Compact, characterful top-floor apartment in central Cheltenham with parking and long lease.
Top-floor Georgian apartment with high ceilings and period character
This top-floor one-bedroom apartment sits in the heart of Regency Cheltenham, combining classic Georgian proportions with a recently refurbished kitchen and open-plan living. At 39 sq m (420 sq ft) the accommodation is compact but well laid out: a bright living/kitchen, a double bedroom and a white bathroom suite. An allocated off-street parking space and gas central heating add practical convenience in a central location.
The property will suit first-time buyers or city-centre investors seeking a low-maintenance buy with immediate rental potential (current estimated rent £850 pcm). The long lease (954 years) and share of freehold reduce long-term tenure concerns, while the modest annual service charge (£960) and zero ground rent keep running costs predictable.
There are some material limitations to note: the flat is small, with period sandstone walls likely lacking insulation and secondary glazing fitted rather than full modern double glazing. The EPC is D. The immediate neighbourhood is cosmopolitan and lively but records very high crime levels, which may affect desirability for some buyers or renters. Overall, this is a compact, characterful city-centre apartment with good short-term convenience and rental prospects, best for buyers prioritising location and low entry cost over generous living space.
