Cleeve Hill, Cheltenham, GL52

An individual 1930’s detached family home offering well proportioned living space, extensive parking and garaging for four vehicles, complemented by a large private garden with direct access onto Cleeve Hill and an adjoining paddock, in all about 1 acre.

Believed to date from the 1930’s, Oak House has been extended on both floors in more recent years to provide generous flexible living space to meet the needs of a family lifestyle. Sitting centrally in a commanding elevated plot, set well back from the road whilst enjoying westerly views as far as the Malvern Hills and with a private gate directly onto Cleeve Hill at the rear. The property has been well maintained and is presented in a neutral colour scheme. With immediate vacant possession, presenting a buyer with an opportunity to move straight it. Approached via a lobby leading into a hall, both retaining original solid oak doors with a cloakroom including toilet and sink at the rear of the hall. A large sitting room has a wood-burner with a door to an almost identically sized family room which has patio doors to the garden. A separate formal dining room or home office has a gas “wood burner”. Adjoining this room is an expansive kitchen/dining room with a well equipped kitchen featuring a two oven gas Aga working alongside an integrated oven & hob. Double doors from the kitchen/dining room lead into a large conservatory overlooking the garden. Upstairs there are four double bedrooms, three with en-suite bath/shower rooms and a further shower room. A dressing room or occasional bedroom could be reconfigured into the principal bedroom suite.

Outside, a gated brick paviour drive provides extensive parking and turning space with a large detached double garage and a tandem length integral garage, both with power and light and a built in fast charge electric hookup. Access either side of the property, with a vehicular gate directly into the adjoining paddock and further access points from the rear garden of Oak House.
