House For Sale £875,000
A stunning part of a Grade II listed Victorian Villa, beautifully finished and extended with a lovely garden.
Description
1 Ashford House forms the middle section of perhaps one of the most impeccable Victorian Villas in Cheltenham. From the stucco facades to the fish-scale slate roof, this 18th Century property is simply beautiful.
The wonderful home is accessed through a beautiful stain glass door with an ornate patterned fan light which floods the vestibule with fragments of colour. The foyer is enclosed with two double doors with beautiful stain glass windows hand painted British birds and flowers in the centre circles. The entrance hall, with Minton style flooring and a decorative square lantern above, leads to the utility/ cloakroom which provides useful storage. The formal sitting room stems from the entrance hall making a perfect entertaining space and is enhanced with the period Victorian fireplace, wooden floorboards and sash windows with full length shutters.
Leading from the entrance hall, the kitchen has ample worktop space and storage with a kitchen island and bar seating. The dining/ sitting room extension provides a wonderful contemporary space that complements the juxtaposition with the original Victorian features. It is a stunning and modern light space with skylights and sliding doors running the entire width of the room. This informal living space flows from the kitchen and makes a wonderful family area which can extend in the summer months out on to the south facing patio and garden.
Upstairs, the landing leads to a double bedroom with a large private south facing balcony with contemporary glass railings. There are two further bedrooms and a well-presented family bath/ shower room with laminate flooring, modern white suite and porthole window.
Externally there is off street parking at the front of the house. The garden has 3 components; the patio, the lawn with lovely borders filled to the brim with plants and a further patio with a store.
Location
1 Ashford Road is situated on the popular Ashford Road. Intersecting Tivoli Road and Park Place, Ashford Road is widely regarded as one of Cheltenham’s most sought after residential locations.
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.
