Flat 8,William Court,Overnhill Road,BRISTOL,BS16 5FL
BS16 5FL
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Comfortable low-maintenance flat with parking and communal facilities.
Ground-floor apartment with private patio overlooking duck pond
A ground-floor retirement apartment set within well-kept communal gardens, looking over a duck pond and with its own private patio. The open-plan living area and separate kitchen suit easy, low-maintenance living, while the double bedroom includes built-in wardrobes for neat storage. Communal facilities include a residents’ lounge, guest suite and 24-hour emergency call and intercom systems, offering reassurance and occasional visitor accommodation.
Practical positives include an allocated parking space, an EPC rating of B and a remaining lease of about 111 years. The development sits on Overnhill Road, a sought-after Downend location close to local shops, bus routes and good primary schools, making everyday errands straightforward and social amenities accessible.
Important considerations: this is a leasehold retirement property with a service charge of approximately £253 per month and an annual ground rent of about £425. The communal setting involves shared maintenance and rules, which may limit some freedoms compared with a standalone house. Broadband speeds are average, though mobile signal is excellent.
Overall, the apartment suits an over-60 buyer seeking a comfortable, low-upkeep home with on-site support and pleasant gardens. It offers clear immediate convenience, but factor in ongoing service charges and the leasehold status when comparing long-term costs.
