Set within a modern 2007–2011 development, this two double-bedroom, two-bathroom flat offers 740 sq ft of open-plan living with a balcony and allocated off-street parking. The layout includes an open-plan kitchen/lounge, en-suite to one bedroom, lift access and a practical 106-year lease, making it straightforward for first-time buyers or investors. Council tax is low and the property is offered chain free.
The location puts shops, eateries and St Oswalds Retail Park on the doorstep, with Gloucester train station about 0.7 miles away for commuting. Nearby schools include an Outstanding primary and a Good secondary, and local mobile signal is excellent; broadband speeds are average. The building benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and a typical service charge and ground rent for a modern block.
Important considerations: the property sits in an area with very high crime levels and significant local deprivation, and there is a medium flood risk for the locality. Annual service charge (circa £1,700) and ground rent (£225) apply. The flat is average-sized and may suit those seeking practical modern accommodation rather than a large family home.
Overall this property will appeal to first-time buyers seeking a ready-to-move-in city flat or buy-to-let investors after a low-maintenance, centrally located unit. The combination of lift access, balcony and allocated parking gives everyday convenience, while the lease length and chain-free sale reduce transactional friction.
