About this home

A one-bedroom apartment on Oliver Road, OX4, featuring an enormous private rear garden, private driveway parking and bay windows. Offered with no onward chain and a share of the freehold, with a lease extension to 999 years currently in progress. Call today to arrange your viewing.

An enormous private rear garden, two off-road parking spaces and original Art Deco features make this one-bedroom apartment on Oliver Road a particularly appealing opportunity. Offered with no onward chain and a share of the freehold, with a lease extension to 999 years currently in progress, the property combines character, practical features and potential to adapt the accommodation in the future.

The apartment retains a collection of original features, including a wooden and tiled fireplace, 1930s doors and Bakelite hardware. These details give the interior a distinctive identity, while attractive bay windows complement the property’s character. For buyers who appreciate the craftsmanship and style of homes from this period, there is plenty here to enjoy.

The bedroom benefits from a built-in double wardrobe combination, providing useful storage and helping maximise the available floor space. Full gas central heating, served by a combi boiler, and uPVC double-glazed windows add everyday comfort and practicality.

The fully fitted kitchen includes plumbing for a washing machine and space for a fridge freezer with a power socket. A door opens directly from the kitchen into the private rear garden, making it convenient to step outside with a morning coffee or take meals outdoors during the warmer months.

The enormous garden is a standout feature, offering an impressive amount of private outside space for a one-bedroom apartment. Designed for low-maintenance enjoyment, it incorporates artificial grass, patio paving and decorative pebbles, with a paved pathway leading to a decking area and wooden garden shed. The layout provides a choice of spaces for outdoor seating, dining and entertaining, alongside useful external storage. Fully private and accessed directly from the kitchen, the garden forms a substantial extension of the home’s usable space.

The property also benefits from both front and rear access, adding convenience when bringing through bicycles, shopping or garden items. Two off-road car parking spaces are another significant advantage, offering an unusual and valuable provision for an apartment of this size.

There is also potential to explore conversion and extension to create a two-bedroom property, subject to the necessary permissions, consents and building regulations approval. This offers an additional point of interest for purchasers seeking a home with scope to evolve alongside their needs.

Oliver Road is well positioned on the Cowley and Headington borders, with access to local shops, supermarkets and everyday amenities. The location is convenient for Oxford’s business parks, MINI Plant Oxford and Headington’s hospitals and university facilities, making it a practical base for buyers working across the eastern side of the city.

Nearby Hollow Way and Horspath Road provide bus connections towards Oxford city centre and Headington, while access to the Eastern Bypass supports journeys beyond the immediate area. The setting combines an established residential neighbourhood with connections to the city’s shopping, employment and transport facilities.

With its original character, substantial private garden, two off-road parking spaces and potential for future adaptation, this apartment offers a compelling combination of features. A share of the freehold, an ongoing lease extension to 999 years and no onward chain add further appeal.

Contact us today to arrange your viewing and appreciate the character, outside space and possibilities this Oliver Road apartment has to offer.
