About this apartment rental

Our 2 bedroom apartment in Faulkner Street is for those who want to be in the epicenter of Oxford. You are within sight of Christchurch College, next door to the new Westgate Shopping Centre and the fashionable Castle Complex, 5 minutes walk from the High Street and University colleges and 10 minutes from the Said Business School.

Faulkner Apartment is surprisingly quiet for such a central location, with a cycle path on one side and a cul-de-sac on the other. You can see the top of the spire of Pembroke College from the sitting room sofa and, when the leaves fall off the trees, Christchurch Colleges Tom Tower comes into view.

The interiors are designed with an artistic blend of ultramodern and antique. It has 20th century artworks on the walls, Persian rugs on the wooden floors and 18th to 21st century furniture. Faulkner is on the top floor (second floor) with windows on three sides. It feels light and airy and catches the sun all day.

The sitting room and the spacious master bedroom overlook the communal garden. The second bedroom is small, with a small double bed (4ft) and a fold-down work table. It looks west over the cul-de-sac towards the roof terrace of the Westgate Centre. There is a well-equipped kitchen with oak dining table, fully integrated appliances and stainless steel finish.
The kitchen is a food lover’s delight with an array utensils for the serious cook.

The sitting room has soft cream sofa and beautiful rug on the wooden floors. A glass coffee table allows you to lounge of an evening with your drinks watching the TV. The sitting room also has some beautiful pieces of antique furniture and original artworks on the walls.

The bathroom has wooden floors and a bath and integral shower. Both bedrooms have blackout blinds, as well as curtains, for those who need their sleep. There is super-fast fibre optic broadband and a Flat Screen TV.

Services include: linen service, super fast fibre optic broadband and all bills. Faulkner has off-street private parking for one car by separate negotiation. Please ask.

We also have studio apartments in a crenellated Victorian tower on the river at Folly Bridge. For more information search for follybridgehouse (all one word).

Already familiar with Oxford & location, almost a local. This was a relocation stay due to insurance work on my house in the next town. A refreshing change to live for a short while in the middle of the city centre, which is next to the main shops where you can buy your groceries, just browse, go out to eat, cinema, and visit all the tourist attractions or universities. The flat is in a quiet private street, not amongst the throng of the crowds which was fantastic. I particularly preferred this, along with having the shopping close to hand along with all the major bus routes around the corner (I need to use frequently). The property was clean and well equipped for my stay, and there was a glass of flowers to welcome me too. Only criticism I have is the fact that the website could do with updating as there was no longer a music system so I brought my radio. Catriona was very good to me when I needed to extend my stay and especially to organise an updated WiFi router as the internet was poor (it now works fine!) I was sad to leave, and my eyes opened to a different way of living. I'd even live there myself if it had a garden I could access. Perfect for me. Dropped a star because the website needs an update.
