Overview

The above two properties will be offered for sale as 'one lot' by public auction (subject to prior sale, reserve and conditions) at 6:30pm on Tuesday 16th December 2025 at The View, Hill Farm Marina, Stratford Road, Wootton Wawen, Warwickshire, B95 6DE (///glance.dance.rival).

Introduction

Numbers 56 and 57 Waterside comprise a pair of probably Victorian terrace cottages, traditionally constructed of mainly solid 9-inch brick walls under red clay tiled roofs and are sold together as one lot, together with a right of way between number 56 and the Dirty Duck public house.

Stratford upon Avon is world renowned as the home of ‘The Bard’, William Shakespeare, and has a wide range of shops, restaurants and cafes, together with the Royal Shakespeare Theatre and ‘The Other Place’.

There are excellent communications to the national motorway network (M40 (J15) and M42 motorway), while Stratford upon Avon railway station has trains on the north Warwick line to Birmingham (Moor Street and Snowhill), with Birmingham International Airport and future HS2 hub within easy driving distance.

Situated to the north of The Cotswold Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, there are numerous tourist centres within easy driving distance.

It is felt that 56 and 57 Waterside, once refurbished, would make ideal Airbnb/letting properties or as a ‘bolt hole’ or full time residence within the heart of this historic market town, overlooking the River Avon and Swan Gardens.

It should be noted that number 57 has been almost completey ‘stripped out’, with no kitchen or bathroom fittings. Both properties require complete renovation/refurbishment to bring them back into a habitable state.
