Driveways in Montpellier
Driveway quotes for Montpellier, Cheltenham's Regency heart: stucco terraces and villas in a conservation area, where traditional surfaces and careful design are not optional.
Driveways for Montpellier's Regency streets
Montpellier is the Cheltenham of the postcards: stucco terraces, wrought iron, mature plane trees, and a conservation area that takes front-garden changes seriously. Where drives exist here at all, they are short, traditional and sympathetic: gravel first, sett-look block paving second, both in tones that sit quietly against stucco. Harsh modern finishes do not belong on these streets, and the planners agree.
Short frontages, high standards
Frontages here are shallow, so most drives are single bays of 15 to 30m². The job is detail: kerb position, edging that respects the masonry, a planted strip retained where possible, and permeable materials that satisfy both the 5m² rule and the conservation officers. Dropped kerbs go through Gloucestershire County Council.
Typical Montpellier prices
Single bays of 15 to 30m² quote £600 to £1,700 in gravel, £1,200 to £3,400 in sett-look block paving. Some plots cannot take a drive at all within conservation rules, and a good contractor will say so at survey.
