This bright first-floor flat combines Victorian character with practical living across 743 sq ft. The triple-aspect sitting room and high ceilings give a generous feeling throughout, while a compact fitted kitchen and two bedrooms suit a couple or small family. The property is offered chain free and comes with a long lease (999 years) and share of freehold, simplifying ownership.
Practical benefits include allocated secure gated parking for one car and gas central heating via a boiler and radiators. The development sits close to Cheltenham town centre, with shops, restaurants and public transport within easy reach. Contemporary fittings sit comfortably alongside original brickwork and large arched windows.
Notable costs and issues are stated plainly: the current service charge is £3,175.36 pa (vendor advises this includes previously uncollected payments and is likely to reduce to around £2,000 pa), and ground rent is £100 pa. The building is solid brick with assumed no cavity insulation, which may affect heating costs and could merit insulation works. Local recorded crime levels are very high — an important consideration for some buyers.
For a first-time buyer seeking character, convenient central living and secure parking, this flat offers a straightforward move with long lease security. Buyers wanting lower running costs should budget for potential insulation or heating improvements and take the service charge explanation into account when comparing ongoing costs.
