2 bed terraced house for sale

Moorend Road, Leckhampton, Cheltenham, Gloucestershire GL53

Having been extended and thoughtfully updated by the current owners, this two bedroom period home now offers an excellent balance of character and contemporary living, with a particularly impressive kitchen and dining space opening directly onto the rear garden.

The property is set back from Moorend Road behind its own frontage, which has been arranged to provide off-road parking.

Inside, the ground floor begins with a generous living room. This is a comfortable and characterful reception space, with wooden flooring and a wood-burning stove set within the chimney breast providing a natural focal point. There is ample room for a substantial seating arrangement, while the staircase rises to the first floor from one side of the room.

The real transformation is found towards the rear of the home. The kitchen has been substantially extended to create a much larger and more sociable arrangement than the original property offered. Contemporary cabinetry is complemented by timber work surfaces, with a peninsula providing additional preparation space and informal seating.

The kitchen flows naturally into a dedicated dining area, creating an excellent everyday living and entertaining space. Full-width French doors doors open directly onto the garden, bringing plenty of natural light into the room and creating a particularly good connection with outside during the warmer months.

Upstairs, the landing leads to two double bedrooms. The principal bedroom incorporates a substantial range of fitted wardrobes, while the second bedroom is another comfortable double.

The bathroom is particularly generous for a property of this type and has been finished in a contemporary style, with both a freestanding bath and separate walk-in shower, together with a wash hand basin and WC.

Outside, the rear garden has been arranged to provide a combination of decked seating immediately adjoining the house and lawn beyond, with established boundaries creating a good degree of privacy. Pedestrian access provides a useful route to and from the garden without passing through the house.

To the front, the property benefits from off-road parking, another particularly useful feature given its Leckhampton location.

This is a strong example of how a traditional period home can be adapted for modern living. The extended kitchen/dining room has significantly improved the ground floor, while two genuine double bedrooms, a large four-piece bathroom, private garden and off-road parking complete a very appealing home.
