Offered chain-free, this spacious one-bedroom basement apartment sits in the heart of Gloucester city centre. The flat benefits from a private low-maintenance courtyard, a modern fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, and a bright living/dining room — an appealing package for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors seeking immediate rental potential.
Practical strengths include a long lease (965 years), EPC rating C (75), and an estimated rental income of £725 pcm. The property has mains gas heating via boiler and radiators, double glazing, and fast broadband availability, making it suitable for professional tenants or an owner-occupier wanting central, well-connected living.
Buyers should note this is a basement apartment: there is a medium flood risk for the area and the building is of solid brick construction with assumed lack of cavity insulation. The neighbourhood records higher crime levels and the wider area is classified as very deprived — factors that will influence resale and letting demand. An annual service charge of £1,225.71 applies and the property sits in Council Tax Band A.
Overall, the flat offers clear value for those prioritising central location, long leasehold security and rental potential, but it will suit buyers who accept basement living, want to manage area-related risks, and possibly undertake modest maintenance or improvement works.
