Summary - Flat 8 Stow Court, Gloucester Road, CHELTENHAM GL51 8ND
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Chain-free 1-bed flat near Cheltenham town centre and station — ideal starter home or buy-to-let.
Compact 1-bedroom, approximately 375 sq ft
A compact, open-plan 1-bedroom apartment tucked to the rear of a modern block, this second-floor flat suits a first-time buyer or a low-maintenance buy-to-let. At about 375 sq ft the layout is efficient: a dual-aspect sitting room with breakfast-bar kitchen, a double bedroom and a fitted bathroom. Presented with gas central heating and double glazing (installed before 2002), it is ready for immediate occupation.
Practical advantages include a long lease (100 years remaining), low ground rent (£45 p.a.), very cheap council tax and residents’ permit/off-street parking. The location is a strong selling point — close to Cheltenham town centre, Cheltenham Spa station and local amenities, with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal for working from home.
Matters to note: the flat is small and will appeal to buyers comfortable with compact living. The glazing is older and may need replacing in time. The wider area records higher crime levels, which buyers should consider; this affects both living comfort and lettability. The building dates from the early 1990s, so cosmetic updating or kitchen/bathroom modernisation could increase value.
Overall this chain-free apartment offers low running costs and strong connectivity for a purchaser seeking an affordable city-centre foothold or a straightforward rental investment. Viewings are recommended to appreciate the light, layout and proximity to transport and services.
