Compact city-centre apartment with long lease and rental potential.
Grade II listed Gothic Revival former church conversion with stained glass
Long lease (164 years) and share of freehold reduce tenure risk
Compact 428 sqft — efficient one-bedroom layout, small overall size
Potential rental income circa £825 pcm (income opportunity)
Electric storage heating; no gas central heating — higher running costs possible
Listed status restricts alterations; listed-building consent likely required
Area classified as deprived with above-average crime — local risks
Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal; close to city centre and station
Set within a Gothic Revival, Grade II listed former church, this one-bedroom apartment offers character features such as arched windows and stained glass while sitting a short walk from Worcester city centre and Foregate Street train station. The compact 428 sqft layout is efficiently arranged with a double bedroom, separate living room, fitted kitchen and a bathroom — ready to occupy or let immediately.
The property benefits from a long lease (164 years remaining) and a share of freehold, reducing long-term tenure risk. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support modern living or short-notice lets. A stated potential rental income of £825 pcm suggests strong income prospects for an investor or a first-time buyer seeking a buy-to-let starter.
Buyers should note material constraints: the Grade II listing means alterations will be restricted and will require listed-building consent. The apartment relies on electric storage heaters and main electricity fuel, which can be more costly than gas alternatives. The surrounding area is classified as deprived with above-average crime rates — important for both owner-occupiers and lettings considerations.
This is a compact, character-rich home suited to a single occupant, couple or investor who values location, long lease security and period detail but is prepared to accept listed-building constraints and the local area challenges.
