About this home

Leighton Road is a fantastic example of a traditional Cheltenham townhouse which has been thoughtfully refurbished and extended to create a substantial and versatile home, while retaining many of the character features that make properties of this style so appealing. Entering into the hallway, the accommodation immediately gives a sense of the property's period character. To the front is an impressive bay-fronted living room, beautifully complemented by stripped wooden flooring, decorative cornicing and a striking period-style fireplace with tiled detailing. The large bay window allows plenty of natural light into the room and creates a particularly attractive principal reception space. Moving through the house, a separate dining room provides an excellent second reception area. Generously proportioned and ideal for both everyday family dining and entertaining, French doors open directly towards the rear garden, helping connect the internal accommodation with the outside space. Beyond is the extended kitchen, creating a long and practical workspace fitted with a comprehensive range of contemporary white units, extensive work surfaces and integrated cooking facilities. Multiple windows provide plenty of natural light, while a door at the rear gives direct access into the garden. One of the property's particularly useful additions is the basement level. Accessed from the ground floor, this provides a substantial additional room which has been partially converted and offers excellent potential for a variety of uses, currently being used as a separate WC/utility area. The first floor is home to three bedrooms, with two comfortable double rooms alongside a third bedroom which would work particularly well as a child's room, nursery or study. Also on this level is the main family bathroom, fitted with both a bath and separate shower enclosure alongside a WC and wash hand basin. A further staircase rises to the second floor loft room, providing another impressive and highly versatile area. Outside is another major feature of the property. The long rear garden is unusually generous for such a convenient town location, with lawn, mature planting and established brick boundaries giving it plenty of character. There is ample room for outdoor seating and entertaining, while positioned towards the rear is a separate garden room/home office, ideal for anyone looking to work from home while retaining separation from the main house. Combining the proportions and character of a traditional townhouse with a highly versatile four floor layout, generous garden and superb location, this is a home that should appeal particularly well to families and buyers wanting significantly more space than the exterior initially suggests. The property is also being sold with the added advantage of no onward chain. Location Leighton Road sits within Fairview, one of Cheltenham's most popular residential areas thanks to its excellent balance of period housing and proximity to the town centre. A wide range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities are within easy reach, while Cheltenham High Street, the Brewery Quarter and town centre can all be conveniently accessed. The property is also particularly well positioned for Pittville Park, providing extensive green space, children's play areas and attractive walking routes, while the wider Cheltenham area offers a strong selection of highly regarded schools. With excellent access to the town centre alongside convenient routes towards the A40, A435 and surrounding areas, the location works extremely well for both families and professionals.
