A generous two-bedroom duplex arranged over the top floors of a Georgian-period block, offered chain free and ready for immediate occupation or rental. At 1,130 sq ft the layout feels spacious: a large living/dining room with high ceilings and sash windows, an open-plan kitchen, a study, and a master suite with dressing room and en-suite. Allocated off-street parking is included — a rare convenience close to Gloucester Docks.
Practical aspects are clear: the property is leasehold with 98 years remaining, an annual service charge of about £3,500 and ground rent of £150. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the EPC is E49; these factors will influence running costs. Broadband and mobile reception are good, and the home has potential to achieve a competitive rental return (estimated £1,200 pcm).
Location is a strong selling point for city living: designer outlets, waterside bars and Gloucester Cathedral are all within walking distance, with the train station around 1.5 miles. That makes the apartment suitable for professionals, first-time buyers seeking space, or investors targeting the local lettings market.
Buyers should note the local context: the wider area shows high crime and marked deprivation statistics, and the building’s solid brick construction likely lacks modern wall insulation. This is a characterful urban home with clear benefits and a few practical trade-offs to consider before purchase.
