Mulberry House Built of Cotswold stone this exceptional home is a perfect combination of traditional design and materials with contemporary features and styling. Accessed via a generous approach with electric gates and culminating in a superb gravelled drive the house lies to the west of the plot taking full advantage of the superb views over Cheltenham. To the side of the house is the Coach House which houses the garaging and a very smart guest/staff apartment.

On entering the property the quality of materials and workmanship are immediately evident; from the stunning triple height reception hall and galleried landing flooded with natural light to the Jerusalem limestone flooring, this is a fantastic light and bright space. The limestone flooring continues through to the spectacular bespoke kitchen/breakfast room, orangery and utility /boot room. The kitchen area is fitted with traditional handmade and painted units, silestone work tops and a range of Meile appliances as well as a 4 oven AGA. The orangery has been designed to exacting standards with a lead roof and electric windows which are heat and rain sensored. There are 3 sets of double doors which open onto the limestone paved terrace where you can fully take in the beautiful surrounding countryside making this a perfect family/entertaining space. The drawing room, sitting room and study all have engineered oak floors with the drawing room having a lovely stone fire surround with open fire and once again large windows to take in the views.

There is a very useful side entrance and lobby with very distinctive black and white tiled floor which leads to the wet room, boiler room and utility/ boot room.

Upstairs the fabulous galleried landing is a particular feature of the property; there is ample space here to create a ‘quiet’ seating area or small library area. Continuing on the first floor there is a beautiful master bedroom suite with dressing room and bathroom (with bath and walk-in shower), 2 guest suites, 2 further double bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the accommodation on this floor. Four of these rooms have lovely views over Cheltenham, with bedroom 2 overlooking the front of the property. On the top floor there is large media/games room, a double bedroom and shower room and a door which leads directly to the attic which could be converted to further accommodation if required (subject to the necessary planning consent).

There is under floor heating throughout the ground and first floors of the property, Villeroy and Boch sanitary ware fitted with Samuel Heath taps & showers and bespoke ironmongery by Turnstyle and Croft on all of windows and doors. The property has a full security system with 12 cameras operating the CCTV and has been pre-wired for a Bang and Olufsen audio system.
