Situated in a superb position in this charming cul-de-sac is a spacious, detached property. Houses on Hartley Close rarely come to the market and as such, they are highly sought after, as they make wonderful family homes with excellent accommodation, balanced bedroom to living space, with lovely gardens so close to the villages of Charlton Kings and Leckhampton.
The ground floor contains the living space set around a generous entrance hall, at a little over 2100 Sq Ft, the accommodation is well planned and practical. To the front of the house, adjacent to the cloakroom, is a study that has often been used as an occasional bedroom 5 and to the other side of the hall, the living room, with gas fire. This wonderfully bright room is functional, connecting to both the dining room and conservatory, making an ideal family space with views over the garden.
The kitchen is well appointed with a range of units, and an area for a breakfast table with sliding doors leading to the terrace and gardens. Adjacent, also with outdoor access, is the utility room which opens to the integral garage.
On the first floor are four generous bedrooms. The master bedroom has a benefit of an en suite shower room and three of the four bedrooms have built in wardrobes. A modern family bathroom serves these bedrooms.
Outside:
From the sought-after road in which the house is positioned, a driveway provides formal parking to the front and access to the double garage. The garden wraps around the house with the main garden set to the side which has a lovely southerly aspect. A patio terrace links the lawn to the house, this entire space has been designed to be low maintenance yet a place to play and enjoy.
Situation:
Hartley Close is an exclusive and quiet cul-de-sac occupying a distinctive and unique position at the end of Sandy Lane, one of Cheltenham's finest residential addresses. With views from the rear of the house to Leckhampton Hill and direct access to some of the most beautiful walking countryside within the area, it has the feel of a semi-rural setting yet both Cheltenham and Charlton Kings are easily reachable by foot, bike or car with quick motorway access to both the A417 and A40, Oxford and London commute. The village itself is considered one of the very best in Cheltenham, renowned for its exceptional local state schools, Charlton Kings Junior and Balcarras Secondary and its rich community spirit. Southdown is also in the priority catchment area for the new The High School Leckhampton.
There is a wide selection of day to day amenities available with excellent local shops in addition to several quality places to eat. Cheltenham offers a more extensive range of shopping and leisure facilities including East Glos Tennis Club and golf at The Lilleybrook, both just a short walk from the house. In addition to hosting several highly acclaimed festivals, Cheltenham is most known for its exceptional schooling with The Cheltenham Ladies' College, Cheltenham College, Dean Close and The Richard Pate Junior school all within a very short drive or stroll. The location of Southdown is idyllic for those seeking a rare balance of a countryside setting yet extremely close to culture, shopping and schools.
