Set in the heart of Gloucester city centre, this one-bedroom open-plan flat offers a compact, convenient base for a first-time buyer or a buy-to-let investor. At 524 sq ft it provides a bright living/dining room, a double bedroom and an ensuite — all within easy walking distance of Gloucester Train Station, Gloucester Quays and local amenities. Chain free and presented as a straightforward purchase, the flat suits someone seeking an affordable city-centre home or rental with immediate letting potential.
Important practical points are honest: the property uses electric room heaters (no confirmed gas central heating), and broadband speeds in the area are very slow. The neighbourhood records very high crime levels and the site has a medium flood risk; these factors will affect insurance and tenant demand and should be weighed into budgeting.
Accommodation is compact but well laid out, with good natural light and high ceilings reported in the living space. Council tax is very low, and the flat is offered with long tenure details shown (999 years) but tenure records contain conflicting entries — buyers should check the legal title and services before exchange. Overall this flat suits buyers prioritising location and price over outdoor space and high-spec utilities.
