Description
Langdale is a contemporary home designed entirely for its plot and views which extend over open countryside and further to the famed, Cheltenham Racecourse. Designed to take in a picture perfect vista from every living space, the setting is idyllic and inside the interiors are a calming and modern aesthetic. The standard of finish is of the highest quality, yet the current owner has significantly upgraded the house to create a luxurious feel with all modern commodities added for extra comfort. The result of which is the most beautiful, light filled home that would suit all genres and tastes.

Extending to over 3300 Sq ft, the accommodation is beautifully planned and styled, cleverly conceived to use every inch of its space in the most practical way. The ground floor contains a sitting room to the front of the house which is currently arranged as a study to the front and across the rear and side, is the most impressive part of the house, the open plan kitchen, dining and family room with fully glazed bi fold doors out to the terrace and garden. This wonderfully bright and contemporary room is functional yet sociable and has a range of modern fitted units and integrated appliances to one side, with a large central island unit overlooking the spacious dining area making it ideal for entertaining and family life alike. Whilst open plan, the sitting room forms an area in itself within the room, in front of the wall fire. From the kitchen is access to a utility room, with a door directly into the garage, and a very useful, separate boot room with fitted cabinetry and direct access to outside, making it ideal for pets and as a secondary entrance point.
The bedroom space on the first floor is excellent. The principal suite is a beautiful room with bi fold doors that open to take in the views of the garden and the broader, open countryside vista. There is an excellent walk in wardrobe and an en suite shower room. In symmetry, a guest bedroom also enjoys the same outlook and size with a fitted wardrobe.

Across the front of the house, arranged around a wide landing, are two double bedrooms, both of which offer storage and a luxury family bathroom with a free standing bath.
