A bright, chain-free two-bedroom first-floor apartment in the St Oswalds development, ready for immediate occupation or letting. The living room opens onto a sizable balcony, and the upgraded kitchen and en-suite to the master make the layout practical for everyday living. Integrated smart heating and double glazing keep running costs down; the EPC is a strong B (81).
The property is well suited to first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors. The listing estimates a potential rental income of around £995 pcm and there is an allocated parking space. Communal gardens and nearby shops, gym and Tesco on St Oswalds retail park add convenience, while Gloucester city centre and Quays are within easy reach.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold apartment with 107 years remaining, an annual service charge of approximately £1,625 and ground rent of £225. The building was completed in the 2007–2011 period and the accommodation is average-sized (approximately 679 sq ft), so buyers seeking larger family space may find it constrained.
Location strengths are tempered by local socio-economic indicators: the area is described as very deprived and crime levels are reported as very high. These factors can affect resale values and lettability in some market segments, so prospective purchasers—particularly investors—should factor this into cashflow and insurance considerations.
