A well-presented one-bedroom ground-floor apartment in the heart of Stroud, offered chain-free with a long share-of-freehold lease (circa 958 years remaining). The flat has its own private entrance, bright living space and a compact modern kitchen, making it move-in ready for first-time buyers or a straightforward rental for investors.
The building is a Victorian stone property with period character and high ceilings in parts; the apartment benefits from double glazing (installed before 2002), mains gas central heating and communal lawned garden and courtyard. Off-street communal parking at the rear adds convenience in this central location, close to shops, cafes, Stroud station and local walking trails.
Notable practical points: service charge is about £1,080 per year (includes building insurance) and the local area records above-average crime levels — important for buyers to factor into budgets and security plans. As an older stone-built property, external walls are likely uninsulated, so buyers should consider future heating and insulation improvements for comfort and efficiency.
Overall this apartment suits a first-time buyer seeking a central, low-hassle purchase or an investor after a well-located, easy-to-manage rental. Its long lease and share-of-freehold status are strong ownership positives, while communal parking and garden space add lifestyle value despite the occasional maintenance and security considerations typical of older town-centre properties.
