This address might not be among Oxford's dreaming spires, but ten minutes in the car will get you into the heart of the university city, after which you can wander about the college grounds to your heart's content. This surrounding local neighbourhood is residential by conparison, filled with smart family properties just like this one. We've only got kind words for the interior design, which is simple but unfussy and effective. The garden is another big plus, with plenty of room for lawn games and alfresco dining.
