This well-presented one-bedroom ground-floor apartment offers low-maintenance living in Great Western Park, Didcot. The open-plan living and kitchen is bright thanks to two bay windows, and a large built-in cupboard provides useful storage. The double bedroom faces the private residents' parking area and the property benefits from gas central heating and double glazing.
At about 460 sq ft, the apartment suits a first-time buyer or an investor seeking a rentable one-bed close to transport links. Didcot Parkway offers direct trains to London Paddington (around 40 minutes) and local amenities include schools, shops, green spaces and the Orchard Centre. The development was built between 2007–2011 and has communal bike and bin stores plus an allocated parking space.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold and the sale process for this listing involves buyer vetting and two upfront fees described in the sales information — an exclusivity fee (£2,000) and a processing fee (£200). These are required by the seller’s chosen buying process; the exclusivity fee is stated as refundable on completion. Buyers should verify lease length, service charges and confirm all fees and legal arrangements before committing.
Overall this is a compact, ready-to-live-in apartment in a very well-connected, affluent area. It offers good commuter links and low running maintenance, but prospective purchasers should be comfortable with leasehold ownership, the additional buying fees described, and the modest floor area.
