House For Sale £665,000
Albert Place, Pittville, Cheltenham, GL52

A classic Grade II listed Regency town house arranged over 4 floors, combining sensitively restored elements using traditional techniques, providing a buyer with an opportunity to complete to their individual requirements, whilst also benefitting from a pretty town garden and garage at the rear

An elegant stone dressed town house built in 1825 by Thomas Newman, during a period following the end of the Napoleonic Wars that was described at the time by the Cheltenham Journal as a “brick and mortar mania”. A programme of sensitive restoration has been managed over several years treating the property with informed respect ensuring that all additions and repairs have been administered with sensitivity, knowledge and craftsmanship. The outstanding works for a new buyer to complete are primarily the redevelopment of the kitchen and conservatory and the lower ground floor rooms are exposed to brickwork. Any additions will require planning and conservation consents. The raised ground floor offers a beautiful double reception room with lime plaster walls, fireplaces and plaster mouldings with natural light flooding in from both the front and rear. A kitchen and conservatory connect at the rear and a redevelopment of these rooms could connect seamlessly with the rear garden for the perfect integration between inside and out. The first floor offers a magnificent drawing room or principal bedroom with three sash windows, a second bedroom and a luxury bathroom with a shower enclosure. The second floor provides a further bedroom. The lower ground floor offers three rooms with high headroom, independent front and rear access.

Outside
Wrought iron railings enclose the frontage with a gate leading to steps down to independent access to the lower ground floor. A pretty town garden at the rear has been imaginatively landscaped and in addition there is a 24’/7.3m x 13’3”/4m detached garage and pedestrian gated access onto Back Albert Place. There is potential to redevelop this outbuilding subject to any necessary consents.
