Hillfort Close, Leckhampton, Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, GL53

A stunning, reimagined family home in a prime Leckhampton location, offering exceptional space, style, and top-tier schooling

Nestled in a fantastic position close to Leckhampton and the vibrant Bath Road, Hillfort Close is part of an exclusive development of executive family homes. This particular property enjoys a prime spot at the rear, offering a generous garden, a flexible layout, and the added bonus of being within the priority catchment area for Leckhampton High School.

Since purchasing in 2023, the current owners have transformed the home, most notably with a stunning bespoke kitchen/family room - a beautifully designed space featuring extensive storage, integrated appliances, and bi-fold doors that open seamlessly onto the landscaped garden. The ground floor layout has been cleverly reconfigured to include a dedicated home office, a cloakroom, and a practical utility room off the kitchen. Two inviting reception rooms provide excellent living space, while an integral garage and gym add further flexibility. A bright and welcoming reception hall completes the ground floor.

Upstairs, there are five well-proportioned bedrooms, two of which are en suite. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, boasting a walk-in dressing room and ample built-in storage. The remaining three bedrooms share a stylish, high-spec family bathroom.

Outside, the beautifully landscaped southeast facing rear garden is a real highlight, with a paved patio leading from the kitchen/family room, a large level lawn, and mature planting creating a private, tranquil space. To the front, an expansive driveway provides ample parking and access to the integral garage and gym.
