This chain-free, one-bedroom first-floor flat sits in central Didcot and offers straightforward entry to the local market or a low-effort rental investment. With 478 sq ft of living space, the layout includes a living room, separate kitchen and bathroom — a practical arrangement for single buyers or couples. The building dates from the 1983–1990 period and presents a modern, brick-exterior appearance typical of that era.
The property is leasehold with a modest ground rent of £70 per annum and an average service charge of £1,027.06 per annum. Heating is provided by electric storage heaters, which keeps initial costs down but can result in higher running costs compared with gas central heating. The flat is located in an area classed as very affluent with low crime, fast broadband and good local schools, including a nearby outstanding secondary.
Key selling points are the central Didcot location, no onward chain and manageable running costs for council tax. Material considerations include the leasehold status, the service charge, and the electric heating system — buyers should budget for possible future upgrades and check the remaining lease term and any building-specific maintenance plans. Overall, this is a sensible, low-complexity purchase for a first-time buyer or an investor seeking an easy-to-manage rental asset.
