Characterful one-bedroom lower-ground flat with private garden and unbeatable Redland location.
Private west-facing garden; very secluded for a city flat
This one-bedroom lower-ground flat sits within a handsome Victorian semi on Redland Grove, a highly desirable pocket of BS6. The apartment offers an open-plan living/kitchen, generous storage (including a covered bike store and loft space), and a private west-facing garden — a rare city-centre oasis. The long lease (954 years) and low ground rent make the tenure straightforward for buyers.
Location is the standout: Redland Train Station is about a minute’s walk away, Gloucester and Cheltenham Roads are close for shops and cafés, and the city centre is within walking distance. The flat is currently tenanted, so it will suit an investor wanting immediate rental income or a buyer prepared to wait until the tenancy ends in April 2026 to move in.
Practical points are clear and honest. The total internal area is compact (approx. 468 sq ft), and as a lower-ground property it has slightly different light and access compared with upper-floor flats. There are references to potential damp in the imagery notes — a buyer should commission a survey to check decoration, ventilation and any remedial work.
Service and running costs are reasonable: a service charge of about £1,200 pa (£100/month) and a ground rent of £20 pa. Council Tax Band B is modest for the area. Overall this is a strong value proposition for a first-time buyer or buy-to-let investor seeking character, location and a private garden in Redland.
