Summary - FLAT 503, BECKFORD HOUSE, 1, CARMEN BECKFORD STREET BS1 3FD
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Contemporary one-bedroom near Stokes Croft for first-time buyers or investors.
Top-floor with private balcony and clear city views
Top-floor, one-bedroom apartment in Beckford House offers a bright, low-maintenance city base with a private balcony and clear roofscape views. At 569 sq ft, the layout suits a single occupant or couple seeking easy access to Stokes Croft’s cafes, nightlife and creative amenities. Built in 2020, the home is presented in a contemporary style with integrated kitchen appliances and twin-aspect windows that maximise daylight.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (997 years), fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful for remote working — plus communal outdoor seating and secure mid-rise living. The service charge is modest for a modern development at about £1,080 per year and council tax is very cheap, keeping running costs predictable.
Be honest about running and neighbourhood realities: heating is by electric room heaters, so energy bills may be higher than gas-heated homes. Crime levels in the immediate area are reported as high; prospective buyers who prioritise security or quiet may wish to investigate further. There is no private garden — outdoor space is limited to the balcony and communal areas.
Overall, this apartment is a low-maintenance city pad with strong rental appeal or first-home potential for buyers who value location, light and contemporary finish. It’s best suited to someone who wants an urban lifestyle close to independent shops, frequent buses and a short cycle into the city centre, while being aware of higher local crime statistics and electric-only heating.
