Bournside Road, Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, GL51

A beautifully finished and immaculately presented detached family home, offering flexible accommodation, nestled in glorious and large gardens on this highly sought after road a short stroll from town.

Description
Houses in this location are highly sought after and it is rare for detached family homes of this scale and finish come to the market on Bournside Road. Number 48 is beautifully presented with well-proportioned accommodation that is both practical and balanced with a modern feel throughout. A great benefit of the property is the large garden that runs down to a gently running brook.

A welcoming entrance porch opens to the large home office/bedroom four and to the hallway, which introduces the reception rooms. The double reception room occupies the entire depth of the house and is divided into two distinct areas, to the front of the house is a sitting room with a feature gas fire and curved bay window. The snug that overlooks the garden, is a more informal, delightful reading room with bespoke fitted shelving and bi fold doors that open up to the decked area and further to the garden. Across the rear of the house is a kitchen/family/dining room and as with any of the best family homes, this is the heart of the house. The gently curved walls are a honor to its era and the kitchen itself has been beautifully deigned and well planned for family life and entertaining alike. This light filled room is fitted with a range of modern cabinetry, appliances and a central breakfast island that has a sink and an area for seating. There is ample space for sofas and a dining table next to a set of doors that open to the decked area with steps down to the garden. A door from the kitchen leads into the utility room and further to a useful store that gives side access to the house. A cloakroom from the hallway completes the accommodation on this floor.

The bedrooms are equally well planned and balanced to that of the reception rooms. There are three double bedrooms, the master enjoys a large, luxury en suite bathroom and fitted wardrobes whilst bedrooms two and three share a modern bathroom.

Outside
The gardens are a lovely feature to this charming home, providing a well-established and private backdrop that has been carefully considered to use all year round with the use of an awning, electric heaters and lighting. The large decked terrace is ideal for dining and seating al fresco, overlooking the expanse of private lawn which is accessed from both the sitting room and kitchen. The gardens enjoy a south westerly orientation and are generous in size with a gently running brook and mature hedged boundaries. There is off road parking to the front for two cars and side pedestrian access. Situation The charm of the property is certainly due in part to its setting, sited on one of Cheltenham’s most sought after roads close to The Park, undeniably one of the town’s most fashionable and desirable residential areas. Bournside Road is a wide avenue made up of high quality, individual homes and is within strolling distance to the quaint independent shops, cafes and delis that Tivoli is so well reputed for. A little further are Cheltenham’s fashionable shops, Michelin starred restaurants, salons and bars all within a very comfortable walk. Less than a hundred miles from London, Cheltenham nestles beautifully between the Cotswold Hills and the Wye Valley and is home to numerous prestigious schools including Cheltenham College, The Cheltenham Ladies’ College, and Dean Close Prep and Senior, the latter within strolling distance from the house. Owing to this and the cultural lifestyle on offer, including playing hosts to several highly acclaimed festivals, it is now regarded as one of the places to live and raise a family. For the commuter, this area is particularly well placed for both motorway access and the train station which can be reached by foot in less than 15 minutes.
