Lyefield Road East, Charlton Kings, Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, GL53

A charming, double fronted detached home, with parking and gardens on this sought after road discreetly positioned in the heart of Charlton Kings.

Situated on a highly coveted road within a short stroll of Charlton Kings village and Balcarras school, is this delightful detached late Victorian home on a lane where houses rarely come to the market.  Owing to its era, there is sense of light and space, with large rooms, high ceilings and comfortable accommodation extending to over 1900 Sq Ft. 

The current owners have greatly improved the property, enhancing the original details that feature throughout the house whilst contrasting it with a more contemporary approach to the finish and layout.

The typical four square layout has allowed for generous rooms of equal proportions over the three floors.  The hallway, introduces the reception rooms, a double drawing room with feature bay window opens to a further sitting area, both rooms are wonderful spaces, with focal fireplaces and with a set of doors leading out to the garden at the rear. In symmetry, the more formal dining room has a feature fireplace and a lovely vista of the street scene to the front.  Across the rear of the house, overlooking the gardens is the open plan kitchen/breakfast room, a wonderfully social space which is as much for entertaining as it is for family life.

The kitchen area itself is well appointed with a range of neutral units, integrated appliances, and a breakfast island. A cloakroom, utility room and cupboard, are off the inner hallway, and this completes the accommodation on this floor.

On the lower ground floor is a useful basement which the current owners use as a study and play room.

On the first floor, there are four double bedrooms, the principal bedroom has an en suite bathroom and fitted wardrobes.  A shower room serves the remaining rooms.

Outside:
Much of the charm of this lovely family home is the wonderful plot in which it is positioned.  Southerly facing, mature and well stocked it is a green oasis with a charming area of level lawn, interspersed with flower borders and a patio terrace for outside dining.  The garden features a rose wall fence, and wisteria to the external back wall.  There is rear side access to the garage. 

Situation:
Lyefield Road East particular road is lined with pretty period homes making the street scene one of delightful character.  It is a peaceful location, and this particular part of the road is quieter with less foot and vehicle traffic, in the heart of the village and within a short stroll of the boutique shops at Sixways and those on Lyefield Road.  The house offers a short route by foot to both the sought-after Charlton Kings Juniors and Balcarras secondary school.  These two schools are widely known with Balcarras reputed for being one of the top schools in the country.  This, and the vibrant community on offer, has helped to retain the prestigious status Charlton Kings holds as one of the best addresses within the area.
