Middle Way, Oxford, OX2

A unique, contemporary, architect-designed, town house with an enclosed central courtyard in a convenient & prestigious location. The 5 double bedroomed accommodation is very flexible & currently used for 2 bedrooms, a studio, study & TV room. Ideal for all Summertown amenities & good local independent & state schools. The very quiet location is opposite Alexandra Park & tennis courts. It is possible to move in to 9a Middle Way immediately with no need for any major works.

The property is a very secure, well-presented, five bedroom family home offering flexible, light filled, accommodation arranged over three floors around an enclosed Moroccan Riad style central courtyard. The deceptively spacious house is like a Tardis. The ground floor accommodation flows from a welcoming reception hall with feature curved staircase. The sitting room opens onto the central courtyard with two sets of bi-fold doors, making this an ideal indoor / outdoor entertaining space, which offers a low-maintenance paved space, ideal for al fresco dining. There is a large kitchen/dining room for family & friends, with a range of bespoke wall & floor units, modern integrated appliances, space for a sizeable dining table and French doors to the central courtyard.

On the first floor the property provides a generous master bedroom with built-in storage, a contemporary en suite wet room and French doors to a Juliet balcony overlooking the courtyard below. There are two further well-proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom.

A curved staircase leads to an additional second floor bedroom with a modern en suite shower room and a private decked balcony with far reaching views. Separate stairs from the landing give access to a fifth bedroom above the master, currently used as a studio.

Middle Way is a popular side road in the sought after Summertown area with its excellent range of restaurants and cafés, local and High Street stores including a M&S Food Hall, Sainsburys, Tesco and Boots. Amenities include GP and dentist surgeries, banks, a library, a park with playground and tennis courts and a leisure centre with swimming pool.

Frequent bus services from both Banbury Road and Woodstock Road offer excellent access to Oxford city centre with its commercial, educational and shopping facilities including Westgate shopping centre and John Lewis. Bicester Village is also a bus ride away. The open spaces of Port Meadow are nearby, as is Walton Street with its cafés, restaurants, pubs, cocktail bars and cinema.

The property is well located for state schools including Northern House and Cherwell School. There is also a good selection of independent schools including Summer Fields, d’Overbroeck’s, Wychwood, The Dragon School, St. Clare’s, Oxford High School GDST and St. Edward’s.

Communication links are excellent with access to central London from both Oxford and Oxford Parkway station in less than an hour and easy access to the M40 motorway and to London Heathrow.
