A well proportioned four bedroom detached house requiring general improvement in a quiet Up Hatherley setting.
4 Bluebell Grove is a substantial detached modern house occupying a quiet and established residential position in Up Hatherley. Extending to approximately 1,508 sq ft including the garage, it offers generously proportioned and well balanced accommodation with a practical layout for family life. The house now requires general improvement, including redecoration and replacement floor coverings, giving a purchaser the opportunity to update the interior to their own taste. Importantly, much of the uPVC double glazing has been newly installed and the gas fired central heating boiler is up to date.
The front door opens into a welcoming hall with stairs to the first floor and a ground floor cloakroom. The sitting room lies to the front and is an excellent size, extending to over 19 feet in length. A feature fireplace provides a natural focal point and broad internal doors connect the room with the dining room beyond, allowing the two spaces to work separately or together when entertaining. The dining room has French doors onto the rear garden.
The kitchen/breakfast room is another particularly generous part of the house, measuring over 18 feet in length. It is fitted with a range of units, work surfaces and integrated cooking appliances, with ample room for everyday dining. A wide window and further French doors bring in good natural light and provide a direct connection with the garden. Alongside is a separate utility room, while the integral garage adds useful parking and storage space.
On the first floor, the landing leads to four bedrooms. The two larger bedrooms are comfortable doubles and the remaining rooms lend themselves well to children's bedrooms, guest accommodation or home working. A family bathroom serves the household, while an en suite shower room is accessed from the main bedroom. There is also built in storage on the landing and within the bedroom accommodation.
The house is set behind mature hedging, with a double width driveway providing off road parking in front of the integral single garage. The rear garden is a real feature, being notably generous for a modern house and enjoying a south east aspect. French doors from both the dining room and kitchen/breakfast room open onto a broad paved terrace, beyond which lies a good area of lawn. A gravelled section provides further low maintenance space and a small deck at the far end of the garden offers an additional place to sit. Timber fencing encloses the garden, which offers plenty of scope for further planting and landscaping.
Situation: Bluebell Grove is situated in Up Hatherley, a popular residential area on the south western side of Cheltenham. The neighbourhood is well established and especially convenient for day to day family life, with local shopping facilities, a Morrisons superstore, community facilities and open spaces all within the wider Hatherley area. A choice of primary and secondary schools is also available nearby, while regular bus services connect Hatherley with Cheltenham town centre, the General Hospital and Arle Court Transport Hub.
Cheltenham town centre provides an extensive range of shops, restaurants and leisure facilities, together with the Promenade, Montpellier, the Everyman Theatre and the town's well known programme of literature, jazz, science and music festivals. For outdoor recreation, the parks and playing fields around Hatherley are readily accessible, while Leckhampton Hill and the wider Cotswold escarpment are within easy reach.
Communications are particularly convenient. The A40 gives direct access across Cheltenham and towards Gloucester, Oxford and the wider road network, while Junction 11 of the M5 is readily accessible for travel north and south. Cheltenham Spa railway station offers regular services to London Paddington, Bristol, Birmingham and other principal centres. This combination of a quiet residential setting, nearby amenities and straightforward access to the town makes Bluebell Grove a practical and appealing place to live.
