Southern Road, Leckhampton, Cheltenham, GL53

A 1930’s semi-detached house with a large south-facing garden, offering scope to extend and modernise and situated in a desirable no-through road with a beautiful outlook towards Leckhampton Hill

A traditional bay-fronted 1930’s semi-detached house on the favoured southern side of this desirable road, with a large south facing garden and beautiful views towards Leckhampton Hill. The property benefitted from a loft conversion some years ago and offers tremendous scope for further extension and modernisation. Set well back with a long drive providing plenty of parking and turning space with mature fruit trees alongside. The drive continues to the side of the property (not accessible by car) via secure gates to a detached garage and the rear garden. A wonderful feature of this home is the long south-facing garden with two substantial workshops (potential gym/studio) and a large lawn with fruit trees beyond. The house is approached via an enclosed porch into a hall with the original oak strip floor, staircase to first floor and cloakroom. Two similarly sized reception rooms to the front and rear both have fireplaces and bay windows including a door to the garden at the rear. The kitchen has appliances in situ and a door to the garden. There are three bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor and a fourth bedroom on the top floor. Freehold
