A large Regency first-floor apartment in the heart of Montpellier, arranged over 703 sq ft with impressive 10ft ceilings, tall sash windows and original moldings. The sitting room is a standout space for entertaining, while a separate study/store offers useful workspace or extra storage. The fitted kitchen and bathroom are modern and functional, making the flat ready to occupy with minimal immediate work.
Practical benefits include a long lease (965 years remaining), share of freehold ownership, gas central heating and a chain-free sale—attractive for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. Service charge is modest at £1,560 per annum and council tax is in Band B. On-street permit parking is available and broadband and mobile signal are good.
Material considerations: the building is Grade II listed, so external and many internal alterations will be restricted and repairs may be more costly. The property sits in a very high crime area, which may affect some buyers and insurance costs. The building’s solid-brick construction likely has limited insulation, which could mean higher heating costs unless improved (subject to listed-building consent). Some internal decor appears dated and would benefit from updating to maximise value.
