Woodlands Road, Witney, Oxfordshire, OX28 2EF

>>>UNDER OFFER<<< This generously proportioned top floor apartment has a sunny southerly aspect & its own garage. Sensible outgoings, a share of the freehold and over 950 years remaining lease make it the ideal first-time purchase!

THE PROPERTY:

Occupying the top floor of a well-managed residential building set within communal grounds at the end of one of the town's most prestigious addresses, this top floor offers something increasingly rare in the leasehold market: a share of the freehold, a peppercorn ground rent, and service charges that reflect responsible management rather than the inflated figures commonplace in newer developments with lifts and little else to justify them. The lease extends to over 950 years.

The twin southerly and eastern aspects of the living room makes for a light interior further improved by a sylvan outlook.

There is a generous double bedroom (the gross internal floor area of this apartment is actually larger than some modern 2 bedroom apartments in the town) with a refitted shower room adjacent.

The kitchen would benefit from refitting, but features a practical serving hatch into the living room. Being on the top floor brings the additional benefit of warmth retention and the absence of overhead noise.

Ther is also garage and access to unallocated residents' parking. Double glazing is in place throughout, electric heating serves the property.

Outgoings: Ground Rent £0 and Service Charge £1200.00 per annum payable every 6 months on 1st Oct and 1st April each year. West Oxfordshire District Council - Tax Band B

SITUATION:

Quietly positioned at the end of a no through road convenient for Woodgreen and public transport that runs along the nearby Woodstock Road. This apartment is also situated on the best side of the town for those who wish to commute along the A40 or use the mainline service to Oxford and London Paddington from Hanborough – about 5 miles away with journey times of 10 and 63 minutes respectively. Witney was described in the national press as a "beautiful 'must-visit' Cotswolds market town". It is positioned about 10 miles to the West of the dreaming spires of Oxford on the banks of the River Windrush. 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.
