20a, Gilda Close, Bristol, BS14 9JX

Chain free, freshly redecorated and ready for its next chapter, this two-bed first-floor flat with its own private entrance and private garden is a fantastic opportunity for first-time buyers, couples, downsizers or investors.

With new carpets, a newly fitted kitchen and bathroom, much of the hard work has already been done — leaving you to move in, unpack and start making it feel like home.

Tucked away on Gilda Close, the location makes everyday life easy.

Whitchurch and Hengrove offer a great selection of local amenities, while Wells Road is nearby for independent shops, cafés and everyday essentials.

Hengrove Leisure Park provides plenty of options for keeping active and entertained, while Hengrove Mounds Nature Reserve offers green space when you fancy escaping for a walk.

Regular bus services along Wells Road also provide convenient links into Bristol city centre. One of the lovely things about this flat is having your own private entrance.

Open the front door and a staircase leads up into your hallway, giving the property a little more separation and that feeling of arriving home to a space that's completely your own.

The front-aspect living room/diner is light and welcoming, with a feature half-bay window adding character and drawing in plenty of natural light.

There's room to create a cosy living area for putting your feet up at the end of the day alongside a bistro table for morning coffees, dinner for two or catching up with friends over a bottle of wine and a takeaway.

The newly fitted kitchen enjoys a rear outlook and offers a fresh blank canvas for cooking and entertaining.

With a range of wall and base units alongside space for freestanding appliances, there's everything you need for trying out new recipes, preparing an easy midweek dinner or making a lazy weekend breakfast with the radio playing in the background.

There are two bedrooms, both freshly decorated and ready for their new owners to decide how they should work.

Create a calming principal bedroom and use the second for guests, a dressing room or that all-important home office — or simply enjoy having a proper second bedroom for when friends and family come to stay.

The newly fitted bathroom features a bath with handheld shower, WC and hand basin, creating a fresh and relaxing space for getting ready in the morning or enjoying a long soak at the end of the day.

And then there's something you don't always expect with a flat — your very own private garden.

It's a generous space with plenty of potential and, while it would benefit from a little attention, that's also part of the opportunity.

Add some colourful pots, outdoor seating and perhaps a few festoon lights and you could create a lovely little retreat for summer BBQs, drinks in the sunshine, growing a few herbs or simply enjoying having your own outdoor space without leaving home.

Freshly decorated, newly carpeted and with the kitchen and bathroom already taken care of, this is a home where you can concentrate on the enjoyable part — adding your furniture, pictures and personality.

Chain free and ready to go — arrange your viewing today and come and imagine collecting the keys to your first home, unpacking the boxes and making Gilda Close your own.
