Set within The Hendre, a striking Victorian villa close to Montpellier, this ground-floor two-bedroom apartment blends period character with practical urban living. The principal reception room impresses with a panelled ceiling, marble fireplace, tall sash windows and a square bay that floods the space with light. A tidy kitchen and generous hallway with storage complete the living areas.
Both bedrooms are doubles; the principal benefits from a bay window overlooking the communal garden and a useful walk-in wardrobe. The modern bathroom features a large walk-in rainfall shower. Allocated off-street parking to the rear and communal grounds add convenience and a leafy outlook, while pets are permitted in the building—a helpful rarity.
Practical facts are straightforward: this is a share-of-freehold flat with a long lease (about 957 years remaining) and an annual service charge of £1,500. Heating is via electric storage heaters and the double glazing was installed before 2002, so some buyers may wish to upgrade insulation and heating for greater efficiency. Broadband speeds are fast and crime levels are low, but the immediate area scores as relatively deprived, which may affect local amenities and resale considerations.
This apartment will suit a couple or small family who value period detail, central Cheltenham location and easy parking. It also offers appeal to buy-to-let investors seeking a well-proportioned, characterful flat in a desirable town centre position, provided they factor ongoing service charge and potential energy improvements into costs.
