Brook Street, Watlington, OX49

Property

The accommodation is arranged around a central entrance hall, where a useful recessed area provides space for a compact study or home-working setup.

The sitting room is a particularly attractive space, with a generous south-facing box bay window bringing in plenty of natural light. The room feels bright and spacious and opens directly into the kitchen, creating a practical and sociable arrangement. The kitchen has been fitted in a contemporary shaker style, with oak worktops, integrated fridge and freezer, gas hob, electric oven and useful overhead storage.

The double bedroom also enjoys a southerly outlook and incorporates a substantial built-in wardrobe with hanging and shelving space. The bathroom is well arranged with a bath and overhead shower, wash basin and WC.

The property is held on a long lease with approximately 979 years remaining and includes a share of the freehold. The driveway and garage are held under a separate but similar long leasehold title, also with a share of the freehold.

Outside

The property is approached through a gated courtyard shared by the four flats, providing an attractive communal outside space. To the front of the flat is an additional open lawned area, while the driveway leading towards the garage provides useful off-road parking.

The single garage forms part of a separate block and offers valuable additional storage or secure parking, a particularly useful feature for a property so close to the centre of town.

Location

The flat is particularly well positioned within Watlington, with the shops, cafés, pubs and everyday amenities of the High Street around a four-minute walk away. Watlington is a historic market town at the foot of the Chiltern Hills, offering a good range of independent shops and local services together with sports facilities including football, cricket, tennis, squash and bowls.

The surrounding countryside is a major part of the town's appeal, with the Chiltern Hills providing excellent opportunities for walking and cycling. The Ridgeway National Trail passes close to the town, while red kites are now a familiar sight over the surrounding landscape.

With its combination of a central position, south-facing accommodation and the added benefit of parking and a garage, the flat provides a particularly convenient base from which to enjoy both Watlington and the surrounding Chiltern countryside.
