This ground-floor, one-bedroom apartment in Bailey Court has been recently refurbished and presents tidy, low-maintenance living ideal for a first-time buyer or investor. The accommodation is compact but well-presented, with lateral layout, gas central heating and double glazing throughout. The long lease (960 years), no onward chain and low council tax help reduce purchase costs and ongoing bills.
Outside, a private lawned foregarden and off‑road parking to the rear add practical appeal in a city-edge setting. The location provides excellent local amenities along Abbeydale Road, fast broadband and straightforward transport links to the city centre — useful for commuters or renters.
Buyers should note the apartment’s modest footprint (449 sq ft) and small garden, which suit low‑maintenance lifestyles but limit expansion. The local area records above-average crime, which may concern some purchasers; the property sits in a generally affluent neighbourhood with highly qualified residents. Service charge and ground rent are modest (£660 pa service charge, £30 ground rent), and the lease is effectively long-term.
Overall, this is a sensible, move-in-ready option for someone seeking an affordable, well-located city-edge starter home or an investor looking for a straightforward let with good connectivity and low running costs.
