2 bed terraced house for sale

Upper Norwood Street, Cheltenham GL53

Ref: DD1204 – Dominic Dore, eXp. A chain-free, beautifully updated two-bedroom period home, just moments from Cheltenham’s vibrant Bath Road. Retaining its charm, the property features a beautifully extended kitchen, two en-suite bedrooms, a downstairs W.C., a separate living room, and a private garden. With sought-after schools, excellent local amenities, and convenient transport links close by, it offers a perfect blend of classic character and modern convenience.

At the front of this period home, a low brick wall topped with elegant iron railings gently separates the property from the street. Behind it lies a beautifully maintained, low-maintenance front garden, adding a charming buffer from the road.

Upon entering, the porch offers a practical spot to store coats and shoes, before leading you into a cosy sitting room, filled with natural light and offering a comfortable retreat. The room features an electric fire on a stone hearth, with built-in shelving on either side of the fireplace, creating a lovely focal point. Just off the sitting room, you’ll also find a convenient downstairs W.C., complete with a wash hand basin, adding extra practicality.

The heart of the home is the beautifully extended kitchen/diner, measuring over 22 feet in length and thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen offers ample storage alongside a range of integrated appliances, including a fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine, complemented by a built-in electric hob and oven with a stainless steel extractor hood above.

A gas combination boiler is neatly concealed within a cupboard, providing instant heating and hot water on demand. The layout has been cleverly considered, with a breakfast bar ideal for casual dining, while a dedicated space for a dining table is positioned closer to the garden, allowing you to enjoy pleasant views while dining or hosting guests. Two striking light wells flood the room with natural light, creating a bright, airy atmosphere and firmly establishing this space as the true hub of the home

Upstairs, there are two well-proportioned bedrooms, each thoughtfully arranged with its own en-suite. Bedroom two, located at the front of the home, benefits from built-in storage cupboards and its own en-suite shower room. Bedroom one, at the rear, is separated by a central landing, which also provides access to the loft for additional storage. This landing further enhances a sense of privacy between the two rooms. Bedroom one also includes built-in storage, and its en-suite is a real highlight, with both a separate shower cubicle and a bath, plus a window for natural light.

Outside at the rear, French doors open onto a lovely private garden, offering a real sense of seclusion, with no overlooking from neighbouring homes. As you step out from the kitchen, you’ll find a charming stone patio, perfect for relaxing with your morning coffee or alfresco dining. Thoughtfully positioned outdoor lighting and a convenient outside tap add to the practicality. The garden is gently tiered, with a step above a sleeper, leading along a winding path flanked by raised beds and carefully chosen shrubs. At the rear of the garden, tucked away, is a storage area for bins and garden furniture, and a back gate provides easy access onto the lane behind, adding even more convenience.

In terms of its position, the property is ideally located for the wide range of local amenities in the popular Bath Road area of Cheltenham. Within a short walk, you are surrounded by an excellent mix of independent shops, including restaurants, cafés, bars, bookshops, and a post office, alongside larger conveniences such as Sainsbury’s and Co-op supermarkets. The area benefits from a strong sense of community and a village-like atmosphere, while still being just moments from the town centre.

Cheltenham town centre is a short journey away, offering a vibrant hub of shopping, dining, and cultural experiences.
