Summary - 9 Harescombe Drive GL1 3LE
2 bed 1 bath Maisonette
Light lounge, garden and garage ideal for first-time buyers.
No onward chain, ready for quick sale
A compact two-bedroom first-floor maisonette offering straightforward city living close to Gloucester Royal Hospital. The property has a large, light lounge/diner, a practical fitted kitchen and a modern bathroom, plus an enclosed rear garden that’s easy to maintain. Allocated off-road parking and a single garage under a coachhouse add useful storage and vehicle space.
Important practical details work in its favour for a first-time buyer: a very long lease (approximately 980 years), no onward chain and a council tax band B. The building is double glazed and was constructed in the mid-2000s, so major structural updates are unlikely in the short term.
Be clear on the limitations: heating is by electric room heaters, the EPC is rated D, broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow, and recorded local crime levels are very high. The property is leasehold and maintenance charges and ground rent are to be advised — buyers should confirm these costs. There is also an active public notice regarding an offer; any interested parties should be aware of this when progressing.
Overall, this is a practical, low-maintenance starter home or a compact investment in a well-connected city location. Its size (about 593 sq ft) suits a single occupier, couple or small family wanting easy access to local amenities, transport links and the hospital, provided they factor in heating and connectivity limitations.
