Originally two cottages, 6 & 7 Upper Dowdeswell have been imaginatively combined to provide spacious accommodation over 3 floors. A detailed and thorough refurbishment has been carefully completed to retain many original features; an inventive marriage of old and new. Accessed via a gable covered entrance into a front sitting room with a feature open fireplace, a passage leads to a spacious modern kitchen/dining room with a range of integrated appliances and an inglenook fireplace with a wood burning stove. An extension at the rear has created a superb sitting/garden room with two sets of patio doors overlooking the rear garden. A useful utility room with a downstairs cloakroom completes the ground floor. A concealed staircase rises to the first floor where an open landing has doors leading to a principal bedroom with an en-suite shower room, a second double bedroom and a family bathroom complete the first floor. There are two bedrooms on the second floor, accessed via two separate staircases from the first floor landing. Outside, the property has a right of access at the side to the rear garden. The garden is a delight, mainly laid to lawn interspersed with mature planting and backing onto open countryside at the rear, it provides an uninterrupted vista of the valley and Dowdeswell Woods. Freehold Upper Dowdeswell is a charming rural hamlet set on the Cotswold escarpment to the east of Cheltenham. Local amenities can be found in nearby Andoversford and Charlton Kings while the regional centre of Cheltenham provides a comprehensive range of shops and services. Upper Dowdeswell is also ideally placed for access to the A40 for Oxford and London to the east, while Junction 11A of the M5 is also easily accessed via the A436 and A417 providing access to Gloucester and Birmingham to the North, and Bristol and the South West. Cheltenham is a superb place for shopping with an abundance of main high street shops, specialist boutiques, cafés and restaurants. Education is very well catered for including The Cheltenham Ladies’ College, Cheltenham College, Pates Grammar School, St. Edward’s and Dean Close. There are excellent sporting facilities in and around Cheltenham including indoor and outdoor swimming facilities, numerous golf courses and tennis, squash, hockey and croquet clubs. Host to annual cultural festivals including music, literature and jazz, the town is equally famous for horse racing and the annual Gold Cup.
