A bright, contemporary two-bedroom apartment in the heart of Bath, arranged around a generous open-plan kitchen/living area. The property benefits from lift access, a communal rooftop garden and secure bike/bin storage, making city-centre living convenient and low-maintenance. It is offered with vacant possession and no onward chain, ready for immediate occupation or let.
Practical running costs include an annual service charge of £2,357 and ground rent of £315. The lease has approximately 111 years remaining — sufficient for mortgage purposes but shorter than a newly created lease and worth noting for future buyers. There is no dedicated parking and private external amenity is limited to communal areas.
Located above the Southgate shopping area, this flat places shops, cafes, the bus and rail stations, and cultural amenities within easy walking distance. The accommodation’s modern finish, double glazing and gas central heating suit first-time buyers seeking a low-fuss city base or investors targeting strong rental demand in a central student and professional market.
Buyers should be comfortable with the town-centre setting: busy pedestrianised streets, very high local crime statistics, and shared communal spaces. Overall, this is a compact, well-presented apartment that offers immediate convenience and rental appeal, balanced against ongoing service charges and limited private outdoor space.
