Summary - 79 FLAT 4 SPRINGFIELD ROAD BRISTOL BS6 5SW
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Quiet central flat with outdoor space, ideal for first‑time buyers or investors.
Private entrance and small rear garden with enclosed front courtyard
Set within an attractive mid‑Victorian Bath stone building, this lower‑ground/ground garden flat offers a calm, private entrance on a quiet no‑through road yet is only minutes from Gloucester Road’s cafés and Cabot Circus. The layout provides a large sitting/dining room, two well‑proportioned bedrooms, a modern bathroom plus separate WC, and direct access to a private rear garden and enclosed front courtyard — a rare outdoor benefit for central flats.
The apartment is well suited to a first‑time buyer or buy‑to‑let investor seeking city convenience with outside space. Mains gas central heating, a generous lease (share of freehold) and modest service charges support straightforward ownership. Vaulted storage and built‑in shelving add practical storage; the sitting room’s size makes it the principal living area for dining and entertaining.
Buyers should note the setting within a high‑crime, very deprived local area classification — local street safety and neighbourhood conditions may be a concern for some. The building dates from before 1900 and external walls are traditional Bath stone with assumed no added insulation; there may be thermal and maintenance issues to consider. Service charge is approximately £1,200 pa and parking is on‑street via the Kingsdown residents’ scheme.
Overall this is a compact, characterful city garden flat with clear potential for a comfortable long‑term home or rental, balanced by practical considerations around local area profile and older building fabric.
