18, Pilford Avenue

A 4 bedroom semi-detached home which is in the area of priority for both Balcarras School and The High School Leckhampton.

Pilford Avenue is a private, no-through road, with 1930's homes forming a pretty street scene. This fine semi-detached property has been a much treasured home and has been in the same family for over 35 years, as such it could benefit from a remodel to maximise the natural space, volume of the house.

Immaculately presented, the house offers a traditional floorplan with superbly proportioned living and bedroom space arranged over three floors with a lovely outlook to the rear over a pretty garden with a patio at the end.  On the ground floor is a living room enjoying views to the front through a large square bay window.  Behind this room is a sitting room, with a log burning stove.  This leads through to the dining room which has wall to ceiling windows and door over looking and giving access to the garden.  Off the hallway is the kitchen with an opening into the breakfast room, also with side access to outside.  The ground floor could benefit from being an open plan space, incorporating the kitchen, dining and family area, making it conducive to modern family living.  There is a cloakroom and cupboard off the hallway.

The proportions of these homes are excellent and this continues upstairs where there are three light and bright bedrooms on the first floor.  These bedrooms are served by a family bathroom. 

On the second floor the attic space has been converted into a bedroom and en suite shower room with storage in the eaves.


Outside:
There is a driveway to the front for parking leading to a car port and garage.  To the rear, there is a mature garden which is laid to lawn, a blank canvass for anyone wishing to create a wonderful outdoor space.


Situation:
Rarely do homes come to the market in Pilford Avenue, this quiet and private road is in an enviable position leading to a children's play area and the rugby grounds of Old Pats, an area that is without doubt one of the most desirable and highly sought after pockets of Cheltenham.  The appeal of the location is the proximity to the Bath Road, with its shops and eateries, and to the village of Charlton Kings, which offers exceptional day to day amenities.  Leckhampton provides easy access to some of the very best countryside around Cheltenham.  These two locations offer some of the best schooling in the town, both in the state and private sector including Leckhampton High School, and Balcarras at secondary level. Primary schools include  Leckhampton Primary, Naunton Park Primary school and The Richard Pate School, just a five minute walk from the house.  The location also has excellent access to Cheltenham's cultural centre less than 2 miles away, within 25 minutes on foot.  The A40 is a short drive away for access to Oxford and London.
