Summary - Flat 5, 26 Horse Fair OX16 0AE
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Newly renovated one-bedroom flat in town centre — chain free and move-in ready.
Central town-centre location, walking distance to amenities and transport
A bright, newly renovated one-bedroom apartment in the heart of Banbury, ready to move into with no onward chain. The open-plan living and kitchen area is complemented by sash windows, contemporary shaker-style units and oak worktops, creating a comfortable, low-maintenance home for a first-time buyer or couple. The property sits in a period brick building and benefits from communal courtyard gardens and well-proportioned rooms that feel larger than the square footage suggests.
Practical running costs are straightforward: gas central heating with a modern boiler, an entry phone/video system, and an internal cupboard with plumbing for a washing machine. The flat is offered leasehold with around 116 years remaining, an annual service charge of approximately £1,498 and a ground rent of £250. Council tax is very cheap, which helps with monthly outgoings.
Important considerations: the apartment is in a town-centre area recorded as having very high crime and high deprivation locally, which may affect resale appeal and perceived safety. The communal setting and leasehold running costs should be factored into your budget. Overall, this apartment offers a well-presented, move-in-ready option for a buyer prioritising central location, modern fixtures and short-term convenience over complete privacy or a detached setting.
Viewing is recommended to appreciate the period exterior, high ceilings and the efficient one-bedroom layout that suits city living and commuting links.
