## Description

A 1 bedroom flat with city views, allocated parking and no chain.

This flat is on the first floor of a substantial period building.  Due to its location at the top of the road, there are some fantastic views over the city and beyond.

Once inside the flat, the accommodation is neatly arranged.

The lounge has the benefit of the large bay window, so it feels lovely & light and there is also a feature fireplace in here.

The kitchen, which is separate to the lounge, has an integral oven & hob, plus space for a fridge/freezer and a washing machine.  Unlike a lot of other flats, there is also a window in this room.

The bedroom is a really good size and has very useful fitted wardrobes.

A real bonus with this flat is the fact that it comes with an allocated parking space and it is being sold with no onward chain.

Due to its proximity to Gloucester Road, the open green space of St Andrews Park, the city centre and Montpelier Train Station( it's within a 5 minute walk), this is a perfect flat for someone looking for a home in a vibrant and central location.

- **Target investor price (1%):** £109,800

Cashflow = rent − mortgage − 10% maintenance − £25/mo compliance; assumes 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term. ROI = annual profit ÷ cash in (deposit + 4% purchase costs).*
