A light-filled one-bedroom top-floor apartment in a handsome Grade II listed building on Lansdown Road, offered chain free. At about 440 sq ft with a long lease and share of freehold, this compact home suits a first-time buyer wanting character close to Cheltenham’s cafés, restaurants and parks.
Period details and high ceilings give the living room a generous feel despite the modest footprint. The double bedroom benefits from a skylight; the separate kitchen and tiled bathroom provide everyday convenience. An allocated off-street parking space and a small garden add rare outside space for a town-centre flat.
There are some practical limits: listed status will restrict external and some internal alterations and could complicate works, and the building’s solid brick walls likely lack modern cavity insulation. Service charges average £1,272 p.a., and the property presents a modest renovation/refurbishment opportunity rather than a full modernisation project.
With a very long lease (977 years) and share of freehold, ownership is straightforward. The location, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal make this a sensible step onto the housing ladder for someone prioritising position, period charm and low council tax over expansive living space.
