5 bedroom terraced house

The most beautifully refurbished townhouse, with exceptional accommodation and a one-bedroom apartment, overlooking an elegant garden square just a short walk of cosmopolitan Cheltenham.

8 Clarence Square is the most beautiful Grade II listed townhouse forming part of an attractive street for which Cheltenham is so well-regarded.  Steeped in local history the property and the road have become a highly coveted address over recent years offering the very best of town living yet a stone's throw from parks and open spaces.

The current owners have meticulously refurbished the property, skilfully balancing a modern approach to the period structure, without compromising on the beautiful intricacies of its era. Spanning c.3000 Sq Ft of internal accommodation, the property is deceptively spacious and particularly grand.

The house is arranged over four floors, with the lower ground floor separately accessed comprising a bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, and a spacious sitting room, with two stores to the rear. Should a prospective owner wish, this could be used to generate a supplementary income, as it is currently used, or, as overflow/guest accommodation to the main house.

Entrance is via a few steps into the hallway with a cantilevered staircase.  The raised ground floor contains a more informal sitting room at the front of the house opening to the dining room, to provide a functional area ideal for entertaining.  This entire space is beautiful, oak flooring runs through both rooms, each with a fireplace and large Sash windows, with the front elevation overlooking Clarence Gardens.  The newly fitted kitchen is positioned to the rear of this floor, with a range of bespoke units and integrated appliances it has been cleverly designed to maximise the space.

As with any traditional town house, the formal drawing room is set on the first floor.  This elegant room is particularly spacious with a charming vista of the central garden square and a statement fireplace as a focal point.  Behind this room, is a bedroom with a series of fitted wardrobes and on mezzanine level, a newly fitted beautiful bathroom with a separate shower. This entire floor enjoys the high ceilings and details of these fine townhouses.  Three further double bedrooms are arranged around a landing on the second floor, all sharing a modern family bathroom.

In all, the most impeccable townhouse, of great architectural merit, renovated to the highest standard throughout and ideal for town living or as a lock up and leave.

Outside:  There is a paved terrace to the rear which provides a lovely outside space, perfect for al fresco dining, dressed with potted plants and framed with walling. Unusually for town, there is off road parking for one car behind electric gates at the rear. Residents on the road can acquire parking permits which allows for more parking if required.

Situation:  This is a much sought-after Pittville address, with the name derived from an elegant central garden bordered to each side by attractive period buildings. Just 50 period houses frame the garden square which was designed in the 1800's as a communal area for the gentry to enjoy a game of boules or croquet. Today's garden provides a beautiful area for the residents of Clarence Square to use.

A cultural centre, Cheltenham plays host to several highly acclaimed festivals including Music, Food and Literature. The town is also known for its excellent schools to include The Cheltenham Ladies' College, Cheltenham College, Berkhampstead and Dean Close, all within a comfortable walk or bike ride.
