Description

The property was formerly used as a care home since around 1970. We understand that it was originally a large family home which has been significantly extended. Vacant possession will be available on completion of the transaction.

Location
The property is located approximately 0.4 miles to the north-east of Stratford-upon-Avon town centre.

Stratford-upon-Avon is a market town in Warwickshire, 21 miles (34 km) to the south-east of Birmingham, 18 miles (29 km) to the south-west of Coventry and 36 miles (58 km) to the
north-west of Oxford.

The property is located in Cedar Close a small residential cul-de-sac comprising the care home and five residential bungalows. Cedar Close is accessed from Warwick Road (A439). Stratford town centre provides a range of amenities including national retailers and independent shops and cafés.

There are also nine schools within 1 mile of the property, three of which have an Ofsted rating of ‘Excellent’.

There are two bus stops 0.15 miles to the south-east of the property on Warwick Road with services to the town centre, Stratford College and Kenilworth.

Stratford’s railway station is 0.7 miles to the southwest of the property and Stratford-upon Avon Parkway is located 1.5 miles to the north-west. These stations provide services to Birmingham, Leamington Spa and Worcester.

Birmingham airport is approximately 17 miles to the north of the property.

Specifications
The former care home comprises a two-storey detached building extending to c. 17,577 sq ft (1,633 sqm) GIA. It occupies a roughly rectangular plot extending to 1.27 acres (0.51 ha).

Planning
The Local Planning Authority is Stratford-on-Avon District Council.

While the historical use of the site was classified as Use Class C2 (Residential Care Home), the property now benefits from recently granted full planning permission under reference 25/01562/FUL for the demolition of the existing structure and the development of five high quality dwellings.

This approved scheme comprises three single storey and two split-level residences, offering an immediate opportunity for residential development.

The application was approved on 27 January 2026 and is subject to 15 conditions. The consent is not subject to any Section 106 obligations, affordable housing requirements or CIL.

Parties are encouraged to make their own enquiries with the local authority
