Set in the sought-after Waterways development, this well-presented one-bedroom flat occupies 559 sq ft and sits just half a mile from Summertown’s shops and amenities. The contemporary fit includes double glazing, integrated kitchen appliances and electric storage heating, making it a low-maintenance urban base with allocated off-street parking.
This property is offered with or without tenants, which suits a buy-to-let buyer or a purchaser wanting immediate occupation. Fast broadband and a very affluent local demographic support rental demand; several high-performing independent schools are nearby, adding wider appeal.
There is a significant practical drawback: 78 years remain on the lease and mortgage lenders may refuse to lend. A lease-extension valuation is underway and costs are to be confirmed; buyers should factor in extension expense and possible lending restrictions when budgeting.
Overall this is a compact, modern apartment with straightforward upkeep and investor potential, balanced by an urgent lease-length issue. Viewings are recommended for cash buyers or investors able to manage lease-extension arrangements.
