This substantial Georgian semi sits across four floors, newly renovated to a high standard while retaining period cornicing, ceiling roses and a bay-fronted reception. The layout offers flexible living: formal drawing rooms, a study/ground-floor suite, and an extended lower-ground kitchen/family room that opens onto a courtyard and the large, walled rear garden. At about 2,006 sq ft, the home suits family life and entertaining while providing plentiful storage and modern integrated appliances.
The first and top floors house well-proportioned bedrooms and contemporary bath/shower rooms; hand-finished cupboards conceal a new boiler and add neat storage. Outside there is a decked BBQ area, level lawn, two large sheds, a bin store and front garden behind railings. Resident off-street parking is available directly outside on College Road, and the location offers easy access to Sandford Park, the Lido, Montpellier and main road links (A40/M5/A417).
Buyers should note a few material points: the area records higher local crime levels and the property sits in a medium flood-risk zone. Council tax is described as quite expensive. The immediate neighbourhood is a cosmopolitan mix with many students and terraces, which may affect long-term rental or quietness for some buyers.
Overall this is a large, characterful family townhouse with contemporary living spaces and a rare, substantial garden so close to central Cheltenham. It will suit buyers seeking period charm combined with turn-key, modern accommodation, but those prioritising absolute quiet or lowest running costs should factor in the local crime profile, flood considerations and council tax banding.
