A true family home nestled on one of the most sought after roads within Charlton Kings, just a short walk from the village amenities and the highly coveted Balacrras school.
It is rare to find a detached family home of this scale and Heron House offers an excellent combination of substantial family accommodation within a large and private plot with garaging and ample parking on the pretty School Road.
Beautifully maintained and enhanced over the years the layout is practical and usable, ideal for modern family life. . The light filled entrance hall introduces the reception space and opens to the partly glazed dining room, which acts as an integral point for the principal rooms to connect. To one side is the sitting room, extending to over 24 ft, it enjoys an outlook and access to the terrace and gardens, with a fire as a feature. To the other side, is the kitchen/breakfast room. As with any of the best family homes, this is the heart of the house set to the rear with direct access and views over the garden.
The kitchen itself ismore open plan style with an excellent range of units and integrated appliances with an adjacent utility room and cloakroom with access to the side garden.
The staircase rises to the first floor and a galleried landing with five good-sized bedrooms. The principal bedroom, with an en suite, has been adapted to open to bedroom five, which is used as a dressing room to the principal suite however, this would easily revert back to a bedroom should a new owner require.
A guest bedroom also has the benefit of an en suite. A modern family bathroom serves the remaining two double bedrooms, both of which have fitted wardrobes.
Outside:
Set in grounds of circa 0.25 acres, which is rare for Charlton Kings, the property is positioned discreetly into its plot. To the front, there is ample off road parking and a double garage. To the rear is a lovely area of level lawn with mature borders and trees, although arranged to be easily maintained, it is a pretty garden. The entire plot has a real sense of privacy.
Situation:
School Road is an incredibly special lane discreetly tucked away in the heart of Charlton Kings. A quiet road with very little vehicle or foot traffic, it is lined with attractive homes running down to a ford, making the street scene one of delightful character. It is a peaceful location, in the heart of the village and within a short stroll of the boutique shops, a pharmacy, coffee houses, a well-stocked shop and wine bar at Sixways and those on Lyefield Road. The house offers a short route by foot to both the sought-after Charlton Kings Juniors and Balcarras secondary school. These two schools are widely known with Balcarras reputed for being one of the top schools in the country. This, and the vibrant community on offer, has helped to retain the prestigious status Charlton Kings holds as one of the best addresses within the area. The location also has excellent access onto the A40 for Oxford and London and Cheltenham town centre is under 3 miles away.
