Further Information

DESCRIPTION
A home of distinction in one of Cheltenham’s prime residential areas close to Montpellier yet with the large plots and gardens rarely found so close to town. This impressive townhouse combines period features with modern aesthetics creating a home that is both light filled and functional. The beautiful proportions of this character home make wonderful entertaining areas and extremely comfortable bedroom space, spanning C 3960 sq feet of the grandest accommodation.

The clever detail, implemented by the current owner, is bestowed to each room, merging more formal rooms to the informal space ideal that is ideal for modern family life. This is a home that showcases contemporary styling with traditional rooms. The primary entrance on the ground floor leads directly to the elegant reception rooms. The dining room is elegant with high ceilings, a feature bay window and double doors opening to a side terrace. The formal drawing room also has a set of doors to access the garden. To the rear of the house, and arguably the impressive space, is the kitchen/breakfast/family room which has been designed to overlook the gardens with three sets of doors opening to the sun terrace and beyond, making it an ideal space for family living and entertaining. The kitchen is a range of bespoke units and a large central island opening, by way of two arches, to the garden/family room. A utility room is adjacent in addition to a separate cloakroom. The large cellar can be accessed from the hallway on the ground floor, a room which offers space, and an excellent head height should someone wish to convert it, STP.

On the first floor are three excellent double bedrooms, two of which have en suite bathrooms and one with direct access to a roof terrace that overlooks the gardens. A further four bedrooms, two with en suites, and a family bathroom are arranged on the second floor.

OUTSIDE
The generous garden at Exning Lawn is exquisite and provides a lovely balance to the substantial accommodation of the house. Particularly private, the gardens are, in part, extremely well established with well stocked boarders interspersed with a variety of trees framing the area of lawn. Cleverly landscaped, there are also areas for low maintenance, town living by way of a series of patio terraces that surround the southerly facing plot. Planted beds provide seasonal colour and soften the areas of terrace. Within the garden is a delightful Alitex greenhouse with automatic ventilation and to the front of the property is parking for two cars.
In all, a wonderful home of classic architecture, beautiful inside space and gardens that feel like a tranquil green oasis in the centre of town.
