Great Norwood Street, Cheltenham, GL50

A grade II listed five storey Regency town house requiring restoration, offering scope to create a luxurious fashionable home through a programme of modernisation, situated in the heart of the “The Suffolks” and with the benefit of a detached garage

A handsome listed townhouse with rendered elevations relieved by sash windows, featuring ornate wrought iron window boxes and set back from a wide footpath behind railings. The property requires a programme of restoration and reinstatement with particular focus on the ground and lower ground floors. Arranged over 5 floors, the top floor bedroom has a large dormer window providing a glorious view across Cheltenham to the west. The second floor accommodates a bathroom and the principal bedroom with an ensuite shower. There is an elegant drawing room on the first floor with floor-to-ceiling sash windows and a beautiful ornate fireplace plus a further double bedroom on this floor. The ground floor has two connecting rooms designated for kitchen/dining; the kitchen units have been removed with the exception of the sink. A porch, hall & cloakroom complete this floor. The basement was previously let as a self-contained flat (rear access only) and it should be possible to re-instate the internal staircase (subject to planning) if desired. Currently three rooms requiring extensive renovation, with a cloakroom and shower. There is a planning application pending 23/01468/FUL for internal alterations, incorporation of the basement flat back into the main house and demolition/rebuild of the detached garage.

Outside
A walled garden and lower courtyard requiring total re-landscaping. At the rear, a large detached garage has an electric door and personal door at the side. A secure rear gate connects to a wide vehicular access lane off Casino Place.
