This first-floor one-bedroom flat in Montague Hill South offers a compact, city-centre base with genuine potential. At around 497 sq ft the layout includes a separate living room and kitchen, a double bedroom with built-in wardrobes, and a bathroom — a straightforward plan that’s easy to modernise and personalise.
Practical positives include allocated off-street parking, communal gardens, a very long lease (circa 957 years) and chain-free completion. The building is post‑war purpose-built stock with double glazing already installed; service charge and ground rent are stated (£1 ground rent, service charge c. £1,840pa).
The flat does need cosmetic updating throughout and would benefit from modern heating and electrical improvements — it currently uses electric storage heaters. Buyers should factor refurbishment costs in but will gain from modest living area and strong central location close to Stokes Croft, Cabot Circus, BRI and local transport links.
A realistic buyer is a first-time purchaser, downsizer or investor seeking a city rental let; the flat’s compact size and layout suit single occupancy or couples. Be aware the immediate neighbourhood is a busy, cosmopolitan student area with a reported very high crime level; check suitability for your needs and budgets for security or improvement works.
