Summary - 16 Park Close OX2 8NP
3 bed 1 bath Apartment
Chain-free, long lease apartment near park and station.
Three good-sized bedrooms with double-aspect sitting room and balcony
Set on the first floor of a mature 1960s development adjacent to Cutteslowe Park, this three-bedroom apartment offers spacious living across about 925 sq ft. The double-aspect sitting room opens onto a balcony, and a recently re-fitted white kitchen provides modern convenience while retaining the building’s period character. A single garage is included close by and well-maintained communal lawns and trees give a pleasant, green outlook.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (share of freehold with c.998 years remaining), gas central heating, double glazing updated after 2002, and easy access to Summertown shops and Oxford Parkway station (around a mile). The property is chain-free and currently let, so it may suit investors seeking immediate rental income or buyers planning a future vacant possession.
Buyers should note material facts plainly: broadband speeds are very slow, the apartment has a single bathroom, and the current service charge averages £1,920 per year. The block dates from the late 1960s, so while well maintained, some communal areas and elements may require ongoing upkeep typical of buildings of this era.
Given the local mix of highly qualified professionals, nearby good and outstanding schools, and low crime in an affluent area, this apartment suits a range of buyers — investors, families needing proximity to schools, or professionals seeking convenient transport links. The layout and size offer renovation potential to improve rental yield or create a more modern family home.
