5 bedroom detached house for sale

EDWARDS EXCLUSIVE PRESENTS - Welcome to Glendower, a wonderful character home and former parsonage gifted to the church around 1901. In Stratford, known for its rich history and heritage, character homes are a rarity, but Glendower certainly stands out. This substantial home embodies the charm you would expect from a property of this age, including high ceilings, tall skirting boards, cornicing, bay windows, sash windows, and beautifully proportioned rooms typical of period homes.

Set comfortably in its mature wrap-around plot, Glendower makes a strong first impression as you pull onto the in-and-out drive, highlighting the scale of the property. Boasting nearly 4,000 square feet of space, it appeals to families of all sizes. The home underwent a significant renovation in 2007, including extensions and refurbishments that elevated it to a lovely standard.

Upon entering the ground floor, a charming reception hall greets you with original Minton floor tiles. To the right is a gym with large dual-aspect sash windows overlooking the front and gardens. Next, a delightful family room features a gorgeous bay window and doors leading to the side garden, with a fireplace serving as the room’s focal point. The sitting room boasts a full-height bay window and a wood-burning stove for cosy nights. Double doors lead through to the kitchen area.

Back in the hall, a flexible reception room/bedroom features a tall sash window overlooking the front and an en-suite, making it ideal as another reception room or guest bedroom. A small storage cupboard reveals a glimpse of the house’s original layout, including the remains of the servants’ staircase. Further along the hall, a part-glazed double door leads to the kitchen/dining/family room, flooded with light from three light wells. The kitchen, finished with shaker-style units and an island, offers charming garden views accessed through bespoke sliding doors and a large custom-made pivot door. A practical utility room and downstairs cloakroom complete the ground floor.


A dog-leg staircase leads to a spacious first-floor landing, giving access to four excellent double bedrooms, two with en-suites – a rare feature for a property of this age. The main bedroom boasts twin double built-in wardrobes and a generous en-suite bathroom. A family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms.

Outside, a detached double garage is accessed via a sheltered passageway. Above the garage, a storeroom with a window offers excellent potential for conversion into a home office, gym, cinema room, or whatever suits your needs, subject to the relevant consents. The mature gardens, enclosed by high hedging, wrap around the property, offering various areas including raised beds for growing fruit and vegetables, an extensive patio, and a generous lawned garden. The side garden faces almost due south, allowing you to follow the sun throughout the day. The gravel in-and-out drive and deep foregarden set this charming residence back from the roadside, offering ample parking for even the largest of families and their guests.
