Rippington Drive 2 bedroom

This is a well-presented, light and attractive two-bedroom apartment offering good accommodation for up to three 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 double bedroom, a second single bedroom, open-plan kitchen and living area, and bathroom. 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 main bedroom has a double bed, a cupboard with hanging and shelf space, and bedside table
  • The second bedroom has one bed, a wardrobe, chest of drawers and beside table
  • The open plan kitchen is very well-equipped with all appliances visitors might need; the compact living area includes a sofa and chair and flat-screen TV. A fold-away table and chairs are available for dining
  • The bathroom is very attractively tiled and decorated and combines bath and overhead shower; it has a heated towel rail
  • On the ground floor (with a Weekly Home short-let one-bedroom apartment above) with its own separate entrance
  • The living area is very bright and south-facine, with double doors opening onto a patio with table and chairs and an attractive private garden 
  • 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, beyond the garden, it overlooks a park with playground
  • Off-street parking for one car and lockable bike shed

Location and access

The apartment is on the ground floor in a two-floor terrace house consisting of one other one-bedroom first 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, and the University Medical Departments, and Oxford Brookes University. Marston adjoins the Oxford Ring Road just south of the Headington Roundabout, providing easy access to the M40/London in one direction, and the A34/South Oxfordshire in the other.

 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, newsagent, 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.
