Description

Being Sold Via The Modern Method of Auction - A Unique Opportunity to Build a Bespoke Home in Prestbury

An exceptional opportunity to acquire a prominent corner plot of land located at the junction of The Bank Road and Idsall Drive, within the sought-after Prestbury Conservation Area in Cheltenham. Full planning permission has been granted for a beautifully designed, contextually sympathetic self-build home, created by the renowned Coombes Everitt Architects.

The approved plans feature a two-storey residence with a loft dormer, thoughtfully designed to sit comfortably within the surrounding architectural landscape and in particular, complementing the nearby Grade II listed Idsall House. Please note, the images are CGIs to give an impression of the final build, this is of course subject to change and your own specification.

Design Overview


The proposed home is set centrally within the plot, ensuring privacy and reducing any impact on neighbouring properties. The design prioritises natural light, flexible living spaces, and architectural sensitivity to the local environment.

Ground Floor


A welcoming entrance hall leads to a cosy family snug, cloakroom, and an expansive open-plan kitchen/dining space at the heart of the home. The layout also includes a separate study, ideal for home or hybrid working, a utility room, and a generous single garage. Pocket doors between the family room, hall and kitchen allow for versatile use of space.

First Floor


Four spacious double bedrooms, each with its own ensuite, offer excellent accommodation for a growing family.

Loft Floor


A fifth double bedroom and an additional bathroom complete the accommodation, with the loft level carefully designed to avoid overshadowing neighbouring properties.

The overall design has been conceived to enhance privacy, avoid direct overlooking, and sit harmoniously within the existing streetscape. The roof ridge height will remain below that of Idsall House and aligned with neighbouring buildings to respect the area’s massing and character.

Location & Amenities


Ideally positioned within Prestbury's established urban area, the site enjoys easy access to Cheltenham Town Centre, well-regarded local schools, and excellent transport links. Located just off the High Street, it’s within walking distance of village amenities and adjacent to the open green space surrounding the War Memorial.

Additional Features

  • Secure off-street parking for up to four vehicles

  • Electric car charging point

  • Internal cycle storage

  • Pedestrian access from The Bank Road with attractive street presence

This plot offers a rare chance to create a one-of-a-kind, architect-designed home in a prestigious and character-rich setting. A perfect project for those looking to self-build in a highly desirable and sustainable Cheltenham location.
