When you arrive at Otley House you will be delighted by its location, walking distance from the centre of Cheltenham but with the many sights and sounds of the Cotswolds easily reached. Its red brick exterior and coloured glass door hides the contemporary and spacious accommodation found inside. Made for celebrations and family gatherings the kitchen opens out into the garden creating an impressive space. You will fill the home with conversation, family feasts, evening board games and create precious memories together.
Otley House makes the best of the space with a snug and dining area to the front of the house and a kitchen with a sitting area to the rear. The wood burning stove in the snug and comfortable velvet sofas makes this a place to put your feet up and enjoy your surroundings. Flashes of colour in greens and golds add elegance. The kitchen is flooded with light from the bi-fold patio doors and skylights in the high ceiling and cooking meals here will be an enjoyable group experience. A comfortable corner sofa lets guests spread out and the children have plenty of space to play and fill the house with laughter. Upstairs each of the four bedrooms has plump, inviting bedding and the master has a feature fireplace adding interest in this dark blue themed room. With sheepskin rugs and cushions these retreats have a luxurious feel and will be welcoming at the end of the day.
You can spend long summer evenings in the garden with a glass of champagne, or head out to the delights of nearby Bath Road, The Suffolks or the centre of Cheltenham for a meal and cocktails. There is off-road parking for 2 cars and additional on-street spaces can be found nearby.
