A 1950's 3 bedroom semi-detached family home forming part of this popular Garden City development
Property Oracle says ..
This three-bedroom semi-detached house in Lock Crescent, Kidlington, OX5 1HG, is presented as a family home. The property’s location is a key advantage, situated close to several well-regarded primary schools (West Kidlington Primary and Nursery School, St Thomas More Catholic Primary School, both rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted) and within reasonable distance of secondary schools like Gosford Hill. Transport links are also strong with Oxford Parkway train station approximately 1.56km away, offering convenient access to Oxford and beyond. The property itself is presented in a clean and functional state. The interior images suggest a need for modernisation, particularly in the kitchen and bathroom. The kitchen appears dated, and the bathroom could benefit from updating. While the property includes a garden, its size is modest. The presence of a concrete structure in the garden might somewhat limit its usability. The list price of £385,000 requires further analysis concerning the plot size to determine whether it represents good value. Nearby comparable properties range in price, indicating some variation in value depending on size and condition. Overall, this property offers a functional family home in a convenient location, but potential buyers should budget for some modernisation work.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
