This ground-floor one-bedroom flat in Headington offers a straightforward, chain-free purchase and practical essentials for a first home or buy-to-let with work. The property includes an allocated garage and communal gardens, and sits just 0.1 miles from a frequent bus route into Oxford city centre — convenient for commuting, shopping and local schools.
The apartment is average-sized (approx. 494 sq ft) and dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s. Interiors are functional but dated: the living space and finishes will benefit from refurbishment to modernise flooring, kitchen and bathroom. Heating appears to be electric heaters only; there is no mains central-heating system in place. Windows are double-glazed though installation date is unknown.
A critical practical issue: the lease has only 38 years remaining. Many mortgage lenders will decline to lend on leases of this length, so the property is likely only suitable for cash buyers or those who can arrange non-standard finance. Buyers should also allow for potential retrofit work to cavity walls if insulation is desired.
In summary, this flat offers a low-entry, chain-free opportunity in a well-connected part of Headington with garage and communal garden space. It suits a buyer seeking a hands-on refurbishment project or a cash investor willing to address lease and heating limitations.
