Tenure
Knowing the tenure of the property is important because it affects your rights to use the property and the costs of ownership.
Freehold means you’ll own the property and the land it's built on. You'll usually be responsible for the maintenance of the property and have more freedom to alter it.
For flats and maisonettes, the freehold is sometimes shared with other properties in the same building. This is known as a share of freehold.
Leasehold means you'll have the right to live in the home for a set amount of years (specified in the lease). The landlord (the freeholder) owns the land, and if the lease runs out, ownership of the property will go back to them. Lease lengths that are less than 80 years tend to be more complicated and can cause issues with mortgage lenders.
You can extend a lease but this can be expensive. If you'd like to make changes to the property, you'll likely need the landlord’s permission. You're also likely to have to pay an annual amount for ground rent and services charges which can be subject to change. It is good practice to check additional leasehold costs that will apply to the property and factor this into your budget considerations.
Shared ownership is a form of leasehold in which you buy a percentage of the property and pay rent on the share you do not own. You may be able to buy the remaining share at an extra cost. When you wish to sell the property, you may need permission to do so.
Commonhold is a type of freehold ownership for a property that's within a development. A commonhold or residents’ association owns and manages the common parts of the property (like stairs and hallways). You'll need to join the commonhold association and contribute towards maintaining the development. It is good practice to check additional costs that will apply to the property and factor this into your budget considerations.

Being sold using the Reservation fee process. Reservation fee is a new, innovative and pioneering process for buying and selling property. It significantly reduces the risk of gazumping or double-selling by offering security to both parties by gaining a commitment from both parties to buy and sell.
This property is offered for sale using the Reservation fee process. When an offer is accepted, the buyer will be required to pay a non-refundable Reservation fee of £6,600 including VAT (in addition to the final negotiated selling price), sign the Reservation Form and agree the Terms and Conditions prior to solicitors being instructed. If you require a copy of these documents, or for further information, please contact the Reservation fee team at goto Group. This will secure the transaction and the property will be taken off the market.
Superbly presented, light and spacious apartment set on the ground floor of the old Sandford Mill House which was converted in the late 1980s. Based on the river the apartment complex has excellent access to riverside footpaths and easy access into Oxford city - although the setting feels firmly within the countryside!
Positioned perfectly for those wanting to access the Oxford Business Park, Oxford Brooke’s or the Headington Hospitals - both by bike or car.
The property itself has it’s own private access through maintained landscaped gardens. Upon entering the first thing you notice are the high ceilings and the light and spacious rooms. The entrance hall leads onto all living spaces. The traditional shaker kitchen to the front of the property has retro tiled worktops but is fully equipped with modern appliances.
The bathroom is also to the front of the property and is fully tiled around the bath with integrated shower.
The master bedroom and the living room both lead out onto the private courtyard garden to the rear which is a lovely feature, and a sun trap in the morning for a summer breakfast.
The master bedroom is extremely spacious with fitted wardrobes but ample room for more furniture if needed. A super king bed would not look cramped in the space.
The living room is again filled with natural light with three large windows. Again the room is far bigger than a traditional one bedroom property and can be divided into a dining area and living area without feeling cramped.
Storage is also available in both an airing cupboard and a handy under-stairs cupboard under the access space for the property above.
This property would be a fantastic primary residence on the edge of the city, a private pied-a-terre or a high quality AirBnB and is available to the market with no onward chain.
One not to be missed. Please check the Yopa diary for bookable viewing sessions as we do not expect this property to be on the market for long.
