Description
A detached family home of substantial proportions and excellent lateral accommodation, accompanied by a stylish finish with a modern design. The houses on Eldorado Road are recognised as being the most wonderful family homes, due to their superbly balanced living and bedroom space and generous plot size. Another excellent feature of this property is the peaceful spot which it occupies, yet it is only a short stroll into Montpellier and Cheltenham’s cultural centre.
This lovely family home spans c3071 Sq Ft over two floors with a floorplan that has been cleverly designed to offer a mix of formal and informal rooms. An entrance hall introduces the reception rooms and to the front of the house, a home office, the sitting room and a cloakroom. Behind here is the formal dining room with two glazed doors that open to the garden room, which enjoys a full aspect view of the mature gardens. Fitted with limestone flooring and underfloor heating, this is a wonderful space to enjoy throughout the seasons and with direct access to the kitchen. It is an excellent area in which to entertain. The kitchen, family and breakfast room is the heart of this home, featuring a range of fitted units, integrated appliances and bifold doors that open directly to the slate terrace and grounds. Off the kitchen is a boot room with an internal door leading to a secondary utility room, both ideal for pets and shopping. In addition, there is a further utility off the sitting room housing the boiler and a range of fitted cupboards.
The first floor arrangement is equally impressive, providing a delightful principal bedroom suite that enjoys views over the garden and has the benefit of an en suite and built in storage.
