Welcome to Oxford

Alongside Cambridge, Oxford is well known for having one of the finest universities in the world. This naturally makes it an ideal choice for anyone with children looking to make the leap into Oxford University’s prestigious educational establishment, or indeed, take advantage of its many other exceptional schools for those at an earlier stage.

There’s no doubt that its reputation for excellence in this regard is well-founded and well deserved. However, there’s so much more to this south-east city than great grades and top career prospects.

For starters, Oxford has plenty of excellent public transport options. This means that, even if you don’t own a vehicle, the city can open up to the rest of the country and beyond for would-be travellers, thanks to its close proximity to Oxford Airport. It’s also one of the country’s most ethnically diverse areas, but that’s not the only way in which Oxford can be considered a vibrant melting pot.

Culturally, Oxford is an artistic smorgasbord of delights, with several theatres showcasing the finest talents both local and beyond. This is alongside its storied legacy in the world of literature and music: the latter of which lives on through venues like the 02 Academy.

History buffs will also find plenty to whet their appetite here, with a fine selection of museums, as well as historically significant local landmarks such as Oxford Castle and Christ Church, to name but a few. It turns out you don’t need to go to the university in Oxford in order to get an education.

What is Shared Ownership?

Shared Ownership is a government scheme that allows buyers to purchase a share in a property, usually between 10% and 75%, while paying a reduced market rent to a housing association on the remainder. The scheme gives first time buyers and those that do not currently own a home the opportunity to purchase a share in a new-build or resales property.
