Battledown, Cheltenham

Oakfield Rise is a landmark contemporary home at the exclusive Battledown Estate — a perfect fusion of architectural vision, craftsmanship and advanced technology. Designed with Coombes : Everitt Architects, the dramatic exterior, clad in KMETECU oxide diamond shingles, creates a bold silhouette that responds to light and landscape, framing sweeping views across the Cotswolds.

Inside, the house is all about space, flow and effortless luxury. A state-of-the-art Seimatic kitchen with Gaggenau appliances forms the heart of the home, opening into generous living and dining areas designed for both entertaining and everyday comfort. Multiple reception rooms — including formal and informal living spaces, cinema room, gym, home office and games room — ensure every lifestyle is catered for.

There are five luxurious bedroom suites to the main house, each offering privacy and beautiful outlooks. The principal suite enjoys a dressing room, spa-like bathroom and a private terrace with panoramic views. A self-contained two-bedroom courtyard apartment, heated independently, offers flexibility for guests, extended family or staff.

The pool terrace is an exceptional outdoor living and entertaining zone. A fully fitted outdoor kitchen and a bespoke horse-trailer bar anchor the space, alongside a covered area with a flat screen TV, integrated lighting and sound. Every detail is designed to create atmosphere — from morning relaxation to vibrant evening celebrations.

Set within three quarters of an acre, the gardens combine wide lawns, mature trees, seasonal planting, wildlife, a tranquil water feature and even an astroturf sports pitch. The gym opens directly onto the grounds, blending indoor fitness with the restorative benefits of fresh air.

A gated private driveway leads to the courtyard with six intelligent garages, each operating by ANPR number-plate recognition, plus a covered car port with EV charging and a dedicated wash bay — practicality elevated to luxury.

A full Control4 smart management system integrates lighting, climate, music (inside and outside), CCTV, security and garage access. Underfloor heating, air-conditioning to key areas, and EPC A efficiency underline this home’s exceptional specification.

Oakfield Rise is a rare combination of cutting-edge design, luxury, everyday comfort and complete privacy — a home that sets a new benchmark for contemporary living at one of Cheltenham’s finest addresses.
