1 Bed Maisonette, Pleasant Land, OX1

The Area


A one bedroom, pet friendly maisonette, within a stunning modernist property on Boars Hill, is available to rent from 10 June 2023. The building was designed by the sculptor Oscar Nemon, who lived there for many years. 
The property is located in a tranquil and garden of one acre, shared with the other three units within the property, off a private lane on Boars Hill, with outstanding views over fields and trees. There's parking for two cars on the driveway, and Abingdon and Oxford are both approximately 20 minutes drive away. 

Boars Hill is great for walking, running, and enjoying the beautiful surrounding countryside. 

The nearest pub, which serves great food, and has lovely views, is twenty minutes walk away on Boars Hill, or five minutes by car. There are buses into Oxford and Abingdon from Wootton and Hinksey Hill but a car is helpful to get the most out of this beautiful rural location with excellent road links. 

The closest shops are in the village of Wootton, 5 minutes drive, or 20 minutes walk.

The Property


Formerly part of the home and studio of the sculptor Oscar Nemon, the property makes a perfect home for a couple, or single person. A luminous double bedroom, with views over fields and trees, measuring 5.5m x 3.6 m is located on the first floor. It has a built in wardrobe, an ensuite shower room and wc, and a separate study area. There is a separate, second guest toilet on the landing, and a laundry space for the washer drier also on the landing. 


The huge open plan living room/ diner / kitchen on the ground floor is the light-filled heart of the property. It has a wall of glass on one side, and measures 5.5m x 5.5m. The fitted kitchen includes a gas hob, electric cooker, and compact dishwasher as well as a Smeg Fridge Freezer. 

The property has double glazing throughout, and gas central heating, and benefits from high ceilings and windows on both sides to maximise the light and views. 

Well behaved pets are welcome, and will love the freedom of Boars Hill's green spaces and woodland walks.

The property has its own private patio with dining chairs and table, and grassed areas beyond. Residents are also welcome to enjoy the acre garden which surrounds the house, maintenance of which is undertaken by a professional gardener, and included in the rent.
