Lansdown Road, Cheltenham, GL51

Ref: DD1204 Dominic Dore eXp. Situated in the prestigious Lansdown area of Cheltenham, this generously proportioned two-bedroom top-floor apartment forms part of the well-regarded Thorncliffe development, just a short walk from Cheltenham Spa railway station, Montpellier and the town centre.

Offered to the market chain-free, the apartment occupies a particularly desirable position on the fourth and top floor, enjoying stunning far-reaching views and an unusual degree of privacy. With no adjoining apartments to either side, it has an almost penthouse-like feel.

A wonderfully spacious central entrance hall creates an immediate sense of space on arrival and leads through to the principal rooms. The apartment has been cleverly positioned to make the most of the natural light throughout the day: the living room and private balcony face east, capturing the morning sun and some wonderful sunrises; the rear of the apartment enjoys a southerly aspect; while the bedrooms face west, benefiting from the afternoon and evening light.

Recently refreshed with new carpets and areas of redecoration, the apartment extends to over 800 sq ft and combines generous proportions, high ceilings and an abundance of natural light.

The spacious reception room features large double-glazed windows framing the leafy outlook and opens directly onto the private east-facing balcony,  a lovely spot for a morning coffee while enjoying the sunrise and far-reaching views.

The separate kitchen is also generously sized and fitted with an electric hob, oven and extractor fan, with space for an under-counter fridge, freezer and washer/dryer, together with ample worktop and storage space.

There are two comfortable double bedrooms, with the principal bedroom benefiting from a dual aspect and, like so much of the apartment, wonderful elevated views across the surrounding area.

The bathroom is fitted with a bath with shower over, low-level WC and wash hand basin with pedestal, together with additional storage. Further storage can be found within the particularly spacious entrance hall, which is large enough to comfortably accommodate a dining table and chairs, creating an additional and versatile dining area if desired.

The building itself is approached through an impressive double-fronted entrance and sits within well-maintained communal gardens. There is ample unallocated residents' parking to both the front and rear of the development, while the apartment also benefits from its own private en-bloc garage. A lift provides convenient access to all floors.

With its top-floor position, exceptional natural light, private balcony, garage and wonderful far-reaching views, this is an ideal home for buyers looking for generous living space and a peaceful setting, while remaining within easy reach of some of Cheltenham's most desirable areas.

Situation

Cheltenham is a true treasure trove of culture, elegance, and convenience. The apartment is ideally positioned being within a short walk to Montpellier, offering an excellent selection of shops alongside independent boutiques, cafés, and highly regarded restaurants.

The cultural scene is exceptional, with the Everyman Theatre and cinema, as well as internationally renowned music, jazz, and literature festivals that define the town’s social calendar. Cheltenham is also home to the world-famous Cheltenham Gold Cup, and offers an outstanding dining scene including The Ivy, Montpellier Brasserie, No. 131, Le Champignon Sauvage, and Lumiere, among many others.

Families are extremely well served, with prestigious schools, including Cheltenham Ladies’ College, Cheltenham College, Pate’s Grammar School, St Edward’s School, and Dean Close School. The town also offers superb leisure facilities including golf, swimming, tennis, and hockey.

Connectivity is another standout feature. The property is within a short walk of Cheltenham Spa railway station, offering direct services to London Paddington (around 2 hours), Bristol (40–50 minutes), Birmingham, Cardiff, and beyond. Multiple bus routes, plus easy access to GCHQ, the M5 motorway, and the A40, make this an ideal commuter base while retaining Cheltenham’s vibrant lifestyle.

 
Exciting Building Developments

Within the past year, residents have successfully acquired the Right to Manage, giving owners direct control over the future of the building. This milestone places residents firmly in the driving seat for service charges, day-to-day management, and planned works, and has already enabled the establishment of a healthy and growing sinking fund.

A proactive board of resident directors works closely with neighbours and has ambitious plans for the development, including enhancing communal areas, improving kerb appeal, investing in long-term maintenance and sustainability, and fostering a stronger sense of community. These improvements are designed to enhance both the building and long-term value for all residents.

This is a fantastic opportunity to purchase a chain-free apartment within a well-managed development that is clearly going places.
