About this property

  • Set within a charming tree-lined road in a central Cheltenham location, this exceptional three storey house combines all the grace and grandeur one would hope for in a period property with sympathetically chosen contemporary design themes.

    Beautifully lit by quintessential sash windows, a hugely fluid three storey layout offers a wealth of versatility. Extending across approximately 1609 sq. ft. an impeccably presented interior retains an abundance of character effortlessly blending the warming tones of wood floors with a refined heritage palette, dado rails and elegant cornicing. High ceilings and an excellent interplay of living spaces generate a wonderful feeling of space, while a self-contained lower ground floor apartment benefits from its own private entrance and access to the garden, making it a tremendous proposition for multi-generational living or Airbnb visitors.

    The raised ground floor accommodation unfolds from a marvellously styled hallway onto two outstanding interconnecting reception rooms that unite to generate a wonderful open plan yet delineated space in which to relax and entertain. A classic log burner nestles within the fireplace of the superb sitting room lending a welcoming focal point, while a wide archway allows the notable dimensions to flow into the equally impressive dining room. Commendably appointed with painted shaker cabinetry topped with wood countertops, the kitchen is fully fitted with a first class array of integrated appliances. Opening onto a secluded covered terrace, the timber framed bi-fold doors allow the walled garden to play an integral part of daily life. The cohesive aesthetics continue upstairs where two spacious bedrooms each proffer ample storage with fitted wardrobes. Looking out onto the colour and greenery of the gardens below, an enviable principal bedroom has a further wood burner in its fireplace, and together these two rooms share a contemporary shower room and a separate luxurious bathroom with a superior heritage suite that includes an indulgent freestanding roll top bath with an overhead rainfall shower.

    On the lower ground floor, the attention to detail and high levels of presentation are echoed throughout a self-contained one bedroom apartment that offers a host of possibilities. Its generous arrangement has a fantastic reception room with a wood floor, a considerable bedroom, a large kitchen/utility area and a bathroom.

    The house is situated on an attractive tree-lined road with parking available outside. The bi-fold doors of the kitchen invite you out into a walled garden where a small covered terrace is ideal for al fresco drinks. An easy to maintain Astroturf lawn is bordered by colourful flowering shrubs and roses, and a paved path leads down to a defined seating area.

The proximity to town is amazing. Less than 600 metres to John Lewis - what is not to love?
