Summary - Wells Yard Raleigh Road, Southville BS3 1FL
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact, move-in-ready city flat ideal for first-time buyers near cafés and transport.
Recently renovated purpose-built flat (built 2019)
A compact, contemporary ground-floor apartment finished in 2019 and recently renovated. The open-plan living/kitchen benefits from large windows, integrated appliances and a light, neutral finish — ready to move into with minimal immediate work. The layout is efficient: a larger main bedroom, a smaller second bedroom ideal for guests or a home workspace, and a modern three-piece bathroom.
Location is the strongest asset. Situated in the heart of Southville opposite the Tobacco Factory, the flat is footsteps from cafés, restaurants, Greville Smyth Park and Ashton Gate. Walking or cycling to the city centre is straightforward, and good broadband and mobile signal support home-working.
Lease terms are very long (993 years), which provides tenure security. However, this is a small property (approximately 547 sqft) with a relatively high annual service charge and a modest ground rent. The area has a lively student and nightlife scene and a higher recorded crime level, so it suits buyers who prioritise central urban living over suburban calm.
Heating is electric with a boiler and radiators; prospective buyers should note running costs can be higher than mains gas alternatives. Overall, this apartment offers low-maintenance, contemporary city living with clear investment or first-home potential, provided you accept compact rooms and communal-cost commitments.
