An Oxford educational campus in one of the city’s education and healthcare districts is being brought to market by Bidwells.
Located at 26 London Road in Headington, the 2.5-acre campus is a former preparatory school and nursery, with existing buildings extending to approximately 37,887 sq ft. The site is being offered with vacant possession and is available as a whole or in part, by way of occupational lease or freehold.
The existing campus provides a range of educational facilities including classrooms, specialist teaching spaces, a theatre, music rooms, science laboratory, gym and dining room, alongside extensive outdoor space with landscaped grounds, playgrounds, a sports court and parking.
Subject to necessary planning consents, the site could be suited to a range of future uses including student accommodation, co living, BTR, residential, medical or charitable.
Oxford is one of the UK’s leading centres for education, science and innovation, anchored by the University of Oxford and complemented by Oxford Brookes University, leading schools and world-renowned healthcare and research institutions. The city’s strong academic and knowledge-based economy continues to attract students, researchers, businesses and investment, supporting demand for high-quality educational, research, office and healthcare accommodation.
Situated approximately 1.9 miles from the city centre, the property is just a short 10-minute walk to Oxford Brookes University’s Headington Campus and close to the University of Oxford’s Old Road campus and the city’s major hospitals and research facilities.
Frequent bus services provide direct access to Oxford City Centre, London and Oxford Parkway, while Oxford Railway Station is approximately 2.5 miles away, offering regular services to London Paddington, Birmingham and the Southwest.
Bidwells is seeking offers on an unconditional or conditional basis for the whole or part of the site, subject to contract.
