Further Information

DESCRIPTION
Sky View is a detached home of absolute distinction showcasing the very best of space, style and specification with the finest attention to detail throughout. At circa 3800 Sq Ft, this home is as impressive internally as it is externally. Undeniably the appeal of such a home is the exceptional accommodation which has been recently refurbished and extended to provide a contemporary style which skillfully indulges every taste. The innovative design of the outside takes full advantage of its surroundings, with twin balconies to take in the most beautiful, far reaching vista both to the front with open fields and to the rear over the stunning gardens. Sky View is a house that suits all seasons, throughout the property there is a tremendous sense of light and openness which is complemented further by its setting, with a series of glass windows and bi folding doors from the reception rooms, there is a seamless infinity living arrangement with an outside inside feel.

Arranged over two floors, the bedrooms are set to both the ground and first floors, with reception spaces arranged to maximise full advantage of the views both to the front and rear. Entrance is gained through a grand reception hall which opens to the luxurious accommodation. Whilst predominantly open plan this superb space has defined areas for a sitting room with a floating fireplace splitting this room to the dining room and further onto the kitchen. The kitchen itself is fitted with a range of units and integrated appliances, a breakfast bar with inset hob divides the room whilst bi folding doors opens onto a terrace and further onto the most glorious gardens, with the views of the garden making this an idyllic area. The three generous bedrooms on this floor are set to one side of the house. The guest suite is cleverley designed to incorporate a shower room with the addition of a cloakroom which can also be accessed from the garden. A family bathroom with freestanding bath and dual sinks serves bedrooms three and four. There is a separate study with an adjacent cloakroom which lends itself well to a further bedroom should one require.

A staircase rises to the first floor and the most spectacular drawing room, extending to over 29 foot with access to a partially covered balcony terrace, which is approached via bi- folding doors offering the most tranquil views over the landscaped garden. The master bedroom suite is of equally good proportions, this beautiful room has double doors opening onto a spacious balcony overlooking a transparent vista of Cheltenham and the hills beyond.

The exacting details continue to outdoor space, where particular thought has been given to outside entertaining and hidden facets that provide strategic seating areas within the extensive gardens. The landscaped lawns are a real feature to the house, set mainly to the rear with high trees providing the framework to the plot, enabling complete privacy yet with openings to enjoy the superb views. Great thought has been given to the design of the generous gardens, arranged into three tiers, there is an abundance of maturity with a variety of trees and flower boarders. The large terrace area is a serene spot, ideal for entertaining and to take in the views of the gardens which provide the perfect backdrop to such a beautiful home.

SITUATION
Battledown is one of Cheltenham’s most desirable residential locations and hugely sought after. The private estate is beautifully maintained with high calibre houses set on tree lined roads all fronted by manicured verges. Built for the gentry in circa 1859, the estate is characterised by its impressive homes set within spacious plots and enjoying some of the most enviable views in Cheltenham. Much of the charm of Battledown is due to its peaceful setting with easy access to some of the most beautiful riding and walking countryside. Yet its real appeal is the proximity to Cheltenham’s stylish centre, Sky View is within walking distance to Cheltenham’s fashionable shops, Michelin starred restaurants, salons and bars. Less than a hundred miles from London, Cheltenham nestles beautifully between the Cotswold Hills and the Wye Valley, and is home to numerous prestigious schools including Cheltenham College, The Cheltenham Ladies’ College, and Dean Close. Owing to this and the cultural lifestyle on offer, including playing hosts to several highly-acclaimed festivals, it is now regarded as one of the places to live and raise a family.
