Mary Ellis Way, Witney, Oxfordshire, OX29 7BH

A light, spacious and thermally efficient maisonette with plenty of storage, access to outdoor space and allocated parking. Available immediately.

THE PROPERTY:

A first-floor maisonette with the independence and security of a house, offering exceptional practicality without the usual flat compromises.

Own entrance and private hall set this property apart immediately. The ground-floor landing serves as your own vestibule; stairs rise to a roomy upper landing — a genuine rarity — whose substantial wall area provides hanging space for art or visual interest. The main bedroom is enormous for a property of this type and size, and characterful, flooded with natural light. The reception area, triple-aspect and naturally zoned into kitchen, dining, and living spaces, flows seamlessly and accommodates integrated appliances that, along with the washing machine will be included in the sale. . A good-quality bathroom serves the principal spaces.

The storage breakthrough solves most flat-dwellers' chronic grievance: a deep walk-in cupboard off the upper hall, complemented by a dedicated timber shed securing bulkier items — bicycles, tools, seasonal goods. This alone transforms the liability calculation.

Thermally efficient with a B EPC rating, sealed unit double glazing, and gas central heating — unusually rare in properties of this type, which typically rely on electric systems — this property delivers measurably lower running costs and minimal maintenance burden. Allocated parking for one vehicle sits near the front door, removing commuting friction entirely. Shared outdoor space is accessible.

The price is for the seller’s 34% share. Sparrow Housing Association (formerly Sage) staircasing allows progression towards 100% ownership. Tax Band B £1997 per annum estimated £490.56 rent monthly inclusive of Service charges.

SITUATION:

The property is within about 6 miles of a mainline rail service to Oxford and London Paddington from Long Hanborough (with journey times of 9 and 69 minutes respectively) and conveniently placed for commuting to Oxford along the A40. The house is a few minutes journey from Cogges Farm, Church of England Primary School, Tesco convenience store and doctors surgery.

Witney is a thriving market town on the edge of the Cotswolds about 10 miles to the West of the dreaming spires of Oxford. Its location on the banks of the River Windrush led to the manufacture of high quality blankets known the world over until the last mill was closed in 2002. Some manufacturing remains and the town is home to Christy & Co - hat makers since 1773 to people such as the Royal family and Don Corleone in the Godfather films! Much of the town's fine architecture reflects the wealth of the woollen trade in its heyday. The rich variety of shops, good schools, street cafes, and excellent sporting facilities coupled with higher order services that include a hospital greatly add to the quality of life.

We are required by law to conduct anti-money laundering checks on all those selling or buying a property. Whilst we retain responsibility for ensuring checks and any ongoing monitoring are carried out correctly, the initial checks are carried out on our behalf by Lifetime Legal who will contact you once you have agreed to instruct us in your sale or had an offer accepted on a property you wish to buy. The cost of these checks is £75 (incl. VAT), which covers the cost of obtaining relevant data and any manual checks and monitoring which might be required. This fee will need to be paid by you in advance of us publishing your property (in the case of a vendor) or issuing a memorandum of sale (in the case of a buyer), directly to Lifetime Legal, and is non-refundable. We will receive some of the fee taken by Lifetime Legal to compensate for its role in the provision of these checks.
