Zara Tindall and her husband Mike Tindall have a family home on the grounds of Princess Anne's estate Gatcombe Park, but before living there they resided at Hallery House in Cheltenham – which was an incredibly special place to live.

The couple announced their engagement outside the house in December 2010, but the home itself remained private until it went up for sale years later. The listing explained it was a rare property being a detached townhouse and the royals sold the home for £1.2million in 2013, but by 2017 it was worth a staggering £1.69million. Take a full tour of its enchanting interiors – complete with hot tub, cinema and gym…

The building

The townhouse is listed as a Grade II property, set over four floors with almost 5,000 square feet of space. Nick Chivers of Knight Frank who listed the property told the Daily Mail, "The Tindalls weren't here that long but they refurbished it to what it is now.

The current owners bought it from them and have gone on to improve it further by building a double garage which completes the package. The house is detached, which is pretty rare for townhouses in Cheltenham, and there are lots of great amenities close by. The basement could be used as a separate self-contained apartment, so it's a massively flexible property."

Inside, the home has a spacious master bedroom, as well as six additional bedrooms. The master suite has three enormous bay windows with sash shutters, and is decorated with cream walls and wooden floors. Nick Chivers of Knight Frank added that Mike and Zara had designed the property to look exactly how it did at the time. "The Tindalls did a great job of making it look very beautiful," he said.
