This top-floor, two-bedroom apartment in Avonmouth Village offers a chain-free, ready-to-view option for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. At 539 sq ft the layout is compact with an open-plan living/kitchen under two skylights, allocated off-street parking and easy motorway access to the M4/M5. The long lease (979 years) and low flood risk are practical ownership advantages.
The building is modern (2003–2006) with double glazing and neutral finishes; the living space feels light thanks to skylights. Electric panel heaters provide warmth but will increase running costs compared with gas central heating — budget accordingly. Council tax is very cheap, broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, supporting home working.
Notable concerns are the property’s small overall size and its location in a deprived area with above-average crime; both are important for buyers weighing long-term lifestyle or rental prospects. The apartment is leasehold with a small ground rent (£150) and may incur extra costs for leasehold paperwork or pack fees.
Overall this flat suits someone seeking an affordable, low-risk entry into homeownership or a straightforward investment close to local shops, transport links and primary/secondary schools. A practical refurbishment or minor upgrades could increase appeal and rental yield.
