Gloucester Road, Cheltenham, GL51

A charming and wonderfully warm Victorian family townhouse located on the edge of town, in excellent proximity to shops, schools and services. This property, originally part of "Gloucester Crescent" was built around 1865. This property is a loved family home and is laid out in a traditional way for this type of home. A long hallway, with floorboards once through the front door (with the house number painted in the glass above) gives access to the main reception rooms. The unusual drifting line of the crescent means the properties have an offset angled front wall. This is only slight and has little impact inside, but adds to the character. The ground floor main rooms benefit from the higher ceilings to add to the feeling of space. The living room at the front has a feature fireplace. The rear room is a spacious dining room, the hub of the home, a place for homework, eating and entertainment, with a wonderful feature fireplace. This leads in turn to the kitchen, the room to whip up the family meal. Through here into an incredibly useful utility room, a place to hide away white goods, with a storage cupboard and downstairs toilet also.

Upstairs are three bedrooms which are well balanced with a good master at the rear. To the front are bedrooms one and two, ideal for children or as an office. The master is at the back, looking over the patio and to the garden. A surprising yet significant bonus of this house is the giant bathroom. On the back of the property, over the kitchen, this 11'3 x 8' room fits it all in. 

Outside there is a large 86' x 15' rear garden. This has three distinct areas: a patio, a raised lawn and then a gravelled parking area, currently used as a play area for the children. 

The property has ample parking options with residents parking on the path outside, further parking on the road, a single space on the front (For a small car due to the turning space) and a double space behind gates at the rear, via the rear lane.

The property is perfectly located for many things. For primary schooling, there is the Gloucester Road Primary School, rated Ofsted "Outstanding" 0.2 miles away, of 5 minutes on foot. You are between Tescos and Waitrose for shopping, both in walking distance. The railway station is half a mile away, a 10 minute walk. Less a mile and a 20 minute walk to the Promenade. This home has all the benefits of character, charm, Cheltenham living, without the price tag of a Tivoli or Bath Road home of a similar style.
