Property description
Oxford Boathouse is a very special property situated on an island in the River Thames, with fabulous views up and down the river. The property was built in the year 2000 and later extensively updated by the vendors, including the addition of two extensions, a terrace and balconies, boat landings and the addition of parking. This striking property is modern in design, with Canadian cedar wood cladding on the exterior and bright, contemporary interior in a palette of neutral tones to afford easy personalisation by the new owner. The vendors have also taken great care improving the energy efficiency and carbon footprint of the home, adding an electric car charging point and additional insulation, rewilding parts of the garden and using glazing to create warmth and plenty of natural light. The property also features a water softener.
The substantial accommodation of over 3500 sq ft is arranged over three floors, with the basement level having its own boat dock, garage area/gym and useful storage rooms. The main living spaces are arranged on the raised ground floor, which is entered on the south side of the house via a welcoming entrance hall with a cloakroom/WC and utility area. At the heart of the home is the vast open plan space, comprising areas for dining and relaxing, as well as a fully fitted Sigma 3 kitchen installed in 2022, with granite-quartz composite work surfaces. There is a west facing conservatory to one side which opens to a balcony providing stunning views, which continues around almost the entire circumference of the house including an impressive terrace on the north side looking out over the river. The four bedrooms are situated on the first floor and accessed by three separate staircases: A south-west facing double with en suite shower room, a north-east facing double also with an en suite shower room, and in the centre of the house two generous double bedrooms both opening to an east facing balcony and sharing a family bathroom with both bath and sh
