Easy town-centre access with parking and communal garden ideal for practical downsizers.
First-floor one-bedroom flat, bright living room with balcony
This one-bedroom first-floor flat in Old Vicarage Court offers practical, low-maintenance living within walking distance of Coleford town centre. The layout includes a kitchen, shower room and a bright living room with a balcony, plus a communal garden and one allocated parking space. Built in the 1980s and double-glazed, the apartment suits someone seeking easy access to local shops, services and woodland walks in the Forest of Dean.
The property is leasehold and part of a communal retirement classification, so buyers should check the lease length, service charges and any age-related occupancy rules. Heating combines mains gas and room heaters; prospective purchasers may wish to review the heating system for efficiency and any upcoming maintenance needs. The flat is compact at around 442 sq ft, best suited to a single person or couple downsizing.
Local amenities are strong: supermarkets, a library, doctors, leisure facilities and good road links to the M48/M50 are all close by. Note the area records higher-than-average crime levels, so consider security measures and local crime data when viewing. Council tax is very cheap, which helps running costs for a low-maintenance home.
