A vacant first-floor two-bedroom flat offered at auction, presenting a clear refurbishment opportunity for investors or hands-on buyers. The building dates from the mid-20th century and the accommodation includes a reception room, kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom; the property needs modernisation throughout. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal serve current connectivity needs, and off-street parking is available.
Important negatives are straightforward: the flat is leasehold with approximately 84 years unexpired, which will require prompt lease extension action and may affect mortgageability. The property sits in an area with above-average crime and local deprivation indicators, and internal fixtures are dated—this is a practical renovation project rather than a move-in-ready home.
Location strengths include nearby local shops, Garth Park open space, and access to Bicester Village rail station and local bus routes. There are several primary and secondary schools rated Good within easy reach. The property is being sold by public auction, so interested buyers should review the legal pack and factor auction timelines into their plans.
