Outside the well tended gardens are a particular feature of the house. To the rear there is a tiered lawn, edged by mature planted beds and enclosed by hedged boundaries. There is a patio terrace area just outside the conservatory, ideal for outside entertaining.
To the front the aforementioned drive is softened with well planned planting and the garage has automated door, power and light.
Battledown is one of Cheltenham's most desirable locations and sits on the edge of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The Battledown Estate is characterised by its green, countryside appearance and part of its appeal lies in its peaceful atmosphere with wooded backdrop yet situated only one and a half miles from Cheltenham town centre and close to major communication links. When the Battledown Estate was established in 1859, it was with the idea of combining the fine views from Battledown Hill with the proximity to Cheltenham to provide quality villa residences for the gentry. Battledown is now recognised by the Cheltenham Borough council as an important landscaped area.
Cheltenham itself is a Regency Spa town renowned for its fine architecture, famous gardens, an eclectic mix of shops, restaurants and boutiques and world-renowned schools to include Cheltenham Ladies' College and Dean Close. There are good communication links to major centres via the M5 (Junctions 10 & 11), the A419 to Swindon and the M4 and A40 to London. There are train services to London and other major cities from Cheltenham Spa, Kemble and Swindon.
