OPEN HOUSE - STARTING BID £1.25m - CALL TO BOOK YOUR VIEWING…… Welcome to Glendower – A Rare Gem in the Heart of Historic Stratford-Upon-Avon.

Step into the elegance of a bygone era with Glendower, a captivating former parsonage gifted to the church around 1901. Nestled in the heritage-rich town where large, detached character homes are a true rarity, Glendower stands as a proud testament to timeless architecture and refined living.

From the moment you arrive, the grandeur of this impressive residence is undeniable. Set behind a generous in-and-out driveway, the home is framed by mature wrap-around gardens and a commanding foregarden that enhances its stately presence. Spanning nearly 4,000 square feet, Glendower is ideally suited to modern family life, offering abundant living space and a perfect blend of historical charm and contemporary comfort.

Inside, original period details enchant at every turn – soaring ceilings, ornate cornicing, deep skirting boards, elegant bay and sash windows, and rooms that are generously proportioned with the grace and symmetry so characteristic of homes from this era.

The welcoming reception hall sets the tone, with original Minton floor tiles underfoot. To one side, a light-filled study offers dual-aspect sash windows overlooking the gardens, while a beautifully appointed family room invites relaxation with its stunning bay window, garden access, and feature fireplace. The sitting room, perfect for cosy evenings, centres around a wood-burning stove and a full-height bay window that bathes the space in natural light.

The home’s flexible layout continues with a versatile ground floor guest suite, complete with a tall sash window and en-suite – ideal for visitors or multi-generational living. A charming nod to the home’s past appears in a hidden cupboard that reveals remnants of the original servant’s staircase.

The heart of the home is the expansive kitchen/dining/family space – a wonderfully light and social hub. With shaker-style cabinetry, a central island, and large bespoke sliding and pivot doors opening onto the gardens, this area seamlessly connects indoor and outdoor living. Three skylights add to the sense of space and light, while a utility room and cloakroom offer essential day-to-day practicality.

Upstairs, a sweeping staircase leads to a generous landing and a further four elegant double bedrooms. Two feature their own en-suites – a luxurious rarity in period homes – while the principal suite boasts twin built-in wardrobes and a spacious en-suite bathroom. A stylish family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms.

Beyond the main house, a detached double garage provides ample storage and parking. Above, a windowed storeroom holds exciting potential – whether as a home office, gym, cinema room, or creative studio.
