Church Lane, Bearley, Stratford-Upon-Avon Warwickshire CV37

Scroobys is a beautifully presented Grade II Listed home that dates back 400 years and is one of the oldest houses in the heart of the desirable village of Bearley, believed once owned by one of the original Pilgrim Fathers. Combining period charm with stylish contemporary finishes, the property offers versatile accommodation complemented by a landscaped garden with attractive entertaining terrace and implemented planning permission for a detached double garage.

Throughout the home exposed beams, original character detailing, and thoughtful interior styling create a wonderful sense of warmth and personality, whilst the layout lends itself perfectly to modern family living and entertaining.

Ground Floor

The property is entered via a welcoming hallway with floor to ceiling glazing giving a glimpse of the garden and connecting the original house with the extension to the rear.

At the heart of the property is the spacious living room, a wonderfully inviting space featuring exposed ceiling beams, a feature fireplace with log-burning stove, and windows overlooking the gardens. The room offers an excellent balance of character and comfort, creating a superb environment for both relaxing evenings and entertaining.

Positioned separately from the main living accommodation is the sitting room, a versatile reception space equally well suited as a playroom, snug, or home office. French doors open directly onto the terrace allowing the inside and outside living spaces to connect seamlessly during the warmer months.

The kitchen has been beautifully styled with shaker cabinetry, Belfast sink, a traditional Aga style range cooker, and space for an electric oven and induction hob. Complemented by exposed brickwork and original timbers which enhance the cottage charm of the home. There is ample storage and preparation space together with views over the gardens.

Accessed via either the kitchen or the living room is the impressive dining room extending to over 16 feet in length, creating a superb social hub for entertaining and family gatherings with direct access to the front garden through the original front door.

The ground floor also benefits from a contemporary family bathroom, perfect for those requiring single level living.

First Floor

The first floor of the original part of the house provides three well-proportioned bedrooms.

The principal bedroom is a generous double room featuring built-in storage and a beautifully appointed en-suite shower room.

Two further double bedrooms also feature built-in wardrobes with one further benefitting from dual aspect windows and charming exposed brickwork.

A staircase rising from the sitting room in the extended section of the home leads to a further double bedroom with en-suite shower room, ideal as guest accommodation or for semi-independent living.

Outside

Scroobys occupies a delightful position within the village and enjoys beautifully landscaped gardens designed to maximise the enjoyment of the outside space.

To the rear, a generous paved terrace provides the perfect setting for al-fresco dining and entertainment, bordered by mature planting and raised beds, creating a wonderfully private atmosphere.

The garden extending beyond the terrace is mainly laid to lawn and beautifully framed by mature trees and established borders, creating a private and peaceful setting with ample space for the approved detached double garage.

The property is approached via a shared driveway and additional land on the other side of this driveway belonging to Scroobys currently provides further parking for three to four vehicles, together with a substantial enclosed chicken run offering excellent flexibility for those seeking additional outdoor or hobby space.
