Summary - FLAT 2/4, 5, SOUTH FREDERICK STREET G1 1JG
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Large Merchant City one-bed with concierge, gym and strong rental potential.
Very generous 784 sq ft one-bedroom apartment
Set within the landmark GPO Building in Merchant City, this very generous one-bedroom apartment offers 784 sq ft of flexible, character-filled space. High ceilings, tall sash-and-case windows and original classical stonework give the home strong period appeal while internal finishes remain modern and neutral. The building provides concierge, resident’s gym, communal courtyard and lift access.
Arranged on the second floor, the layout includes a long reception hall, a 19 ft living room facing south over Ingram Street, a dining-sized kitchen and a double bedroom with fitted wardrobes. The plan works well for rental demand and two sharers: both the bedroom and living room are sizeable, and the kitchen comfortably serves as a shared dining/prep space. Recent communal roof repairs demonstrate active ongoing maintenance of this converted Victorian landmark.
Practical considerations: the property has electric wet central heating and a gas hob, an EPC rating of D and Council Tax band E. The building sits in a very central, amenity-rich location close to universities, transport hubs and nightlife, which supports strong short- and long-term rental demand, but the immediate area is classed as very deprived, which may affect long-term capital growth and tenant mix.
Overall this freehold apartment will suit investors or buyers seeking a spacious, centrally located period home with strong rental potential. It combines historic character and communal amenities, though energy efficiency and local socio-economic factors should be weighed when budgeting running costs and future value.
