Summertown sits along the Banbury Road in North Oxford, with large Victorian and Edwardian houses on the side streets and plenty of flats around the shops. Big older homes mean high ceilings, tall sash windows and long hallways, so curtain poles and blinds for large windows, stairwell decorating and easing doors that have moved over the years are all typical jobs here. In flats, the usual list is flat-pack furniture, TV mounting and small plumbing fixes such as dripping taps and running toilets. Parking can be tight near the shops, so tell us about permits or a space when you book.
