<p>This stunning two-bedroom first-floor share-of-freehold apartment forms part of an impressive former Grade II listed coaching inn, converted to now comprise just eight individual homes. Rich in character, with exposed rustic beams and a striking mezzanine level, the property beautifully fuses period charm with modern living in the very heart of Wantage. Offered for sale with the balance of a 999-year lease and an allocated parking space, the apartment opens into an impressive double-height reception room, where the warmth and character of the original building are immediately apparent. The living space is framed by traditional exposed beams, with French doors opening onto a Juliette balcony, while the modern fitted kitchen provides a stylish contrast to the historic surroundings. Thoughtfully converted in 2017, the accommodation also includes a bedroom with built-in storage and a contemporary shower room, alongside its characterful mezzanine area at the heart of the home. Importantly, the leaseholders are themselves members of the Management Company, giving them a direct say in the management of the building and its service charges, while benefitting from a peppercorn ground rent. Offered to the market with no onward chain, this charming and highly individual home presents a rare opportunity to own a piece of Wantage's history, just a stone's throw from the Market Square.</p><p>what3words. w3w.co/<a target="_blank" href="https://what3words.com/ranches.freshest.quietly">ranches.freshest.quietly</a>.</p><p>Utilities.

Located in the beautiful Vale of the White Horse, the town offers easy access to the A34, M40, M4, and nearby rail services via Didcot, Oxford, and Swindon. A lively Market Place, packed with a mix of familiar names and independent shops, sits alongside family-friendly cafés, restaurants, parks, and community events.

It's a Town where heritage, safety, and community spirit come together, making everyday family life feel both easy and inspiring. Families benefit from an excellent local education network.
