Description

I am an academic from Istanbul and will be visiting the University of Oxford for one year. My husband, who is an engineer, will be accompanying us during our stay. We are a family of four looking for a comfortable home to rent for 12 months starting in August 2026. Ideally, the property would be located within reasonable distance of an elementary/primary school, as we have young children. We are a quiet and responsible family with no pets, and we do not smoke or host loud parties. We will take great care of the home and treat it with respect. We would be very happy to provide further details, references, or arrange a conversation if helpful.
