Back Lane, Upper Oddington, Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, GL56

Brook House is located in an elevated position in the heart of Upper Oddington. The current site provides an excellent foundation to complete a striking, architect-designed property tailored to individual tastes. 

Once finished, the home will offer light-filled living spaces with countryside views and high-quality modern design throughout. The house is designed as two distinct wings connected by a striking full-height glazed corridor. Combining Cotswold stone and brick in a subtly contemporary style, the architecture blends traditional materials with modern design. Arranged across three floors, the accommodation offers exceptional versatility. 

The ground floor features a spacious open-plan living area with kitchen, dining, and sitting zones, all enjoying a southerly aspect over the garden. The space includes a dramatic double-height dining area, cloakroom/bathroom, and a flexible fifth bedroom with ensuite—ideal as a guest suite, gym, study, or playroom. 

Upstairs, three generous bedroom suites and a mezzanine study area overlook the space below. The second floor is dedicated to the principal suite, featuring vaulted ceilings and an elegant en suite bathroom. 

Externally, the property will provide a private courtyard and parking to the front, with landscaped gardens to the rear.
