This is an extremely well-located, comfortable one-bedroom apartment providing excellent accommodation for one person or a couple. The flat consists of a large living room with an open plan dining area, a bedroom with two single beds, kitchen and bathroom. It is located in Oxford's most desirable residential area, the Summertown area of North Oxford, 1.75km from Oxford city centre, with frequent buses passing directly in front of the flat along the main Banbury Road.

• The spacious living area is attractively furnished with a leather sofa and armchair, pine dining table and four chairs. It is south-facing, with a door opening directly onto the peaceful communal gardens and a small patio with table and chairs.
• The bedroom is south-facing too, with twin beds and a large wardrobe. It also has a door opening onto the patio and garden.
• The kitchen is fully equipped with washing-machine and dryer, dishwasher and fridge with icebox, and the bathroom combines bath and overhead shower.
• Quiet and peaceful, set in private grounds with no through traffic; guests enjoy the garden, with its squirrels, many types of birds and lovely birdsong.
• Off road parking.

Access to the city centre
The bus journey to the city centre takes 5 minutes and the service is frequent. Alternatively the walk to the city centre takes 20 minutes and is very pleasant: straight down the Banbury Road/St Giles, taking you past North Oxford's distinctive Victorian Gothic architecture and university buildings.

Local area and amenities
The flat is a 10-minute walk from the exclusive Summertown shopping area, which has all the shops you will need (including quality supermarkets and chemists), as well as excellent restaurants and bars, and a leisure centre with indoor swimming pool and sports facilities. Also 10 minutes away are the beautiful University Parks (open to everyone) where you can walk, picnic, punt on the river and watch cricket in the summer.
