priced out of my area looking at bloxham now

[youngalistai]

After failing to find a older non estate house detached with largish back garden in surrey for myself or my price range in surrey i click on the odd pic of houses for sale in banbury bloxham area....Dont know anything about the place but it appears oldy but its 1.5 hours from where i currently live im on checkatrade so i guess it should not be too much of a problem for work. I just wonder if its too quiet? i go to the pub most evenings so would be nice to be in a place thats not too chavy and has a few lively pubs not clock tickers why is banbury much cheaper? what are the downsides?
