Marle Hill Parade, Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, GL50

A substantial period home extending to over 1,500 sq ft, offering three bedrooms, a useful cellar, a large detached garage/workshop and a generous rear garden, all within easy reach of Cheltenham town centre and offered with no onward chain.

Behind its modest frontage lies a home that offers considerably more space than first impressions suggest. Arranged over two floors with the added benefit of a sizeable cellar below, the property combines well-proportioned accommodation with excellent storage and future potential.

The ground floor includes two reception rooms, a kitchen and a sun room overlooking the rear garden, whilst upstairs there are three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The property has been well cared for over the years and now offers an opportunity for a new owner to update and personalise to their own taste.

Outside, the rear garden is a particular feature. Mature and established, it provides a surprising amount of outdoor space for such a central location and leads to a substantial detached garage/workshop at the far end of the plot. Whether used for storage, hobbies, vehicles or simply as valuable additional space, it is a feature rarely found with homes of this type.

With its combination of character, space and potential, this is a property that could appeal equally to owner-occupiers looking to create a long-term home or buyers seeking a period property with scope to add value over time.
