Percy House

Percy House is in a residential area, at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac just north of the centre of the famous medieval market town of Stratford-upon-Avon. The house has recently been refurbished from top to bottom, outside and in, while retaining its 1930’s features, including the front door’s Art Deco stained-glass. At the front is a gravelled parking area for two cars. A side gate opens to a path leading to a south-facing patio and garden – a secluded and private suntrap that is accessed from the inside through the kitchen-dining room’s sliding doors. The patio has a BBQ and outdoor dining table and seating for six, providing a fabulous space to enjoy al fresco drinks and meals.

Ground Floor

Hall:
Open the original, 1930’s door with its Art Deco, stained glass and step into the hallway where there are hooks to hang coats and space to leave outdoor shoes.

Living Room:
This lovely room at the front of the house, features an original bay window with half-height wooden shutters and a striking red earth-coloured feature wall. The room comfortably seats six guests on two sofas and a large bean bag and has a smart TV (with Xbox) and flame-effect, contemporary fireplace with mood lighting.

Kitchen-Dining Room:
Continue through to the rear of the house and into the uber-stylish kitchen-dining room. At one end is a rectangular, oak dining table set in front of a milky plum-coloured wall with film set-style lighting. At the other end is the fabulous kitchen, with a long central island and four bar stools, the hob and sink, a seating area with a comfy sofa below a striking lantern ceiling and a fully-equipped kitchen with every appliance needed concealed behind floor-to-ceiling units. At the far end is an all-glass end wall that slides open to the patio and garden. On a sunny day with the glass doors fully open, this beautiful room feels like it is part of the garden. This whole area has underfloor heating beneath engineered-oak flooring.

Utility Room/Cloakroom:
Off the dining area is a handy utility room with a washing machine, sink, clothes airer, ironing equipment, and cupboards and shelves with cleaning/washing products. Please note the ironing equipment and cloths airer are stored in the large cupboards in the kitchen.

Second Floor

Bedroom Three – Master bedroom:
This top-floor room - once the attic - has been cleverly converted into a super-stylish and spacious, dual aspect Art-Deco style ensuite bedroom, which overlooks the garden and rooftops of the neighbouring houses. The bedroom is furnished with a standard double bed on a handsome Victorian-style bedframe, with bedside chests of drawers and reading lamps, and a free-standing wardrobe with hanging space and drawers. Three Velux windows (with blinds) throw light down the staircase and onto the seating area where there is a small day chair.

The stylish ensuite has floor-to-ceiling polished tiling, a double walk-in shower with rainfall and hand-held shower heads, a toilet, a hand basin, a vanity unit with a mirror, and a heated towel rail.

Outside

Open the sliding doors in the kitchen to a large, private patio, with a six-person garden table, six foldaway chairs – for dining or sunbathing - a parasol and a large charcoal BBQ – the perfect place to enjoy outdoor dining. Steps lead up to a lawn, a lovely spot for relaxing and sunbathing in this suntrap of a garden. A path leads down the side of the house to a gate, with padlock, which leads to the front of the house. A storage unit sits side down the side of the house. Inside guests will find a BBQ for six adults and six, foldaway chairs. The rubbish and recycle bins are also stored in this area. (Please note: the photos show a smaller table and four chairs. These have been updated as described above.) To the front of the property is a planted, gravel area with parking for two cars.
