Location and access

The apartment is in a two-floor terrace house consisting of one other two-bedroom ground floor apartment (which is also available as a Weekly Homes short let).  The apartment is very well located for the city centre, 1.75kms away. This takes 10 minutes to reach by the frequent bus service, 10 minutes by the cycle track, or 20 minutes walking through the University Sports Grounds and the University Parks. North Oxford and Summertown are the same short distance away. It is also very near the Headington hospitals, including the John Radcliffe Hospitals, the Churchill Hospital and the Manor Hospital, the University Medical Departments, and Oxford Brookes University. Marston adjoins the Oxford Ring Road just south of Headington Roundabout so offers easy access to the M40/London in one direction, and to the A34 and South Oxfordshire in the other direction. 

 Local area and amenities

The area is a typical residential area inhabited by working families. Excellent nearby bus services go to the city centre, the John Radcliffe Hospital and North Oxford/Summertown. Within five minutes' walk there are shops including a supermarket, delicatessen, chemist and take-away. The River Cherwell is very nearby with some popular riverside pubs, the beautiful University Parks are adjacent, and the Ferry Sports Centre with indoor swimming pool and other sports facilities is ten minutes' away.
