School Road, Charlton Kings – A Beautifully Balanced Family Home in the Heart of a Sought-After Location


Tucked away on one of Charlton Kings’ most desirable roads, School Road is a beautifully presented four-bedroom detached family home offering a perfect blend of charm, space, and practicality.

 
To the front, double gates open onto a generous block-paved driveway with parking for at least four vehicles, framed by established planting that provides both privacy and curb appeal. The solid wood front door with its elegant surround opens into a spacious and welcoming entrance hallway—setting the tone for the quality and character found throughout the home.

 
To the left, a large bay-fronted lounge centres around a cosy log gas fire stove, perfect for relaxed evenings. From here, step into a charming home office and library nook, ideal for working from home or quiet reading. This flows through into a bright games room, which in turn leads into the kitchen—designed with family living in mind. The kitchen features a large central island and double doors opening out onto the rear garden, making it a natural hub for entertaining and daily life.

 
Adjacent to the kitchen is a versatile snug—perfect as a children’s playroom, second office, or larger reading room. This leads into a pretty conservatory, again with French doors out into the garden, offering lovely views and excellent connectivity between the indoor and outdoor spaces.

 
To the rear of the kitchen, a separate utility room includes a downstairs WC and has direct access from the outside—ideal for muddy boots, children or dogs after garden play or long walks.

 
Upstairs, a wide and light-filled staircase takes you to the main landing, with four generous double bedrooms leading from it. The principal bedroom, with its bay window, benefits from a modern en suite shower room. A stylish family bathroom with shower over bath serves the remaining bedrooms and enjoys views over the beautifully tended rear garden.

 
The garden itself is a standout feature, offering a spacious lawn, raised vegetable beds, a sun terrace with chiminea, and a mature weeping willow at the far end. A stream runs along one side of the boundary, adding a serene, natural feel.

 
At the bottom of the garden sits a large outbuilding—originally a garage but now converted into a fully powered and lit home gym. This flexible space would make an ideal creative studio, workshop, or even a self-contained Airbnb conversion, subject to the necessary permissions. Additional garden storage is also provided.

 
Charlton Kings is one of Cheltenham’s most sought-after residential areas, known for its strong community feel, charming village centre and proximity to the Cotswold countryside. The property is ideally situated for local amenities, with independent shops, cafes, a pharmacy and several pubs all within walking distance.


For families, the location is second to none. School Road falls within the catchment area for several highly regarded schools, including the Outstanding-rated Balcarras School, just a short stroll away. Charlton Kings Infants and Junior Schools are also close by, along with a range of excellent private options such as St Edward’s and Cheltenham College within easy reach.

 
Outdoor enthusiasts will enjoy nearby walks along the Cotswold Way and Leckhampton Hill, while central Cheltenham—with its festivals, boutiques and fine dining—is just a few minutes’ drive or cycle away.
