Property Details

Southmoor Rd is an elegant, Victorian town house, having spacious rooms which are light and airy with original features. It is in a one way side street with lovely neighbours and is in a great location. The road has resident’s parking with visitors permits available.

The house has been sympathetically renovated. In the 1980’s by Taylor Woodrow for his daughter who was at University here. Steps were made down to the lower ground floor providing convenient access to then kitchen flat but now giving through access to the garden and making the kitchen lighter and brighter. This change also allows for direct access when bringing in the shopping. In the 1990’s further improvements were made by current owner to the lower ground floor to make a kitchen/breakfast room and a shower/utility room (following structural survey). In addition access to the garden was improved, widening steps, lowering garden level (improving views of the garden) and building patios. The attractive Victorian rockery by the side of the steps was retained with ferns and bricks from relining the furnaces at Lucy’s iron foundry.

There is a long, well maintained garden, with plants, shrubs, trees, a garden shed, new fencing this side and two seating patio areas to catch the sun morning and evening. It backs onto the long gardens of Kingston Road and directly to the former Kingston Road Bakery now owned by a garden designer. These allow for attractive views from the top of the house.
The house is in the catchment area of the SS Philip and James Primary school and within walking distance to Oxford Train Station (0.8 miles)
Southmoor Road is a one-way side street in Jericho limiting the through traffic and allowing for convenient access into the Jericho shops.
Port Meadow is within walking distance as well (0.3 miles) and allows for over 300 acres of meadow land and country walks along with riverside walks.
