A beautifully remodelled village home, offering almost 3,000 sq ft of space, a wide plot, and backing onto open farmland.

Tucked away behind double gates in the heart of Wilmcote – a pretty and well-connected village just a few miles from Stratford-upon-Avon – this former cottage has been transformed into a substantial and well-balanced family home. The house stretches wide across its plot, a design that not only gives it curb appeal but also allows for excellent proportions inside.

Wilmcote itself is steeped in history, famously known as the childhood home of Mary Arden, mother of William Shakespeare. Today it offers a welcoming community atmosphere and a surprising number of amenities for a village of its size – including a popular local pub, a village shop, a well-regarded primary school, and its own train station with direct links to Stratford and Birmingham. It’s a location that offers the charm of village life without feeling cut off.

Step into a generous open hallway – a welcoming space perfect for greeting guests. To one side, the sitting room runs from front to back, filled with natural light from its dual aspect windows and lined with built-in bookcases along an entire wall, creating the ultimate home library or reading nook.

Across the hall lies the heart of the home: a generous kitchen and dining space fitted with shaker-style units, quartz worktops, integrated appliances and a Quooker tap. This sociable space flows naturally into a study, ideal for working from home, and a utility room with downstairs loo and access to the garden.

At the rear of the property is a second sitting room – an atmospheric space centred around an inglenook fireplace with exposed brickwork and a multi-fuel stove. This in turn opens into a lovely glass-roofed conservatory, complete with electric underfloor heating and tranquil garden views.
Upstairs, you’ll find five excellent double bedrooms, all with built-in wardrobes. The main suite includes a separate dressing room and a spacious en suite with bath, double shower and twin sinks. The family bathroom, with both bath and separate shower, serves the remaining bedrooms. All bathrooms benefit from electric underfloor heating for added comfort.

The original single garage has been converted into a workshop, while a large double garage sits to the side, complete with recessed storage and built-in cupboards. Outside, the gardens are mature and private, with hedged boundaries, planted borders, a broad patio area with electric awning and views over the fields behind Mary Arden’s House. There’s also a front lawn and ample parking for several vehicles behind the gates.
