Set within the characterful Old Drill Hall, this one-bedroom maisonette combines Edwardian features with contemporary open-plan living. High ceilings and large windows create a bright, airy space; the living and kitchen area is sociable and well suited to everyday life or entertaining.
Offered chain free with vacant possession, the property is in very good condition and ready to move into, while still offering scope to personalise. At 461 sq ft the layout feels generous for a one-bedroom home and is likely to appeal to first-time buyers seeking a distinctive city-base close to transport links and amenities.
Practical details are straightforward: long lease (977 years), double glazing, electric boiler and radiators, and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal. Buyers should note the leasehold status, an annual service charge (approximately £1,071) and a small ground rent (£100).
This location is central and convenient for Bristol Temple Meads, Cabot Circus and the Old Market scene of cafés, bars and shops. However, the immediate neighbourhood is a multicultural, student-heavy area with very high recorded crime rates and high area deprivation—factors to weigh for residents or landlords.
