Light-filled two-bedroom apartment set on the second floor of a handsome Georgian terrace in Portland Square. High ceilings, large sash windows and an open-plan reception create a spacious, airy living space with leafy elevated outlooks onto mature lime and cherry trees. The fitted kitchen, two double bedrooms and two bathrooms suit professional couples, first-time buyers or investors seeking a city-centre rental with strong natural light.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (circa 977 years), no flood risk, chain-free sale and eligibility for an annual central parking permit (up to two vehicles). Communal areas are well presented and there is dedicated bin storage and a shared courtyard garden — useful extras for an inner-city home.
Buyers should note important constraints: the building is listed which will limit certain alterations and can complicate permissions and maintenance. The area records very high crime levels and is classed as very deprived, which may affect living experience and rental appeal. The building’s stone walls likely lack modern insulation and the glazing install date is unknown, so further energy upgrades could be needed and running costs should be considered.
Overall this apartment offers striking period character, generous room proportions and a prime central location close to Cabot Circus, Stokes Croft and public transport links. It will suit purchasers who value light, character and convenience and who accept the trade-offs of listed status, urban location and potential retrofit works.
