Chain-free first-floor period flat with parking and high ceilings in central Banbury.
Grade II listed first‑floor two-bedroom apartment, character features and high ceilings
This chain-free, two-bedroom first‑floor apartment sits within an attractive Grade II listed red‑brick building in the heart of Banbury. The flat combines generous ceiling heights, sash windows, a vaulted sitting room with a feature fireplace and a modern fitted kitchen — character features that suit buyers who value period detail. The apartment is offered with one allocated off‑street parking space and mains gas central heating via a new Vaillant combi boiler.
Practical points are clear: the property is leasehold with 98 years remaining, an annual service charge around £1,200 and a small ground rent of £75. The listed status may restrict alterations and could add complexity or cost to any refurbishment; buyers should factor potential consent requirements into plans. There is no private garden and the surrounding area records higher crime and socioeconomic deprivation than average, which may affect some buyers’ priorities.
The flat suits first‑time buyers or buy‑to‑let investors seeking a characterful town‑centre home close to shops, schools and the railway station. Accommodation of about 816 sq ft provides comfortable living space for couples, small families or sharers; the property is offered in good decorative order but sits within an older building that will benefit from ongoing maintenance attention.
Viewers should check lease details, listed‑building constraints and long‑term parking options (vendor notes possible additional parking in the communal yard). Overall this is a practical, characterful central Banbury apartment that blends period charm with modern convenience, sold with no onward chain.
