This penthouse apartment occupies the top floor of a handsome Georgian villa in Montpellier, offering bright, spacious rooms and high ceilings typical of period properties. The passenger lift opens directly into the home, leading to an open-plan living/dining room and a modern fitted kitchen. Two double bedrooms each have en‑suite shower rooms, and internal stairs rise to a sizable rooftop terrace with panoramic town views — an excellent social space for summer evenings.
Practical benefits are strong: a detached single garage, fast broadband (FTTC), mains gas central heating and a very long lease with share of freehold (999 years from 2013). The home is sold chain free, with short-term lets and pets prohibited under the management rules — an important point for buyers planning holiday rentals or pet ownership. Service charges are currently about £1,800 per year and are reviewed annually.
Buyers should note this is a period building with solid brick walls likely lacking modern cavity insulation, and the setting is directly on a main road in a busy, cosmopolitan neighbourhood with very high local crime statistics — factors to consider for security and noise-sensitive buyers. The building’s historic character and high ceilings come with typical maintenance responsibilities; some buyers may also wish to check details of management company provisions and any planned works.
Ideal for downsizers or professionals seeking a central Montpellier location close to boutiques, restaurants, Montpellier Park and Cheltenham’s festival amenities, this apartment combines period charm with contemporary fittings and a rare private rooftop terrace and garage in the town centre.
