Feels Brand New & Sits Right Beside The Canal – What A Combo!

This beautifully presented two-bedroom first-floor apartment feels every bit like a brand-new home.

With two allocated parking spaces, secure entry, and a dedicated, lockable bike store on site, this is a property that blends style with day-to-day practicality. The lease has 997 years remaining, and for investors, there’s a strong rental return potential of £1,250pcm – with zero ground rent.

Location Highlights

Set in the heart of Wichelstowe, this apartment enjoys one of Swindon’s most sought-after positions. The biggest standout here is the location – just a few steps from the peaceful Wilts & Berks Canal. Take a right along the towpath for a relaxing walk to Waitrose and the popular Hall & Woodhouse restaurant, both offering waterside seating and a real community vibe. Head the other way and Mill Lane leads you straight into Old Town, one of Swindon’s most characterful neighbourhoods, filled with coffee shops, pubs, bakeries and green spaces like the beautifully kept Town Gardens – perfect for picnics, weekend strolls or open-air concerts.

This part of Swindon is known for its balance of natural space and connectivity. Whether you're commuting to London (under an hour from Swindon Station), heading out on the M4, or just enjoying your local surroundings, you’ve got it all here. Excellent schools are nearby too, which makes this area popular with professionals, young families and investors alike.
