This newly renovated one-bedroom apartment occupies the second floor of a mid‑20th‑century purpose‑built block and offers compact, low‑maintenance living close to Templars Square. The layout centres on an open-plan kitchen/reception with a sliding partition wall — useful for creating privacy or opening up the space for entertaining. Integrated kitchen appliances and a contemporary bathroom with heated towel rail mean the home is ready to move into.
Practical extras include allocated off‑street parking, lift and entry‑phone access, long lease (999 years from 2014) and no onward chain, which simplifies purchase for first‑time buyers or professionals. The property sits about 0.1 miles from local shops and services and 2.1 miles from Oxford city centre, with excellent bus links and strong mobile signal.
Buyers should note the flat is small (approximately 377 sq ft) and the building is a mid‑1960s/70s system‑built structure with assumed no cavity insulation in the walls. Heating is electric via room heaters rather than gas central heating — this may affect running costs. The wider area has a high recorded crime rate, so consider security and insurance implications alongside the allocated parking and entry‑phone system.
Overall this apartment suits a first‑time buyer or commuter seeking a compact, turnkey property in a well‑connected part of East Oxford. It offers easy upkeep, long lease security and immediate occupancy, while presenting scope to personalise within the constraints of its size and building construction.
