This chain-free one-bedroom apartment sits within a converted Grade II listed church just off Kingswood High Street, combining dramatic Gothic features with recently fitted contemporary finishes. High arched windows and very high ceilings give the open-plan living space real character and generous natural light, while the fitted kitchen includes integrated appliances for immediate use. The property has an allocated parking bay and access to well-kept communal grounds reached through secure gates.
The home is compact (approximately 463 sq ft) and laid out for efficient living: entrance hall, open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, double bedroom with a dressing area, and a modern shower room. The long lease (996 years) and no ground rent are strong ownership positives, and electric car charging is available in the car park. Service charge is modest at £1,216.44 per year and includes buildings insurance.
Buyers should note this is a listed building: the Grade II status may limit external and internal alterations and could make future changes more complicated and costly. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, which may affect running costs depending on usage. The wider area shows higher crime and local deprivation indicators; viewings will help you judge if the immediate neighbourhood suits you.
This apartment will suit someone seeking a distinctive, low-maintenance city home near shops and transport — ideal for a first-time buyer wanting character and convenience rather than a large family home. Viewing is recommended to appreciate the scale and light the conversion delivers and to weigh the listed-building constraints against the rare setting and long lease.
