Tucked away on one of Headington's most desirable residential roads, Brockle Bend is a striking and architecturally distinctive home, privately set within a generous plot of just under 0.9 acres with vast potential. Built by the renowned neuropsychologist Professor Larry Weiskrantz, pioneer of the concept of "blindsight”. This unique residence was inspired by the clean, modern lines and openness of classic Beverly Hills architecture.
Flooded with natural light, the property offers approximately 2,367 sq ft of internal space and is defined by elegant high ceilings and expansive south-facing windows that connect the main living areas to the mature gardens. Almost every principal room is oriented to the south..
Accessed via a private driveway, Brockle Bend offers both privacy and presence. The beautifully maintained south facing gardens create a peaceful retreat, while the internal layout provides flexibility for modern family living or entertaining at scale.
This is a rare opportunity to own a home of provenance and design pedigree in a highly sought-after Oxford location, moments from the amenities of Headington and with excellent access to central Oxford, local schools, hospitals, and transport links.
The house is tucked away off Jack Straws Lane. This part of the lane serves only a few houses and is flanked by mature trees and hedges in places. The house is very well placed for a range of excellent schools in the area and the city's main hospitals being the John Radcliffe, Churchill and Nuffield. There is good local shopping at Headington with Waitrose, Sainsburys and Tesco supermarkets and a wide variety of artisan bakers and cafes. There is also the pick up point for the Oxford Tube coach service to London Victoria. Schools such as Magdalen College, Headington Rye, The Dragon and Cherwell are also within easy reach.
