Set on the top floor of a Victorian‑inspired building in the heart of Wallingford, this two-bedroom apartment offers a bright open-plan living space with skylights and town views. The main bedroom includes an en suite, and the layout provides practical living for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking low running costs and long-term security.
Practical advantages include a very long lease (approx. 977 years remaining), low maintenance charges (£65 pcm, no ground rent) and proximity to the Cattlemarket car park and all town amenities. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support modern working from home needs, while Wallingford’s schools, shops and riverside walks are all within easy walking distance.
Notable drawbacks are the lack of dedicated parking (on-street only, though a public car park is adjacent) and the town’s above-average crime rate. The double glazing install date is unknown and purchasers should verify the condition of heating, appliances and electrics as fixtures and services have not been tested.
Overall this chain‑free apartment suits buyers prioritising central location, low ongoing charges and long lease security, while accepting modest maintenance responsibilities and limited private parking.
