A rare chain-free, three-bedroom ground-floor apartment conveniently positioned for Gloucester city access. The apartment offers a good-size lounge leading to a modern fitted kitchen, principal bedroom with ensuite, two further bedrooms and a family bathroom — practical living for first-time buyers or investors wanting immediate let potential.
Practical benefits include allocated off-street parking, a small private outdoor area and a long lease (108 years remaining). The building presents contemporary, low-maintenance brick construction and a balcony, suited to an urban lifestyle close to bus routes, St Oswald's Retail Park and several well-regarded schools.
Be candid about location-related drawbacks: the postcode sits in a very deprived area with very high crime statistics and a medium flooding risk. Broadband speeds are slow locally, which may matter for home-working tenants. The property’s overall size is small, making it best suited to buyers prioritising location and affordability over expansive living space.
This apartment represents an affordable entry point to the Gloucester market or a lettable investment with clear upgrade potential — cosmetic improvements and broadband/utility upgrades could increase rental appeal and capital value. Leasehold ownership and local area challenges should be factored into mortgage, insurance and rental projections.
