Shotover View, Craufurd Road, Oxford £180,000

We love the sense of light and space this apartment offers, particularly the generous living room opening onto its own balcony. With two bedrooms, a practical layout and attractive communal gardens, there is plenty to enjoy here. The shared lounges and cafe also offer somewhere to catch up with neighbours, bringing an extra social dimension to life at Shotover View.

Set within the established over 55's Shotover View development, this upper floor apartment is approached through communal areas with lift access. Inside, the entrance hallway provides access to the main rooms, with useful storage helping to keep everyday essentials neatly tucked away.

The spacious living and dining room is a welcoming place to put your feet up or spend time with friends and family. Neutral décor and soft carpeting create a comfortable feel, with room for sofas, furniture and a dining table. Double glazed doors bring in plenty of natural light and open onto the private balcony, extending the living space outside. Residents also have access to communal seating areas, including a bright lounge and cafe with large windows overlooking the grounds.

Opening off the living room, the kitchen feels connected while retaining its own defined space. Wood-effect wall and base units are complemented by light worktops and tiled splashbacks, providing plenty of storage and preparation space. An electric hob sits beneath a stainless-steel extractor, while a window brings in natural light. Wood-effect flooring completes this practical room.

The main bedroom is a generous double with space for a bed, wardrobes and additional furniture. A large window and neutral decoration give the room a bright, restful feel. The second bedroom offers flexibility, whether you would like somewhere for visiting guests, a study or a room for hobbies. The wet room includes a level-access shower area, wash basin and WC, with white tiling and a contrasting mosaic border. A separate WC with a wash basin is a useful addition when guests visit.

The private balcony is a lovely feature, with decked flooring and an outlook towards surrounding greenery. It offers a welcome spot to step outside and enjoy some fresh air. The development’s communal gardens feature established trees, shrubs and planted borders, with paved pathways winding through the grounds. These shared outdoor spaces provide an attractive setting to enjoy throughout the seasons.

Shotover View sits on Craufurd Road in a residential area of Oxford. A bus stop directly outside the development provides connections to Cowley and Oxford city centre, making it convenient for shopping, meeting friends and enjoying the city’s cafés and cultural attractions. The development combines independent apartment living with communal spaces where residents can relax and socialise.
