Set on the ground floor of a Georgian brick townhouse in central Bridgwater, this two-double-bedroom apartment offers straightforward rental potential and practical living space. A large lounge, two double bedrooms and gas central heating make it ready for immediate occupation or tenancy. Full-fibre broadband, excellent mobile signal and nearby permit/off-street parking add to everyday convenience.
The property’s long remaining lease (980 years) and modest ground rent make the legal position simple for buyers. Service charges average £1,333 and ground rent is £150 pa — important running costs to factor into yield calculations. Council tax is very low, which reduces ongoing outgoings for owner-occupiers.
This location suits investors seeking a high gross yield (advertised potential over 7%) or buyers who want town-centre living with easy access to shops, transport and local amenities. Note the surrounding area is classified as very deprived with very high crime statistics and a transitional Eastern European neighbourhood profile; these factors can affect tenant profiles, resale and insurance terms.
Internally the flat shows some dated decor and general wear consistent with a property built 2003–2006 in a traditional layout. There is renovation potential but no indicated structural or flood risk. Prospective purchasers should inspect to confirm condition and consider management costs if letting, as the local lettings market is described as constrained.
