For Sale9 Bedroom Detached House in Queens Road, Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, GL50£2,250,000

A stunning Victorian villa sitting close to Montpellier and central Cheltenham with access to the train station. An exceptional detached villa of impressive proportions, style, and character, offering unique flexibility and an ideal layout for multigenerational living or generating supplementary income. The house, a cherished family home, is in superb condition throughout its four floors of well-proportioned living and bedroom space. It's rare to find such an architecturally significant detached property in town, featuring a large private plot, parking, and garaging. Despite its period charm, the property is unlisted, allowing for easier modifications. Stone steps lead to the ornate stone entrance porch and panelled door, opening into the reception hall with a fine cantilevered staircase. The house boasts symmetry with tall sash windows, high ceilings, and a bright, airy atmosphere. Off the reception hall is a front drawing room with a classic bay window and stone fireplace. Opposite, the dining room, also with a bay window and fireplace, connects to the kitchen via an ornate archway. The kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with cream storage units, a Belfast sink, and a cream Rangemaster cooker, is an ideal entertaining space, with views of the gardens. Adjacent to the kitchen is a self-contained annex, perfect for a live-in au pair or dependent relative, consisting of a sitting room, kitchen, bathroom, and two bedrooms. The first-floor landing is spacious, with a modern family bathroom and separate shower room on the mezzanine level, serving one bedroom. The remaining three bedrooms each have en suites. The second floor features two large front bedrooms with en suite shower rooms, an additional bedroom opposite a beautiful bathroom suite, and a large laundry room ideal for linen, ironing, and storage. A short staircase from the reception hall leads to a lower floor of living space that can serve as an independent flat or part of the main house. This entertaining area includes a bar, cinema room, gym, wine storage area, and cellar storage with independent access. Notably, planning was previously granted for a four-story extension and conversion into apartments, though it has expired (reference number 99/50471/CAC).
