The Meadow, Charlton Hill, Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, GL53

Bruton Knowles and Kingsley Evans have been formally instructed to market a unique opportunity to acquire a building plot with planning permission granted for a large detached home of exceptional quality and separate home office accommodation (together circa 7,664 sq ft / 712 sq m) - plus 121 sq m of outdoor living space, nestled within a valley of approx. 20 acres of some of the most spectacular countryside in the Cotswolds.

The consented design is by renowned architect, Richard Hawkes, who has an unparalleled track-record of designing inspirational and pioneering sustainable homes in Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

The Setting:
The Meadow sits sensitively within approximately 20 acres of the most spectacular nd tranquil Cotswold countryside, offering idyllic views of the hills, woodlands and Dingle as well as panoramic glimpses of Cheltenham, some four miles away. The private gated entrance slowly and dramatically reveals this wonderful site, a tree lined driveway gently meandering down past the Home Office towards the property.

The Accommodation:
The design features an amphitheatre style living area on the first floor ("Prospect"), a largely open plan layout that cleverly interacts with a circular terrace and a further outdoor lounge, giving access to the spectacular vistas of the undulating landscape as well as a seamless extension to the living spaces.

The principal bedroom suite and bedroom 5 are located on the "Prospect" floor. Four further bedroom suites are positioned on the ground floor ("Refuge"), one of which could be configured as a home gym. The "Refuge" level also features a cinema room and a snug/library area. All rooms on "Refuge" (except for the cinema) enjoy relaxing views of the tranquil stream and Dingle.

The Home Office:
Planning permission has also been granted for a substantial home office (circa 980 sq ft / 91 sq m), set apart from the main house. This has also been designed by Richard Hawkes to satisfy the same exacting criteria which applied to the main house.

The Situation:
The Meadow is set at the brow of Charlton Hill, an area between the highly desirable Charlton Kings and the sought after villages of Cowley and Coberley. This stunning location is particularly well placed for easy access to motorway and other transport links. Cheltenham, only circa four miles away is rightly regarded as an educational centre of excellence, home to highly rates State Schools and a number of prestigious schools including The Cheltenham Ladies College, Dean Close and Cheltenham College.

Cheltenham is renowned for its vibrant cultural life, packed with wonderful Michelin Star restaurants, lively bars and charming cafes. Host to the world famous Races and prestigious Festivals. Cheltenham also offers the very best of independent high-end and high street shopping.
