Stratford Road, Henley-in-Arden, B95

AN EDWARDIAN GEM IN SOUGHT AFTER LOCATION. This fabulous family home ideally sits on the edge of Henley town centre and offers lots of period charm and character one would expect to find in a home of this period, and with the added benefit of off road parking which is somewhat of a rarity for the town.

A beautifully presented 'Arts and Crafts' Edwardian property which has served our current family well for around 20 years.  The property offers lots of charm and period features throughout but with modern additions such as double glazing and a fabulous Shaker style kitchen, and has been tastefully decorated with muted tones in line with the age of the property.  With high ceilings, aged wooden doors, picture and dado rails being some of the features this home has to offer.   The property sits on the edge of the popular town of Henley in Arden so only a short stroll into the town centre with all of its amenities, schools and great eateries.  

The outside areas here will be of particular interest due to the space and potential to extend to the side STPP, the low maintenance and private West facing rear garden, and of course off street parking for at least 2 cars which is a very sought after feature in these parts.    

LOCATION - HENLEY IN ARDEN 

In Warwickshire, South of Birmingham and North of Stratford, is Henley-in-Arden, a picturesque place to live and visit. Henley-in-Arden is best known for its variety of historic buildings. Some of these buildings date back to medieval times. The Warwickshire town has a wide variety of preserved architectural styles, so much so that they class the high street as a conservation area. In the High Street you will find a variety of little shops, cafes, convenience stores, public houses, and many restaurants to choose from, and a local doctor’s surgery a short walk away. There are beautiful walks in and around Henley and close enough to bigger towns for even more choices of shops and eating places.

LUXURY FAMILY BATHROOM

A spacious and beautiful family bathroom fitted with a white suite comprising, panelled bath, low flush WC, hand wash basin with storage beneath, fully tiled separate shower with waterfall shower and additional hand held attachment.

WEST FACING REAR GARDEN

A low maintenance tiered garden that has been designed very cleverly so as to enjoy the private and slightly unusual layout of the garden. For those with green fingers there is a raised flower bed and lots of space for planters on the lower ground seating area. The raised balcony area, a lovely place to enjoy the sunshine, has been laid with artificial lawn so no mower needed which is always a plus! The side of the house, behind the wooden double gates is currently used for additional storage and part of the garden but could be utilised as part of a side extension (STPP) enlarging the current home, or for additional secure parking for multiple car owners.

The garden also benefits from a small outbuilding which has power therefore making this a viable opportunity to convert into a child's playhouse, craft area, study/office, or a useful laundry/storeroom.
