A rare opportunity to acquire the freehold of a striking, architect-designed building comprising three newly built apartments, offered as a single investment. Inspired by the area’s industrial heritage and set moments from the vibrancy of Cowley Road, the property lies just 1.7 miles from the heart of Oxford, making it ideally positioned for both owner-occupiers and long-term rental demand.
Recently constructed by a highly regarded local developer, the building has been finished to an impressive specification throughout. Each apartment offers light-filled, contemporary accommodation with open-plan sitting rooms and kitchen-diners, featuring sleek quartz worktops and integrated Neff appliances that complement the building’s bold industrial aesthetic. Generous bedrooms are served by refined bathrooms with Italian porcelain tiling and premium Hansgrohe fittings.
The apartments are independently metered and thoughtfully laid out, providing excellent flexibility for buyers. The freehold ownership allows an incoming purchaser to live in one apartment while generating income from the remaining two, or to let all three for a strong and diversified rental return. This arrangement is particularly attractive for parents buying for children at university, investors seeking a turnkey asset, or buyers looking to future-proof their investment with control over the entire building.
Each apartment benefits from its own private outdoor space, with sit-out balconies to the first and second floors and a larger enclosed garden serving the ground-floor apartment. Additional highlights include gas-fired underfloor heating, double-glazed aluminium windows echoing the building’s contemporary design, and the reassurance of a 10-year new-build warranty. Offered with no onward chain, the property is ready for immediate occupation or letting.
The Sunday Times Best Places to Live 2023 included East Oxford for its vibrant community, independent businesses and live music venues, as well as the ease of cycling and walking locally. The city centre is readily accessible on foot or by bike, passing along Oxford’s historic High Street and its world-famous University Colleges.
Cowley Road provides an exceptional lifestyle offering, with access to green spaces, riverside walks along the Thames and Cherwell, a wide choice of independent cafés and restaurants, and Ultimate Picture Palace—Oxford’s only independent cinema. Supermarkets, local amenities and frequent public transport are close at hand, including regular coach services to London from St Clement’s.
A compelling freehold investment in one of Oxford’s most desirable and consistently popular residential locations.
