Overview

Angel Cottage is a beautifully presented three-bedroom character home set on a quiet residential street in the heart of East Oxford, overlooking the tranquil Angel and Greyhound Meadow. Spread across three storeys, the cottage combines original period charm with comfortable, modern furnishings — making it an ideal base for families, groups and professional stays alike.

The open-plan living room feels warm and welcoming, with sky-blue walls, a cast-iron wood-burning stove, tan leather sofa and shelved alcoves filled with character. It flows through to a separate dining room — a striking space with a deep red feature wall and a large table seating six — and on to a well-equipped galley kitchen with everything needed for home cooking, including a Bosch dishwasher, washing machine, espresso machine and a large fridge-freezer.

Three bedrooms are arranged across the upper floors: a generous king-size room with forest green walls, mirrored wardrobes and quality linens; a bright loft double with twin skylights and a dedicated workspace; and a cosy single with French doors overlooking the greenery beyond. A family bathroom with bath completes the home.
?
Outside, a private enclosed garden — laid with artificial lawn and a slate circle patio — looks out over meadow and mature trees through a white picket-style railing. Fairy lights and cushioned garden furniture make it a perfect spot to unwind on warmer evenings.

Oxford city centre, Cowley Road's restaurants and cafés, and Magdalen Road's local shops are all within easy walking or cycling distance.
