A generously proportioned five bedroom REGENCY TOWN HOUSE, centrally located with period features. Clarence House was originally built circa 1825 by William Joseph Pitt and occupies a prime position opposite the Pittville Gates, the entrance to Pitville Park, Cheltenham. The house has been sympathetically modernised and is ideally located a few minutes walk from the town centre. The house is Grade II listed and contains many original features, including fireplaces, cornicing, ceiling roses, shutters and a beautiful sweeping staircase. The house has an interesting history, being the first "electric" house in Cheltenham as reported in the Gloucestershire Echo (1932) with the original bakelite light switches and even an electric servants bell system displayed in the Kitchen - the original buttons for the servant bells are next to the fireplaces in the main rooms.
