An appealing family location just a short drive from the historic town of Stratford Upon Avon, Cherry Lane is a green and pleasant neighbourhood built on the former Bearley RAF communication site. When Huw first viewed Number 6, 28 years ago, he was attracted to the Peace and Tranquility of this spacious property. “We moved here from Croydon,” says Huw, “We loved the feel of the area and how large the plot is. It’s a great sized house with plenty of parking which is ideal as we entertain a lot!” Indeed the property provides ample space to park up to five cars.

Ground Floor The entrance hall has a turning staircase rising to the first floor landing with doors leading through to living room, dining room, kitchen and ground floor two piece WC. The kitchen has integral appliances including American fridge/freezer and dishwasher and side access through to the rear garden. The living room has a good sized conservatory onto the rear garden and a gas fire.

Homely

With a large conservatory, well presented lounge with Cast Iron Villager Fire and astro-turfed decking, there is plenty of space for Karen and Huw to entertain their family and friends. “The garden catches the sun all day long,” says Karen, “we have an enclosed front garden as well as a great rear garden and a barbeque area. We have held many summer gatherings on the decking which holds the sun well into the evenings.”

“Our favourite feature has to be the conservatory,” agree the couple, “it’s a great space for dining and in the summer we have the doors open onto the garden.” The former dinning room has been designated as an additional bedroom by the family and currently holds a double sofa bed, TV, electric fire, with the downstairs cloakroom – providing a convenient self contained guest suite. Alternatively it could provide the perfect home office.

First Floor From the first floor landing there are doors leading to the four bedrooms, the master having a three piece en-suite.

There is a family bathroom with a three piece suite.

Bearley has an excellent community with a thriving club, “ the village holds fetes during the summer,” says Karen, “ the community produce a monthly magazine and there is always something going on at the club. It’s a great community and we consider the neighbours more as friends – some even offer to walk the dog for us when we are at work!” The property is just a short distance from Stratford Upon Avon, which alongside its Shakespearean culture and history boasts a well-stocked high street, with a variety of boutique shops and gastro pubs.
