Top-floor two-bedroom apartment with park views
Share of freehold; ~943 years remaining on lease
Sold with no onward chain — ready to buy

This top-floor two-bedroom apartment offers bright living with direct views over South Park and Headington Hill. At around 754 sq ft the layout includes a dual-aspect reception room, one double and one large single bedroom, a fitted kitchen and a family bathroom — presented ready to move into and sold with no onward chain.
Practical benefits include a long lease (999 years from 1969, c.943 years remaining), share of freehold, an integral garage and well-kept communal gardens. Heating is mains gas via a boiler and radiators; windows are double glazed (installed before 2002). Council tax is described as affordable.
Notable drawbacks are factual and important for buyers: broadband speeds are very slow, the surrounding area is a cosmopolitan student neighbourhood with above-average crime statistics, and the building dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s so some elements may need updating over time. Parking is via the garage rather than private driveway.
This property suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a low-management apartment with good park views and city access. The combination of a long lease, share of freehold and no chain makes it straightforward to purchase, but buyers should factor in connectivity limits and local neighbourhood character when viewing.
