Private lower-ground entrance with direct terrace access
Set on the lower ground floor of a handsome Victorian building, this spacious garden apartment offers single-level living with private access and long lease security. The principal sitting room opens via French doors onto a private terrace with far-reaching views across the Severn Valley to Bredon Hill and the Cotswolds, while a separate dining area and fitted kitchen provide practical, everyday space.
Accommodation includes two principal bedrooms plus a smaller occasional bedroom/dressing room, a family bathroom and a second cloakroom/en-suite. Character features such as sash bay windows, engineered oak flooring, ceiling cornicing and a wood-burning stove add period charm. Gas central heating and secondary glazing help with comfort year-round.
Outside, residents enjoy a private terrace, well-maintained communal gardens and one allocated parking space with visitor bays. The long lease (986 years) and share of freehold give ownership clarity, though the property sits within a communal retirement-style complex and the current lease prohibits holiday letting.
Practical points to note: the EPC rating is D, the stone walls are likely uninsulated, and the service charge is currently £3,552 per year. Broadband is delivered at slower FTTC speeds in this area, though mobile signal is excellent. These factors should be weighed alongside the apartment’s generous space, period character and attractive outlook when considering a viewing.
