Rippington Drive 1 bedroom

This is a well-presented, light and attractive one-bedroom apartment offering good accommodation for up to two people. The value for money reflects the location which is very convenient but in an ordinary working suburb of Oxford. The apartment has just been converted and is freshly decorated and fitted. It consists of a comfortable sitting-room, a double bedroom with twin beds, bathroom, separate toilet, and kitchen. Located in Marston, between North Oxford and Headington, the apartment offers easy access to the city centre, university areas and Headington hospitals, including the John Radcliffe Hospitals, the Churchill Hospital and the Manor Hospital.

  • The sitting-room is comfortable and attractive; the furniture includes a sofa, armchair, bookshelves and cupboard, and there is a TV and DVD
  • The bedroom has twin beds, a fitted wardrobe with hanging and shelf space, and bedside table
  • The kitchen is well-equipped for guests' use and includes a fold-away table and chairs for dining; the washing machine/dryer is separately housed in a cupboard in the hall
  • The bathroom combines bath and overhead shower; it is very attractively tiled and has a heated towel rail; there is a separate toilet
  • On the first floor (above a Weekly Home short-let two-bedroom apartment) with its own separate entrance
  • The apartment has a very fresh, bright aspect; decorated in light, neutral colours it also enjoys a lot of sunlight throughout the day. At the back it overlooks a park with playground
  • Separate private garden with table and chairs, plus a lockable bike shed
  • Off-street parking for one car 

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.
