The Park, Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, GL50

An exceptional and rare opportunity to acquire a Grade II listed semi detached stone townhouse with planning granted to convert from a commercial office to a residential home ideal for anyone seeking a true Cheltenham townhouse.


Description.
The Park is without doubt one of Cheltenham’s finest areas and noted as an aspirational address. Pallas Villas is a substantial four storey, mid-19th Century building that’s has been used for many years for educational purposes.

Listed Grade II the building is an iconic villa on the circular crescent that forms The Park itself. Whilst currently commercial, this area is predominantly residential and the landmark properties of this scale are what make this pocket of the town so sought after. As such, this building would lend itself to the conversion to a single residential property, subject to the necessary planning consents.

Internally, the accommodation extends to over 5,700 sq. ft over four floors. Whilst it is a university building, the current floorplan is practical and easy to configure a conventional residential home as the many of the traditional room sizes are still in their original design and entirety. Some period features have been retained along with the character one would expect of this era including large proportions, high ceilings and deep sash windows.

Outside:
Standing on a large level plot, the grounds are a particular feature to this building, making it an excellent garden in balance with a home of this status. It is rare living so close to town to find grounds of this size which in total extend to 0.38 acres. There is a car park to the front of the property
