Description

Situated in the vibrant locale of Cheltenham, this three-bedroom semi-detached home is a charming representative of late Victorian architecture, constructed prior to 1900. Spanning around 1,224 sq ft (114 m²) on a modest 0.05-acre plot, this freehold property has remained under the same ownership for over fifty years and has functioned as a rental for the last decade. It stands as an excellent prospect for investors or homeowners looking to undertake significant renovations while maintaining its rich historical character. The house offers ample opportunity for modernization, serving as a blank slate for creative transformations. Potential buyers can envisage restoring original period features or incorporating modern elements to design a unique family residence. The layout retains much of its original charm, showcasing an inviting entrance hallway that leads into two generously sized reception rooms characterized by high ceilings and spacious dimensions—ideal for hosting and everyday living. A practical kitchen, paired with a ground-floor cloakroom and an additional shower room, offers functionality. On the first floor, three well-proportioned bedrooms await personalization alongside a family bathroom. Notably, the existing attic presents further scope for development under requisite planning permissions. This property represents an intriguing opportunity to revive a classic Victorian home into a tailored sanctuary in a desirable Cheltenham area, where historic charm collides beautifully with contemporary lifestyle preferences.
