Clarence Square Cheltenham GL50 4JN

An attractive and substantial Regency Grade II listed townhouse requiring modernisation in this beautiful part of the town centre.

Further Information

10 Clarence Square is an elegant Grade II listed townhouse forming part of an attractive street for which Cheltenham is so well-regarded.  Steeped in local history the property and the road have become a highly coveted address over recent years offering the very best of town living yet a stone's throw from parks and open spaces.  It has been much a treasured family home for many years and as such, would now benefit from comprehensive cosmetic enhancements.  It is rare in this pocket of Cheltenham to find a townhouse on this scale, in its entirety, offering the scope and potential that number 10 does. 

Today's house is full of the original charm and character with a layout that is traditional, typifying its Regency heritage. Despite needing cosmetic work, this is a house that could easily be remodelled and cosmetically enhanced enabling a prospective purchaser to create a home to suit their requirements.

Internally, the accommodation extends over 3726 sq. ft, with stunning proportions and well planned, practical accommodation.  The house is arranged over five floors, with a lower ground floor separately accessed offering a one bedroom apartment that has been previously and successfully let.

Entrance is via a few steps into the hallway with a cantilevered staircase.  The raised ground floor contains two impressive reception rooms, open to each other by way of double doors.  To the rear, is a well-appointed kitchen with French doors onto the garden.  The is an internal staircase leading down to the rear basement offering a sitting room/bedroom, kitchen, shower room and boiler room.

As with any traditional town house, the formal drawing room is set on the first floor.  This elegant room is particularly spacious with balcony looking onto a charming vista of the central garden square.  Adjacent is a further reception room/office which has traditionally been used as a bedroom as there is a large bathroom with separate cloakroom on mezzanine level.

There are three bedrooms arranged around a landing on the second floor, one with an en suite shower room. On the third floor, is another double bedroom with an en suite shower room and a single bedroom, which with some alterations would make a dressing room, cot rom or study.

In all, an attractive townhouse, of great architectural merit, offering a rare opportunity and great potential.

Outside:
There is a paved terrace to the rear and with some work could create a lovely garden space.  There is rear access into the garden from the lane behind, which as others have done, could create off parking, subject to planning.  Residents can acquire parking permits which allows for more parking if required.

Situation:
This is a much sought-after Pittville address, with the name derived from an elegant central garden bordered to each side by attractive period buildings. Just 50 period houses frame the garden square which was designed in the 1800's as a communal area for the gentry to enjoy a game of boules or croquet. Today's garden provides a beautiful area for the residents of Clarence Square to privately use.  The entrance is within a short stroll of Pittville Park, one of the finest urban parks in the country, known for its boating lake, Pump Rooms and pretty cafes.  The town is also known for its excellent schools to include The Cheltenham Ladies' College, Cheltenham College, Berkhampstead and Dean Close, all within a comfortable walk or bike ride. Communication links are excellent from this area, with easy access to the M5 Motorway and main line train station with lines to major cities.
