" Take the time to appreciate this fabulous, deceptively spacious, detached dormer bungalow with a layout that has a huge emphasis on versatility.

The ground floor of this well-maintained home comprises an entrance hall; lounge; officereception room; toilet; spacious kitchendiner, expansive conservatory; and 2 double bedrooms (one with ensuite). The downstairs master bedroom has its own double, glazed doors into the conservatory. Upstairs the property enjoys 3 further bedrooms (2 double, 1 single); and the family bathroom.

Originally built in 1930, and added to in 2000, the property has many interesting features worthy of note. The generous kitchendiner-with central island, ample worktop area and integrated double oven, dishwasher & larder fridge-leads into the spacious conservatory, which extends the full width of the house. This makes for a great space for entertaining family & friends. The cosy lounge has its original, period, working fireplace, generous bay window and doors leading to both the hallway and kitchen.
The two, large, downstairs front rooms of this wonderful house really add to its multi-functional space appeal. Over the years these rooms have been used as bedrooms, family rooms, offices, music rooms and playrooms-the original walls of this well-built property give great sound-proofing! A very useful toilet, nestled neatly under the stairs off the hallway, completes the features of the downstairs.

Upstairs boasts a large landing area with relaxed space for reading by the south-facing window. There is also a generous airing cupboard; and partially-floored, large loft space. Further storage space is afforded by a floored area running at the base of the eaves and linking two of the bedrooms. This space is accessed by small pairs of doors in each of these rooms.

Outside there is generous parking to the front which gives access to the detached garage, as well as a large, curved-roof, fully-enclosed car port, which the owners are willing to leave. But it is the south-facing rear of this property, where the exterior really excels! The property enjoys a fantastic, established and well-maintained garden space, entirely built by the current owner who was a landscape designer. Within this green paradise are well-stocked herbaceous and shrub borders; a small wildlife pond with waterfall; pathways to hidden areas, and patios for seating. The rear garden is also home to a raised, wooden, thatched, African-style hut-ideal for quiet relaxing-at the side of a pond. A matching, thatched treehouse with climbing wall, slide & swing, adds to the uniqueness of this property. Located at the top end of the garden are a number of useful outbuildings including a large cedarwood greenhouse, potting shed and workshop.

The most interesting garden building, however, is known to the current owners as the Den. This multi-functional space blends in perfectly with its surroundings and has a beautiful wood-panelled interior. It benefits from its own feature brick fireplace and chimney stack, having once been a part of a Victorian farm cottage. The fully-insulated Den has most recently been used as an art studio, but has also seen use as a photographic studio, home gym and home office. The whole of the garden buildings area benefits from its own full, separate electricity supply giving ample power & lighting. The rear garden is southsouth-west facing, sheltered on either side and overlooks the private playing fields which are edged with mature, protected deciduous trees.
Situated on a sought-after residential road just 10 mins walk from the desirable town of Stratford-upon-Avon, the property is well located to take advantage of the many amenities, retail options and leisure facilities including golf courses, rugby club, race course, swimming pool and leisure centre that Stratford-upon-Avon has to offer.
Being the birthplace of William Shakespeare and home to the Royal Shakespeare Theatre, Stratford-upon-Avon is steeped in history and benefits from many fine restaurants and schools. The river Avon, with its many families of swans, provides a stunning back drop, and for the commuter, the M40 is approximately 15 minutes‘ drive away, with further, close links to the M6, M1 and M5. Major rail links are available from the local station.

These are just some of the features that will make this a home in demand.
