2 bed detached house for sale

Moorend Crescent, Cheltenham GL53

This is one of those rare gems that doesn’t come along very often, a detached two bedroom home in one of Cheltenham’s most sought after spots, just a short stroll from the Bath Road and within catchment for some of the town’s top rated schools. There’s also real potential here to extend in to the loft and create another bedroom with an en suite. STPP.

The current owners have put their own stamp on the property, with the standout feature being a stunning kitchen extension that’s completely transformed the ground floor.

Accomodation

The impressive 23ft reception room is full of character, featuring painted white floorboards, exposed brickwork, a striking working fireplace, and classic plantation shutters that add a classic touch. The space is wonderfully versatile, there’s plenty of room for comfortable seating as well as a dedicated home office area, making it ideal for both relaxing and working from home. A discreetly tucked away cloakroom adds to the practicality of the ground floor.

This opens out into the kitchen. A bright and high ceilinged open plan space that’s perfect for both everyday living and entertaining.

It includes a bespoke central island topped in marble and clad in vintage metal tiles and a full size range cooker. It’s full of personality and well thought out, with integrated appliances,
granite worktops, and plenty of storage. Wide wooden French doors spill out onto a gravelled courtyard garden, with a lovely Provençal feel.

Upstairs, there are two well proportioned double bedrooms, each offering comfortable and versatile space.

The principal bedroom is a bright and airy space, enhanced by its high ceilings and two large windows that not only flood the room with natural light but also offer pleasant views across the surrounding rooftops and Cotswold hills beyond. Thoughtfully designed, it includes two built in cupboards for practical storage and a discreet wash basin for added convenience.

The bathroom is particularly attractive, generously sized and thoughtfully finished with painted white floorboards, a sleek walk in shower lined with classic white metro tiles, and a contemporary freestanding bathtub that adds a touch of modern luxury.

There’s fantastic scope to grow with the house too, perhaps by reconfiguring the existing layout to create a third bedroom, or converting the boarded loft (subject to planning) into a principal suite with its own en-suite bathroom.

Outside

The house sits slightly back from the road behind elegant wrought iron railings, framed by a mature wisteria providing a splash of colour when in bloom. To the side, there’s handy gated access leading to the rear garden, which enjoys a sunny southerly aspect.

The garden itself is private and effortlessly pretty, with established climbing plants and a gravelled surface that keeps maintenance to a minimum. It’s the kind of space that feels like a little escape, perfect for a morning coffee or winding down with a glass of wine, without needing to spend your weekends mowing lawns !
