Bright two-bed apartment with parking and long lease, close to local amenities.
Chain-free ground-floor apartment with long 230-year lease
A contemporary two-bedroom ground-floor apartment in Southmead, offered chain-free and ready to move into. The open-plan triple-aspect living space creates a bright social hub, while a fitted kitchen and modern bathroom provide practical, low-maintenance finishes. With allocated off-street parking and generous internal storage, the layout suits a single occupant, couple or first-time buyer seeking straightforward city living.
The property sits in a well-kept, red-brick development close to local amenities, green spaces and good transport links. The long lease (230 years) and modest ground rent (£100pa) are positive tenure features. Service charge at £2,300pa covers building insurance and communal maintenance but adds materially to annual running costs.
Buyers should note local challenges: the area is classified as very deprived with above-average crime levels and broadband speeds reported as slow. The apartment has no private garden and the second bedroom is smaller, which may limit suitability for some families. Overall this is a practical, competitively priced home for first-time buyers or investors who prioritise location, low initial upkeep and a long lease over private outdoor space and high-speed connectivity.
