This 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment in Headington, Oxford, is listed for £270,000. The property is located on London Road within the Quarry & Risinghurst locality. The property’s proximity to several well-regarded schools such as Headington Quarry Foundation Stage School (Outstanding Ofsted rating) and Endeavour Academy (Good Ofsted rating) is a definite advantage for families. Transport links to Oxford city centre and other locations are relatively accessible via public transportation, although travel times would need to be further confirmed.

The exterior of the property appears well-maintained from the provided pictures, however, the interior photos reveal some need for modernisation or refurbishment. The carpets appear dated and worn, and an update to the décor and fittings would enhance its appeal. The kitchen and bathrooms look functional but could benefit from upgrades.

The property offers access to communal gardens, providing some outdoor space. However, it’s important to note that these are shared spaces, not a private garden. The lack of specific plot size data makes it difficult to accurately assess the amount of outdoor space available. Overall, the property appears to be a reasonable option for buyers seeking a centrally located two-bedroom apartment within close proximity to local amenities and good schools; however potential buyers should factor in the costs associated with some necessary modernisation of the interior. The property’s price appears competitive based on comparable nearby listings, but the absence of detailed square footage for those comparisons introduces some uncertainty to this assessment.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
