Pittville Place is an exclusive collection of just sixteen luxury apartments, arranged within two striking buildings set among beautifully landscaped grounds in the centre of Pittville.

Access is via immaculate communal areas, with both lift and stair access to the third floor. The apartment opens into a welcoming hallway that leads directly into an impressive open plan living space. Here, a contemporary kitchen with sleek cabinetry and integrated appliances flows into a generous dining area and a bright sitting room framed by elevated treetop views. Glazed internal doors allow the sitting room to be closed off when desired. French doors from both the kitchen and sitting room open onto the first and largest of the apartment’s three terraces, a superb south facing space ideal for relaxing or entertaining.

This level also includes a versatile second lounge or double bedroom with its own access to an east facing terrace overlooking Cleeve Hill, a stylish family bathroom, a handy large storage cupboard and an internal staircase illuminated by a wide rooflight that floods the area with natural light.

Upstairs, the landing leads to two further double bedrooms. The principal bedroom features a chic ensuite bathroom with underfloor heating, a rain shower and a contemporary vanity unit. The second bedroom benefits from a combined utility/shower room with plumbing for a washing machine; additional plumbing is also available in the lower hall cupboard if preferred. The third terrace wraps around the upper floor, offering views to the east, south and west, and is accessible from both bedrooms and the landing, where there is also an additional storage/airing cupboard. The apartment is equipped with recently installed, energy efficient electric heating and hot water systems.

Outside the apartment’s elevated outlook and leafy park views are central to its appeal, complemented by its three exceptional terraces. The expansive south facing terrace off the main living area is particularly impressive, providing a wonderful setting for alfresco dining with a backdrop of Pittville Park. Further benefits include secure gated vehicular and pedestrian access, two covered parking spaces, ample visitor parking and private pedestrian access directly into Pittville Park.

Location

Pittville Place is situated in the sought after residential district of Pittville, slightly to the North East of the centre of Cheltenham, and fronts on to Albert Road, Victoria House is to the rear with private access to Pittville Park.

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 Pates Grammar which recently topped the national GCSE schools league table.

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.
