Seller Insight This stunning first-floor two-bedroom apartment occupies an attractive Grade II listed 18th-century building with a rich local history right in the heart of the vibrant market town of Brackley. Originally a hunting lodge, the building later served as a music school for the adjacent Magdalen College School before being converted into several mews’ cottages and flats. Set between the High Street and fully maintained communal gardens, 5 Brackley Lodge Mews enjoys a double aspect and all the benefits of electric gated access to the side. The current owner says, ‘the apartment is like a quiet oasis away from the hustle and bustle of the town, yet everything is just a short walk away. In addition, it’s close to Oxford and several wonderful National Trust properties, and London and the Midlands are easy to access.’ Nearby Banbury, Bicester, and Oxford Parkway all offer mainline services to London. This split-level property has generous proportions and boasts high ceilings, original fireplaces, and sash windows. ‘I’ve found it very comfortable, easy to maintain, and worry-free to lock up and leave, making it the perfect home for someone frequently traveling for work or pleasure.’ Ensuring the property has been kept updated, the owner has carried out a complete redecoration in a gentle colour palette and fitted the sitting room with bespoke floor-to-ceiling bookshelves and cupboards. Further elevating the property is oak flooring in the kitchen, a new en suite shower room, and fitted wardrobes in both bedrooms.

‘The gardens, car park, and driveway are all maintained for communal use – the whole area is lovely to sit in to read a book in the shade or enjoy the afternoon and evening sun.’

‘I have super neighbours; they’re a sociable and friendly group. We’ve shared many happy suppers, Christmas parties, and barbecues together.’

‘It’s been very reassuring to live somewhere where everyone looks out for each other.’

‘The property is a short walk from the marketplace, Waitrose, and several independent shops, including an excellent bookshop. There is a fine terraced coffee shop and wine bar on the ground floor of the town hall.’

‘As an avid reader, this fantastic home has offered me a great choice of places to sit and read.’

‘Having owned many properties in my life, I can honestly say this is the nicest place I’ve ever lived. I’ve loved the proportions, the privacy and security, and the brilliant location.’* * These comments are the personal views of the current owner and are included as an insight into life at the property.
