Summary - WESTBOURNE HOUSE FLAT 8 WESTBOURNE DRIVE CHELTENHAM GL52 2QQ
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Bright two-bedroom home with communal gardens and residents’ lounge for downsizers.
Ground-floor two-bedroom retirement apartment with communal gardens
Well-positioned on the ground level of a purpose-built retirement block, this two-bedroom apartment offers practical, low-maintenance living for the over-60s. Large double-glazed windows bring plentiful light and a pleasant outlook over well-kept communal gardens, while a spacious open-plan lounge/dining room centres daily life. The building includes residents’ lounges, laundry facilities and communal outdoor space for socialising and fresh air.
The apartment is compact at about 571 sq ft and suits downsizers looking for easy access and communal amenities rather than expansive living space. Heating is via electric storage heaters and the building’s walls are assumed to be solid brick with no modern cavity insulation, so running costs and warmth may be considerations. The double glazing was installed before 2002 and may be older in specification.
This is a leasehold retirement property with a long lease remaining; council tax levels are low. The area is classified as deprived with above-average crime, so buyers should weigh local services and safety. There is no flood risk and mobile and broadband connections are strong, supporting staying connected and practical modern living.
Overall, the apartment is a straightforward, well-presented option for someone seeking a manageable, sociable retirement setting with communal facilities and garden views. It will suit a buyer happy with a compact layout and prepared to consider modest upgrades to heating and insulation for greater comfort.
