Description

Property Reference: 1833691.

1-bedroomed apartment overlooking River Thames in south Oxford - £1600 (including water, rubbish, but not electricity or internet), available 1st March 2026 for short-term lease.

This is a lovely quiet, bright, warm, modern apartment overlooking the River Thames in South Oxford. The owner rents for periods of a year or two while she is working away from Oxford. It's an excellent place from which to access the university and cultural life of Oxford, walk along the Thames, and read or write a book.

It would particularly suit a single person or a couple coming to work at the University on a short-term contract. It’s modern, fully furnished, well equipped, and energy-efficient. The location (off the end of the Abingdon Road) has good access to the City centre on a main bus route (15 mins), the bike path along the Thames (15 mins by bike, 25 mins to walk). The apartment is on the second floor (stairs only, no lift) and is particularly peaceful. It comes with a designated parking space. There is a medium-sized supermarket on the corner, 5 minutes away.

Sorry, no pets, smoking or young children. PhD and mature MA students eligible, but no undergraduates.

Included in the monthly rent are the costs of water and rubbish collection, but the tenant is responsible for their own accounts for electricity (est. £35-100/m), broadband (if required: £35-45/m + connection charge), and council tax (in 2025 this was £142 for a single-person).

In detail, the apartment consists of:

  • Large main room with combined living space and kitchen. Kitchen has induction hob, oven, microwave, fridge, toaster, kettle, dishes. The living space has a table and chairs, reclining leather chair and footstool, and sofa bed (thick mattress, comfortable).
  • Bedroom, large, with double bed (and sheets and blankets), walk-in wardrobe, chest-o-drawers and dressing table with more shelving space.
  • Bathroom, with tub and shower, heated towel rail, basin and toilet.
  • Heating is a state-of-the-art system with electric radiators, Internet-controlled and very responsive.

If interested, please write something about yourself to see if this a good fit. After that the existing tenant will show the apartment online or in person to a few qualified candidates.
