Stunning 4 bed historic townhouse in Oxfords heart
An exceptional location for business or pleasure. Only a few minutes walk from the university buildings, theatres, museums and select shopping, this secret hideaway in the heart the city only reveals itself when you open the door and step into The Courtyard Garden, a veritable Eden of greenery embraced by the soft sound of the fountain. The two buildings, Cloisters and The Masters Lodgings, sit opposite each other, each with its own space and outside seating area.
Cloisters, sleeps 8 over 4 individually styled bedroom and bathroom suites. Each spacious suite is complemented with dedicated dressing areas with soft seating, hand-made super-king beds and Vi-Spring Elite mattresses [each made to order and perfect for that restorative night’s sleep], and stunning porcelain and natural stone bathrooms with freestanding baths and monsoon or raindrop showers, essential to soak away any stresses from the day.
With sleek, sophisticated and characterful interior design this property is sure to delight. Walking in off The Courtyard Garden you are greeted by a large, colourful open-plan reception room. This space offers plenty of comfortable seating and space to spread out, relax, watch the large-screen TV or read quietly perhaps with the French Doors open onto the garden.
The ground floor also offers a cloakroom, Butlers Pantry and a modern luxury kitchen with central island feature, double ovens, bean-to-cup coffee machine [perfect for the inner barista], wine fridge, three sinks with Quooker boiling taps and a dedicated breakfast zone.
The central staircase leads you to the four suites, one boasting a Grade II listed ornate plaster ceiling dating back to the early 17th Century. Two suites overlook the greenery of the garden; while the other two face towards Oxford Castle, a truly stunning sight when illuminated at night.
Outside there is a large dining table with chairs set beneath the arbour and right outside the glass French Doors, providing the perfect opportunity to sit or dine outside and appreciate the special atmosphere of this secluded garden, hidden away right in the centre of the city.
For music lovers, your experience is further enhanced by a SONOS architectural sound system, as Cloisters is equipped with a state-of-the-art multi-room system complemented by MONITOR in-ceiling speakers.
Cloisters is your own taste of Eden in the heart of Oxford delivering sheer luxury and matching your high expectations, this is the perfect retreat for your next holiday, celebration or business trip.
