Bright, low-maintenance flat near parkland and transport links, ideal for first buyers.
Top-floor two-bedroom apartment with private balcony
Light-filled and well-presented, this top-floor two-bedroom apartment is aimed squarely at first-time buyers, downsizers or investors seeking a low-maintenance home close to green space. The reception room benefits from dual-aspect windows, patio doors onto a private balcony and original parquet flooring in the hall and living area, creating a welcoming living space. Two double bedrooms include built-in wardrobes and the fitted kitchen and family bathroom are in good, tidy condition.
Practical conveniences include a garage, residents’ parking and an unusually long lease (approx. 974 years), making this an easy purchase and straightforward proposition for mortgage lenders. The location is a major selling point — the apartment sits beside Cutteslowe & Sunnymead Park, around a mile from Oxford Parkway station and within easy reach of Summertown’s shops, cafés and amenities. Several highly regarded schools are also nearby.
Buyers should note the property is leasehold with an average annual service charge of about £1,920 and a moderate council tax band. Broadband speeds in the area are described as slow, which may be relevant for home working. The block dates from the late 1960s/1970s and, while the flat is well maintained, it offers scope for cosmetic updating to reflect personal taste.
Overall this apartment offers a rare combination of park-side tranquillity, convenient commuter links and long-term lease security — an uncomplicated, affordable entry to North Oxford living.
