Light-filled and efficiently arranged, this two-bedroom first-floor apartment makes an attractive step onto the property ladder. An open-plan kitchen/living room maximises the 525 sq ft, creating a social hub for cooking, relaxing or working from home. Large windows and neutral decor keep the space feeling airy and move-in ready.
Practical running costs and tenure are strong selling points: a 999-year lease, low service charge (£540 pa) and council tax Band A help keep ongoing costs down. Modern conveniences include mains gas central heating, double glazing (install date unknown) and FTTP broadband for fast connectivity. A communal rooftop terrace and residents’ off-street parking add useful extras rarely found at this price point.
The building dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and has cavity walls with no added insulation assumed, so there is potential to improve thermal performance and reduce bills. The apartment is best suited to first-time buyers or downsizers seeking affordable, low-maintenance city living; investors will note the compact footprint and easy-let appeal.
Location is practical with good public transport links and direct routes to Bristol city centre and major roads. Local amenities include shops, cafes and nearby primary and secondary schools with mixed Ofsted outcomes. The surrounding area is classified as deprived, which may affect longer-term resale values; there is no flood risk and no known building safety restrictions.
