An exceptional town house offering stylish accommodation, in a prime Cheltenham location with a beautifully planted garden and large detached double garage

The Lodge occupies a wonderful position in the Lansdown/Montpellier district of Cheltenham and as such, is right on the doorstep of everything that Cheltenham has to offer, whilst enjoying a setting of peace and privacy with a private driveway to the front and a walled garden to the rear. The house is presented in first class order with tasteful decoration and quality fittings and has a splendid, light and bright atmosphere. Properties of this style and size come to the market rarely in such a prime location and the combination of spacious living space, a walled garden and 22’ double garage makes this a very desirable home.

On the ground floor an elegant reception hall opens in to a smartly appointed kitchen with dual aspect windows and outlook over the garden. Fitted with a range of modern, laminated cabinets topped with granite work surfaces and fitted appliances to include a double oven, dishwasher, fitted fridge freezer, 4 ring induction hob and extractor hood over. The kitchen is open to the dining room making this a very comfortable entertaining space, there is a good sized sitting room or very spacious study with dual aspect windows and a large walk-in, shelved storage cupboard and a delightful conservatory with French doors opening to the front.

On the first floor is the main drawing room, an elegant living space with dual sash hung windows overlooking the rear garden, an ornate period style fireplace with inset gas fire, deep ceiling coving and picture rails and double panelled doors to the landing. Adjacent to the drawing room is what was originally planned as the main bedroom, an impressive, light and bright room with dual aspect windows to the front and side, a modern art deco style fireplace housing a pebbled gas fire, ceiling coving and picture rail. This room, presently arranged as a sitting room has a large en-suite bathroom fitted with a modern suite including a deep moulded bath with shower over.

From the reception hall, a short staircase leads to the garden level accommodation and three excellent double bedrooms. The largest of these has a walk in wardrobe and modern en-suite bathroom with the two remaining bedrooms being served by a superb Jack & Jill shower room with full width shower, wide Villeroy & Boch vanity wash hand basin and w.c..
One of the bedrooms has a bank of fitted wardrobes, there is a large understairs storage cupboard off the hallway and the bedrooms to the rear both have French doors opening out to a private patio area, perfect for early morning coffee. Adding to the functionality of the house on this level is a generous second kitchen/utility room, fitted with an extensive amount of storage cabinets with granite work surfaces over, space for white goods and with a fitted double oven and hob.

The gardens of The Lodge are a particular feature and the present owners have dedicated a significant amount of time creating the most beautiful planted displays filled with perennials, raised borders, covered trellis, colourful shrubbery and specimen trees. The garden is arranged on two levels with a wide patio leading directly from the bedrooms with a few steps rising to a beautifully enclosed second seating area with covered pergola and high covered trellis fencing, the pathway to the courtesy door of the garage is edged by full to bursting borders and the whole garden is an oasis of privacy and colour.

The double garage is a substantial outbuilding, with pitched roof, power and light and electric doors opening out on to Parabola Lane. To the front, a pillared entrance with wrought iron electric gates open up to the graveled driveway providing private and secure parking

Occupying a prime town location, Overton Road has a lovely street scene and is without any doubt one of the best postcodes in the centre of Cheltenham.
