Chain-free one-bedroom close to parks, shops and excellent transport links.
Top-floor Victorian one-bedroom apartment with open-plan living space
Set within a handsome Victorian villa just off The Park and close to Bath Road, this top-floor one-bedroom apartment offers characterful living in a very sought-after Cheltenham location. The open-plan living/kitchen creates a generous social space, while the double bedroom has fitted wardrobes and pleasant outlooks across parkland. Ownership includes a one-sixth share of the freehold and a long lease (circa 955 years), making the tenure straightforward for buyers.
Practical benefits include allocated off-street parking, a well-kept communal garden, gas central heating via boiler and radiators, double glazing, and low local crime in a very affluent area. The property is chain-free, which simplifies a quick move or onward purchase. Service charges are modest for the area at £840 per year, and council tax is described as cheap.
Buyers should note this is a top-floor flat accessed within a period building: there are internal communal stairs and potential for period-related maintenance. The building’s timber-frame construction is noted as having no assumed insulation, and the age of the glazing is unknown. There are signs that parts of the building may need upkeep and attention to avoid damp or wear — practical considerations for budgeting future maintenance.
This apartment will suit first-time buyers or investors seeking a low-hassle central Cheltenham property with good local amenities, parks, and transport links. It provides immediate comfort and strong location appeal, while also offering scope for modest cosmetic updating to maximise long-term value.
