Summary - Basement Flat, 25, Christchurch Road, CHELTENHAM GL50 2NY
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Compact, managed living with lift access and communal services for over-60s.
One-bedroom, 489 sq ft; manageable retirement apartment
This one-bedroom first-floor retirement apartment in Homespa House offers manageable single-level living within a purpose-built, lift-served block on a tree-lined Cheltenham road. The layout includes an entrance hall, lounge with a large window, separate kitchen and bathroom; overall space is modest and easy to maintain. Communal amenities include a residents' lounge, laundry, guest suite, development manager and 24-hour Appello emergency call system, giving added day-to-day reassurance.
Practical strengths include resident and visitor parking, lift access to all floors, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The lease has 97 years remaining and the home is offered as leasehold with mains gas central heating and double glazing (install date unknown). Council tax is very low and there is no flood risk in this area.
Notable costs and considerations are the above-average service charge of £4,792.28 and ground rent of £489.68; purchasers should also enquire about any additional "event fees." The building is older with solid brick walls (no assumed cavity insulation) and the glazing date is unknown, so buyers should allow for possible maintenance or energy-efficiency upgrades.
This apartment will suit someone seeking a compact, low-maintenance home in a managed retirement development close to local amenities, schools and transport. It is best for buyers aged 60+ or couples meeting the age requirement who prioritise communal support and convenience over large private living space.
