Description
Description
A well-presented top-floor apartment within the distinctive and highly desirable Woodstock Close development, enjoying a west-facing aspect and far-reaching views towards Wytham Woods. The top-floor position provides a peaceful and private setting, while lift access and generous proportions contribute to the light and spacious feel throughout.
The accommodation comprises an entrance hall, a generous sitting/dining room, two double bedrooms, a well-appointed bathroom and a separate kitchen with breakfast bar.
The spacious sitting/dining room provides an inviting setting for both relaxing and entertaining, while the two generously proportioned double bedrooms offer comfortable and versatile accommodation. The west-facing aspect overlooks the communal gardens towards Wytham Woods, providing an attractive outlook, abundant natural light and a particularly pleasant setting in which to enjoy the changing seasons.
The property further benefits from free parking exclusively for residents, together with a bus stop conveniently situated at the entrance to Woodstock Close, providing a regular service to Oxford city centre in approximately 15 minutes. Garage rental may also be available, subject to availability.
An Exceptional Opportunity
The property's attractive asking price reflects the approximately 50 years remaining on the lease, presenting an opportunity to acquire a spacious two-bedroom apartment in a highly desirable North Oxford development at a significantly lower price point than might otherwise be expected for the area.
For buyers prepared to consider the shorter lease, this represents an opportunity to secure a well-positioned top-floor apartment with lift access, far-reaching views towards Wytham Woods, free residents' parking and excellent access to Summertown, Port Meadow and Oxford city centre.
The development also has a notable literary connection: celebrated novelist Graham Greene was formerly a resident, adding a distinctive piece of Oxford history and character to this established setting.
The combination of an attractive purchase price, generous accommodation, an enviable North Oxford location, access to open countryside and its literary heritage makes this an unusual opportunity for buyers seeking value in one of Oxford's most desirable areas.
Situation
The apartment is situated in the popular North Oxford area, within easy reach of the extensive amenities of Summertown, including cafés, restaurants, independent shops and major supermarkets including Marks & Spencer Foodhall, Tesco and Sainsbury's.
The renowned open green spaces of Port Meadow are within a short walk, providing an exceptional natural setting for walking, running and enjoying the outdoors. The combination of proximity to Port Meadow and the far-reaching views towards Wytham Woods gives the property a particularly attractive balance of city convenience and access to open countryside.
Oxford city centre is readily accessible by regular bus services, offering an extensive range of shops, restaurants, museums and cultural attractions, as well as the Westgate Shopping Centre.
For commuters, a bus stop close to the entrance to Woodstock Close provides convenient access to Oxford Parkway Station, from where regular trains reach London Marylebone in approximately 55 minutes.

EPC
EPC Rating: E
Services
All mains services are connected with the exception of gas.
Tenure & Possession
The property is leasehold and is offered for sale with no onward chain.
The lease has approximately 50 years remaining.
The annual service charge is £4,600, managed by Breckon & Breckon. The service charge includes hot water.
Service Charge
The current annual service charge reflects, in part, a period of historic underinvestment within the development, following which contributions have been increased to ensure that the building is appropriately maintained and financially prepared for future expenditure.
As a result of this approach, the development now benefits from healthy reserve funds, providing a stronger financial foundation for ongoing maintenance and future capital expenditure.
Prospective purchasers are encouraged to review the service charge accounts and management information as part of the conveyancing process.
Fixtures & Fittings
Certain items may be available by separate negotiation with Fortnums Estates.
