Step into a compact, ground-floor apartment in the heart of Old Market, offered with no onward chain. The open-plan living area opens via French doors to a private courtyard garden that catches sun throughout the day — a rare outdoor spot for city living. Two bedrooms and a modern three-piece bathroom make this a practical city-base or rental unit.
Practical features include double glazing, electric heating, and communal bike storage. The property sits within secure communal gates and is a short walk from Temple Meads, Cabot Circus and a wide range of independent shops, cafés and pubs. Permit parking is available from the council at around £30 per year.
Notable considerations are the apartment’s small overall size (approx. 441 sq ft) and electric heating, which may be less economical than gas alternatives. The neighbourhood shows high crime levels and is classed as very deprived, factors that may affect some buyers’ lifestyle choices and rental profiles.
The flat is leasehold with 194 years remaining and an annual service charge of about £1,250. That long lease and the central location make the property suitable for first-time buyers seeking an affordable route into city living, or for investors looking for a straightforward buy-to-let in a well-connected area, but buyers should budget for service charges and assess local demand given the neighbourhood profile.
