Abingdon is a thriving market town which benefits from an extensive range of leading schools and amenities. Park Crescent occupies a beautiful central position overlooking Albert Park.

The park, together with the surrounding Victorian and Edwardian houses, was laid out by Christ's Hospital of Abingdon from 1860. The park today offers a wonderfully peaceful environment, with over 200 species of mature trees. The location offers the best of both worlds, being surrounded by the trainquility of the park, yet within minutes walk of Abingdon and St Helen and St Katharine (SHSK) schools as well as a host of state and other independent schools, along with the town's extensive shopping facilities, including a Waitrose supermarket, and an M&S Food Hall, and regular farmers markets.

Abingdon has extensive sports and leisure facilities, including a thriving leisure centre, several gyms, rowing, tennis, rugby, and sailing clubs, and riverside footpaths and trails. Communications are excellent with the A34 within a short drive, linking to the M40 and M4, and Didcot Parkway Station (15 minutes' drive) offers a fast train service to London Paddington (37 minutes). Heathrow Airport is a 1-hour drive.
