Light-filled top-floor home near shops, transport and excellent schools.
Top-floor penthouse-style one-bedroom, newly renovated
A bright, newly renovated one-bedroom top-floor home tucked beside St. Helen’s Church, steps from Abingdon town centre. The open living area and modern fitted kitchen are complemented by new carpets, neutral décor and good natural light from a skylight. A garage provides off-street parking in a very central location.
Practical ownership is strong: a newly assigned 999-year lease, low annual service charge of £300 (includes block buildings insurance) and gas central heating with double glazing. This makes the property straightforward to manage for first-time buyers or investors seeking a low-running-cost central flat with immediate rental or owner-occupier appeal.
Notable drawbacks are factual: broadband speeds in the area are very slow and local crime levels are high. The property is chain-free, but it is a leasehold arrangement despite resident control of the management company. Council tax band B keeps running costs modest.
For buyers prioritising location, convenience and a move-in-ready home, this property offers excellent access to shops, cafés, schools and commuter links (Oxford c.9 miles; Didcot Parkway c.7 miles). The apartment suits someone who values a stylish, low-maintenance base in the heart of town, though those who work from home may want to check connectivity options first.
