Set behind a leafy frontage on one of the area's most desirable roads, Glaston House is a distinctive Victorian semi-detached home offering an impressive amount of accommodation across three floors. Full of period charm, including high ceilings and character features, the house combines its traditional appeal with a flexible layout that works particularly well for modern family life.
The property is approached via a private driveway providing parking for two vehicles, while the accommodation opens into a welcoming hallway with a cloakroom and a useful home office. Two beautifully proportioned reception rooms provide a choice of spaces for relaxing and entertaining, including a generous drawing room with a striking double-sided wood-burning stove serving both reception rooms. There is also a further sitting room with doors opening directly onto the garden.
One of the highlights of the property is the spacious lower-ground-floor kitchen and breakfast room. Bright and inviting, the room features tiled flooring with underfloor heating, a peninsula-style unit and direct access to the rear garden, making it a natural hub for everyday family life.
The first floor provides four bedrooms, comprising two comfortable double bedrooms and two further bedrooms, alongside two bath/shower rooms. The principal bedroom benefits from its own en-suite, while the remaining bedrooms are served by a separate family bathroom.
Outside, the enclosed rear garden has been designed with ease of maintenance in mind and is accessed from two levels. A balcony and paved terrace provide attractive spaces for outdoor seating and entertaining, while a useful garden store offers additional storage.
The location is a particular strength. Glaston House sits at the foot of Battledown Approach, a mature tree-lined road leading towards the highly regarded Battledown Estate. Excellent local schooling is close at hand, with Holy Apostles Primary School just a short walk away and Berkhamsted School also within easy reach.
The property is equally well placed for enjoying the area's leisure and recreational facilities, with Sandford Park, the popular Sandford Parks Lido and Cheltenham High Street all accessible on foot. The surrounding countryside is also close by, including walks across Battledown, towards Ham village and up towards Cleeve Hill.
For those commuting further afield, there is convenient access to the A40 towards Oxford and London, the A417 towards Gloucester, the A435 towards Cirencester and the M5 at Junctions 11 and 11a.
With its generous proportions, versatile accommodation, attractive outdoor space and enviable position close to both amenities and countryside, Glaston House offers a rare opportunity to acquire a truly individual Victorian home in a highly sought-after part of Cheltenham.
