Two-bed flat with balcony, parking and long share-of-freehold lease in Summertown.
Two double bedrooms; principal bedroom with en suite
Set in popular Summertown, this two-double-bedroom apartment offers practical living close to schools, shops and frequent bus links into Oxford. The principal bedroom benefits from an en suite and both bedrooms open onto a long balcony, bringing outdoor access to upper-floor living. Allocated off-street parking and a long share-of-freehold lease (987 years) are strong ownership advantages.
Internally the layout is L-shaped with a separate kitchen fitted with appliances, an L-shaped sitting/dining room and a family bathroom — all arranged over an average-sized 781 sq ft floorplan. The building dates from the 1980s and is a standard brick construction with gas central heating and double glazing.
Running costs and practical points to note include an annual service charge of £2,041 and above-average council tax; there is no ground rent. The living room is compact compared with the bedroom sizes and there is no private garden — the balcony is the only outdoor space. Buyers should expect a straightforward, modern flat that will suit professionals, families wanting strong local schools, or investors seeking reliable demand in a very affluent area.
Summertown’s local amenities, gyms and excellent school options make this easy-to-manage apartment appealing for owner-occupiers who prioritise location over private outdoor space. With a long lease and allocated parking, the property requires minimal immediate work but will benefit from cosmetic updating to reflect personal taste.
