Newly refurbished two-bed flat with parking and long lease — ideal first purchase or buy-to-let.
Top-floor two-bedroom flat, recently renovated and move-in ready
A recently refurbished top-floor two-bedroom flat offering a compact, low-maintenance home in Staple Hill. The property benefits from a new Howdens kitchen, new Worcester boiler (fitted March 2025), Karndean flooring in wet areas and new carpets throughout — ready to move into with minimal immediate work.
Situated in a purpose-built block, the flat includes an allocated off-street parking space and access to a small communal garden. The location is well placed for commuters and families: close to the Bristol–Bath cycle path, local high streets, shops, cafes and several well-rated primary schools.
Practical details are favourable for buyers seeking security and longevity: a 999-year lease from 2001 (977 years remaining) and reasonable running costs, though the building has an average service charge around £1,500pa and a no-pets policy. Broadband speeds are average and mobile signal is excellent.
Be aware of the property’s physical constraints: total floor area is small (489 sqft) with parts of the home in the attic featuring low, sloping ceilings and limited headroom. The area records higher local crime statistics, which buyers should consider alongside the secure communal entrance and intercom. This flat suits first-time buyers or investors wanting a ready-to-rent home with modest maintenance needs.
