A bright, ground-floor two-bedroom apartment offered chain-free and ready for a new owner to personalise. Set within a modern purpose-built development just south-west of Cheltenham town centre, the flat has direct communal-garden access from the living room and an allocated off-street parking space — practical features for everyday city living.
The accommodation is compact (approximately 449 sq ft) and laid out traditionally with a living/dining room, two bedrooms, a modern-style kitchen and bathroom. The large windows and patio door bring good natural light to the principal room. The property would benefit from minor updating and modernisation throughout, offering a straightforward renovation project for a first-time buyer or investor wanting to add value.
Practical details are favourable: a long lease (about 130 years remaining), mains gas central heating, double glazing, and low council tax. The location offers excellent road links (A40/M5) and is close to GCHQ, local schools including a top-performing secondary, parks and shops. Note some constraints: broadband speeds are slow in the area and local crime levels are above average — factors worth considering for occupation or letting.
Overall this is a compact, well-located flat with clear scope to improve and personalise. It suits a buyer seeking an affordable entry into Cheltenham, or an investor looking for a small, rentable property near major employers and transport routes.
