Summary - THE OLD MISSION PRESTON ON STOUR STRATFORD-UPON-AVON CV37 8NG
Grade II listed 17th‑century cruck‑frame cottage with authentic period features
Discover a rare blend of 17th‑century character and contemporary living in this part‑thatched, Grade II listed cottage in Preston‑on‑Stour. The cruck frame, exposed beams and inglenook fireplace sit alongside a sympathetic brick extension and a bright modern kitchen/dining space — offering about 1,400 sq ft of flexible accommodation across multiple levels.
Set in mature, mainly lawned gardens with paved entertaining areas, the walled plot feels private despite the hamlet setting. A substantial detached outbuilding (garage/office with cloakroom) of over 260 sq ft provides genuine work‑from‑home or hobby potential. Gravel parking and gated access complete the practical picture for everyday family life.
Important practical points: this is Grade II listed, so alterations will be restricted and conservation maintenance (including the thatch) should be budgeted for. Heating is oil‑fired and there is a medium flood risk in the area. The property is offered chain‑free and has been recently reduced in price to encourage a swift sale.
For a buyer seeking character and scope, this cottage delivers immediate charm with future potential — whether as a family home, second home or holiday let subject to consents. Expect ongoing maintenance responsibilities typical of historic cottages, balanced by exceptional period detail and a strong rural location close to Stratford‑upon‑Avon.
