Whitecross Square, Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, GL53

Listed 24 Sept 2026 · Cheltenham
A beautifully presented individual three-bedroom detached bungalow occupying a generous corner plot in a peaceful cul-de-sac in the heart of Leckhampton, complemented by attractive private gardens, extensive off-road parking and a detached garage.
Built approximately 60 years ago, this individually styled detached bungalow has been extensively updated and remodelled by the current owners, creating a comfortable and stylish single-storey home with modern living, excellent flexibility and a number of energy-efficient improvements. The property benefits from solar panels providing thermal energy and electricity, while the gas central heating boiler and hot water cylinder were replaced approximately 10 years ago. Replacement UPVC double glazing, internal doors, floor coverings and contemporary décor further enhance the presentation. The property is approached via a replacement high-security entrance door into a spacious reception hall, which also serves as a dining area, with doors leading to both the kitchen and sitting room. The sitting room is a particularly attractive principal reception space, enjoying a large window overlooking the garden and French doors opening directly onto a paved terrace, creating a seamless connection between the indoor and outdoor living areas. The stylish kitchen is well equipped with fitted units and integrated appliances, with a large opening connecting it to a similarly spacious utility room providing excellent additional storage and appliance space. A door leads directly to the rear garden, while a shower room is also conveniently located off this area. An inner hall leads to three bedrooms, all with fitted wardrobes or cupboards. Two are currently arranged as a home office and snug respectively, demonstrating the flexibility of the accommodation. A contemporary family bathroom completes the accommodation. Outside, the property occupies a generous corner plot, with gardens extending around much of the house and providing an unusual degree of privacy and space. The gardens are principally laid to lawn, with mature shrubs, established borders and pathways leading to the front entrance, together with useful side access. A substantial driveway provides comfortable parking for four or more vehicles, with gated access to the gardens and detached garage. The rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to provide several areas for relaxation and entertaining, including a paved terrace and pergola-covered seating area. Established planting, shrub borders and substantial fencing create a private and secluded environment, while further areas offer potential for additional storage or an outbuilding, subject to the necessary consents. There is also a discreet front/side area providing useful storage for garden equipment.
