A well-presented two-bedroom retirement terrace positioned in a popular over-60s development, offering comfortable, low-maintenance living with private outdoor space. The house sits on a southerly plot overlooking manicured communal gardens and is within easy walking distance of local shops, Tivoli, Cheltenham Promenade and a bus stop directly outside.
Internally the home is practical and bright: entrance hall with cloakroom, a rear living/dining room with patio doors to the private garden, a well-equipped kitchen and two double bedrooms with built-in storage. The development provides useful communal facilities including a full-time house manager, 24-hour emergency call system, communal lounge with an active social programme and a guest suite for visitors.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold with 110 years remaining, a high annual service charge (£4,032) and a substantial ground rent (£812), and heating is by electric room heaters which can be more costly than gas alternatives. The building dates from the 1950s–1960s and walls are assumed to be uninsulated cavity construction, so buyers should consider energy-efficiency improvements.
This home suits retirees or downsizers seeking a social, managed development with private outside space and garage parking. It is offered with no onward chain, allowing a quicker move, but purchasers should budget for the service charge, ground rent and potential heating/insulation upgrades.
