House For Sale £350,000
Very rarely available, such a beautiful example of a period property with an absolutely magical mature garden.
This period cottage believed to date from c1860 has a sense of pure nostalgia throughout, a true little gem hidden away within its surrounding mature gardens in close proximity to Cheltenham Spa Station, Town Centre and various Supermarkets.
On first approach to this lovely deceptive cottage, it oozes with character hidden under a beautiful fig tree to the front and an archway of mature roses to the side. The door opens into a real gem of a home. The hallway with its stripped floorboards leads to the hub of the cottage, a real character kitchen/diner still boasting the original range (the fire still in use today). The kitchen has been modernised over the years but fits in really well with the surroundings. A very clever fitted settle style seating area under the stairs with plenty of built in storage blends in so well. Stairs from this area lead to the first floor with a sash window allowing light throughout. Also off the hallway is the door leading to the front sitting room with its original picture rails and built in cupboard, a lovely half glazed latch and brace door takes you into the conservatory which positioned on the side of the cottage opens up into the most magical garden where you may relax and listen to the whistling and tweeting of an array of wild birds so obviously nurtured in this garden. Close your eyes and imagine the tropical paradise! The garden is very private and has been lovingly designed by the current owner with many trees and bushes bearing fruits including cherry, apricot, fig, quince to name a few. A feature pond situated with plants surrounding it makes a haven for flittering pretty dragon flies.
Upstairs the space continues with two double bedrooms, a lovely modern bathroom with large white p-shaped bath with a glass shower screen, built in storage cupboard with attractive feature basin, more hidden storage behind a swivel mirror. On the landing is a very clever thought out space making a great office/workspace. The landing also benefits a large loft hatch with drop down ladder which takes you to the loft room, this has a Velux window and is fully carpeted, plenty of storage in the eaves and great fun for children to make it a sleep over room/playroom or even a home office. A cupboard in the loft room also houses the Ideal combination boiler.
To the front of the property there is a storage unit hidden under climbing jasmine, ideal for storing bikes etc. There are double gates if you wish to park on the front however parking on the road is always plentiful.
Cheltenham Spa is renowned for its many festivals including The Cheltenham Gold Cup, Cheltenham Literature Festival, and the very popular Jazz Festival just to name a few, all of which are within walking distance. Alternatively, there is an excellent bus service just around the corner. Several of the Schools in Cheltenham are amongst the highest achieving in the country, including Cheltenham Grammer School, Cheltenham Ladies College and Dean Close.
