Characterful two-bedroom town-centre apartment ideal for downsizers.
Town-centre gated development with countryside views
Two double bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom
Grade II listed — restrictions and higher maintenance possible
Sash windows and exposed timbers provide period character
Leasehold: 104 years remaining on a 125-year term
Electric boiler and underfloor heating; electricity-fuelled system
Solid stone walls likely uninsulated; consider energy upgrades
Above-average local crime rate; assess personal security needs
Set within a gated courtyard on Chipping Norton’s High Street, this two-double-bedroom period apartment offers an accessible town-centre base with countryside views. The layout includes two en-suite bathrooms, a separate kitchen and a lounge framed by sash windows and exposed timbers, totalling around 768 sq ft — a comfortable size for downsizers seeking low-stair living in a historic setting.
The property’s Grade II listing and traditional sandstone/limestone construction provide genuine character, but also practical constraints: listed status will affect alterations and may increase maintenance complexity and costs. The building appears to have original solid walls (likely uninsulated) and double glazing of unknown age; buyers should factor potential insulation and upgrading work into budgets.
The flat is leasehold with 104 years remaining on a 125-year term from 2004 and is sold chain free, simplifying purchase. Heating is by an electric boiler with underfloor heating; main fuel is electricity (not a communal system). There is no flood risk, council tax is described as affordable, and connectivity is strong with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband.
This is a practical, characterful option for someone seeking town-centre convenience and historic charm rather than a turnkey modern retrofit. Viewings will best suit buyers prepared to accept listed-building ownership responsibilities and consider modest upgrade work to improve insulation and energy efficiency.
