A well-proportioned one-bedroom apartment located on Sansome Street, offering a practical city-centre base or straightforward rental let. The living/dining room benefits from floor-to-ceiling glazing and French doors out to a balcony, bringing good natural light to the principal room. The fitted kitchen includes integrated appliances and the L-shaped double bedroom provides generous space for a single occupant or couple. Secure off-street parking is included, a notable advantage in the city centre.
The building is modern and appears well maintained externally, with lift access and a secure communal entrance. Practical running costs are clear: 108 years remain on the lease, service charges around £1,700 per annum and a small ground rent of £100. Heating is by electric room heaters, which may be more expensive than gas alternatives and is worth factoring into ongoing costs.
This property suits first-time buyers wanting a compact, central home or investors seeking a city-centre rental with good access to Foregate Street station and local amenities. Important considerations: the area records very high crime levels locally and the apartment has no private garden — lifestyle and security measures should be reviewed. Overall, the apartment offers city convenience, a good internal footprint (approx. 667 sq ft) and secure parking, balanced against higher local crime and electric-only heating.
