London Road, Cheltenham, GL52

Approached via its own private driveway with parking for several vehicles, the property is set behind a landscaped lawn framed by graceful silver birch trees and Portuguese laurel hedging. A standout home full of period character and timeless appeal.

The house is superbly maintained, with stylish interiors and spacious rooms arranged over three floors, plus a useful basement. In total, the accommodation extends to over 4,100 sq ft.
The large entrance hall features original encaustic tiles and broadleaf oak flooring, setting the tone for the home’s character and quality. At the front of the property, a library or dining room features bespoke fitted bookshelves and opens into a generous drawing room with a log-burning stove and large windows that fill the space with light. Opposite, an informal family room overlooks the garden and adjoins a well-designed laundry and boot room with a door to the side.

The kitchen is fitted with German Rational units, Caesarstone worktops, Carrara marble splashbacks, and a central island, flowing into the dining area with zoned underfloor heating. This space opens through to the orangery, which enjoys lovely views of the gardens. A downstairs cloakroom and stairs to the basement complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, the first floor includes a superb principal bedroom with box bay windows, fitted wardrobes, and a beautifully appointed en suite with Matki shower, Mandarin Stone tiling, and underfloor heating. There are three further bedrooms on this floor, one with an en suite shower room, and another with a bespoke black American walnut dressing room. A further shower room serves two guest rooms.

On the second floor are an additional bedroom, a large study, and a family bathroom, along with a playroom and generous attic storage.

The rear garden is well enclosed and beautifully established, featuring a wide variety of mature plants, shrubs, and trees. Several seating areas — including a patio and a raised wooden terrace — provide ideal spots to entertain or unwind, while a separate garden store offers practical additional space.


Charlton Kings is widely considered to be one of the most desirable areas of Cheltenham, approximately one mile to the east of the town centre, situated in the catchment area of the consistently popular Balcarras School.


Cheltenham is famed as one of the most complete Regency towns in England and historically the original and most fashionable spa.
Less than a hundred miles from London, it nestles beautifully between the Cotswold Hills and the Wye Valley and is home to numerous prestigious schools, including Cheltenham College, Cheltenham Ladies’ College, Dean Close, and Pate’s Grammar.
Now a highly sought-after place to live, the town is well known for its grand houses set amongst formal avenues and beautiful garden squares.
For those with a taste for the finer things in life, there are Michelin-starred restaurants, numerous bars, stylish shops, and salons aplenty. For art and history lovers, there is The Wilson, Cheltenham's newly refurbished museum and art gallery, whilst Cheltenham also has a thriving cultural scene that includes two concert halls and three theatres. There are the numerous festivals such as The Wychwood Festival, the festivals of literature, science, food and drink and, perhaps the pinnacle for some, the jazz festival, which has historically attracted such known performers as Van Morrison, Jamie Cullum, and Jools Holland.
Undoubtedly, for many more, the highlight of the year is the annual racing festival culminating with the Cheltenham Gold Cup — the blue riband event of the national hunt calendar and an attraction that draws the public to the town year after year.
