A substantial detached residence of over 4,300 sq ft, positioned in a prime North Oxford setting, within easy reach of Summertown.
Designed and built as a private home by award-winning developer Robin Swailes, the house offers a level of specification and build quality rarely found in the open market. Carefully maintained and refined over time, it provides a highly functional and well-balanced family home.
Arranged across four floors, with a fully integrated lower ground level including cinema, gym and study, the house combines architectural clarity with long-term performance.
The Georgian-inspired home is arranged across four floors and designed to provide both flexibility and clarity of space. The entrance hall creates an immediate sense of arrival, with a raised stone threshold and carefully balanced proportions, centred around a sculptural Portland stone staircase.
Featuring a bespoke wrought iron balustrade of interlocking geometric form, the staircase rises through the house as a defining architectural element, establishing a strong sense of volume, light and continuity.
The ground floor is centred around a generous kitchen, dining and family space, with full-width glazing opening directly onto the garden, allowing the interior and exterior to function as a single environment. A separate sitting room provides a more formal and private setting.
The lower ground floor is fully integrated into the main accommodation and designed as a dedicated lifestyle level, comprising a cinema room, gym, study and utility space. This floor significantly enhances the functionality of the house, allowing it to support work, leisure and day-to-day living without compromise.
Bedroom accommodation is arranged across the upper floors. The principal suite incorporates a dressing room and en-suite bathroom, while additional bedrooms are well proportioned and supported by further bathrooms and dressing areas, offering flexibility for family life or guests.
