creating a refreshed and elevated guest experience in one of Oxford's most sought after locations. Guests can enjoy newly updated spaces while additional enhancements continue to bring new life to this charming downtown townhome. Few properties offer the combination of a half block walk to Oxford Square and easy access to The Grove, allowing guests to enjoy Oxford without relying on a vehicle during their stay

Located just half a block from the Historic Oxford Square and approximately a 10 minute walk to The Grove and Ole Miss campus, Ajax House places guests in the center of everything that makes Oxford special. From football weekends and graduation ceremonies to weddings, festivals, and weekend getaways, you'll enjoy easy access to the best of Oxford without ever needing to move your car.

Few properties offer the combination of a half block walk to Oxford Square and convenient access to The Grove, making Ajax House an ideal home base for experiencing the city on foot.

This comfortable 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath townhouse accommodates up to four guests and is thoughtfully designed for couples, families, alumni, and friends traveling together. The home also features a queen-size sleeper sofa with pull-out queen bed, providing comfortable additional sleeping space for up to 2 guests.

The primary bedroom features a queen size bed, while the second bedroom includes two twin beds. A full bathroom upstairs and a convenient half bath downstairs provide comfort and functionality throughout your stay.

One of Ajax House's most inviting features is its outdoor living space. The spacious front porch offers a perfect setting for morning coffee, people watching, or enjoying an evening cocktail while taking in sunset views toward downtown Oxford. For guests seeking a quieter retreat, the private rear patio provides a shaded and relaxing outdoor space away from the activity of The Square.

The full size kitchen is equipped for both short and extended stays, with everything needed to prepare a quick breakfast before a game day walk to campus or a leisurely dinner after exploring Oxford's renowned restaurants and shops.

Leave your car parked and enjoy the convenience of walking to Oxford's best dining, shopping, nightlife, and Ole Miss traditions. Whether you're in town for a Rebels game, a special event, or a relaxing weekend getaway, Ajax House offers the perfect blend of location, comfort, and authentic Oxford charm.

We look forward to welcoming you to Ajax House and helping make your Oxford stay unforgettable.
