A programme of maintenance work has started this September on one of Common Ground’s flagship managed properties, St Georges Park Oxford, three miles from the city centre. The external redecoration of the sought-after listed gated development, that sits in 12 acres of landscaped gardens, will cover maintenance of the roof and windows, exterior decoration and garden maintenance.

St George’s Park is a mixed tenure development of 172 properties, a combination of new build flats and houses with a 170-year-old manor building (122 properties) as the centre piece. Common Ground was appointed by the residents in 2015 to manage the property. The redecoration project will take around a month to complete.
