There are three large reception areas to include a sitting room, study, formal dining room plus a large kitchen/living area, conducive to modern lifestyles, as well as a cloakroom and utility room. The property benefits from an economical air source heat pump, under floor heating, high performance double glazing, and outstanding views of the neighbouring fields. Accommodation Summary Ground Floor There is a large entrance hall with wide entrance door and quality Amtico floor with stairs rising to the galleried landing. The hallway has a convenient understairs storage cupboard that houses the electrical consumer unit, there is a further built in cupboard space that is useful for coats and shoes and oak doors that lead to the cloakroom, dining room, study, sitting room and kitchen/living space. The cloakroom is fitted with a Laufen enclosed WC, Laufen wash-basin with mixer tap, Porcelanosa wall and floor tiles. All of the rooms have a great sense of space with high ceilings throughout, the study faces the front of the house and has a double glazed bay window to the front aspect overlooking the foregarden and green areas within the close. Across the hall is the formal dining room, which is currently used as a versatile playroom with again, a double glazed bay window to the front aspect overlooking the foregarden.

There is a large dining space and at the far end of the room a seating area with window to the rear and double glazed doors that lead to the rear terrace. Seller Insight “As we drove down the beautiful tree lined drive to access the development we were immediately impressed, as it didn’t look or feel anything like a standard new build site. We viewed the house in October and, even then, we loved the feeling of light and space. All of the rooms have high ceilings and the sun streams into the back of the house through the French doors and the large windows,” says the vendor. “The original walled garden has genuine character and gives us a huge sense of security and privacy , being south facing it is also a lovely sun trap.. There are good blocks of year-round colour and always something to look at, including the trellises covered with evergreen and the topiary trees.” “We regularly go to Coombe Abbey Park in nearby Coventry Where there are plenty of play areas for the children, grassy areas for ball games, birdwatching and dog walking areas, all set within the grounds of a lovely old hotel. Just 5 minutes away are the cinema and Elliotts Field Shopping Centre with M&S and Debenhams and we like to spend time in Lutterworth which has some lovely little coffee shops. There are lots of nice local pubs in the nearby vicinity where we can go out to dinner with our family.” “There’s a great flow to the house with all of the rooms leading off from the hallway and the central staircase. We turned two of the reception rooms into playrooms for our children and it’s worked really well for us as they have their own television and space for their friends to play.” “We needed to live somewhere with good access to the M1 and the M6 motorways for work purposes and Rugby has a fast rail line to London which has been very useful for my husband. It is very much a country life here but we’re close to all of the amenities we require, so we really do have the best of both worlds.”* * These comments are the personal views of the current owner and are included as an insight into life at the property. They have not been independently verified, should not be relied on without verification and do not necessarily reflect the views of the agent. My family came over to visit us from Australia and they stayed with us for a month. It worked very well as everyone had their own space and they were very taken by the beautiful view over the fields from the bedrooms. There was plenty of room in the house to comfortably accommodate everyone without getting in each others way.” We spend most time in the kitchen dining area where I can be cooking whilst our children are doing their homework. The house is so spacious, it just swallows you up and our friends tend to head to the kitchen when we’re entertaining as the large open plan space which incorporates the garden room is a lovely area to relax in. This house has worked so well for us as a family. It’s a big house with a low maintenance garden and a lovely feeling of space both to the front and the rear, we’re moving on for work purposes, we’ll miss everything about it.” First Floor The galleried landing has a large double glazed sash style window to the front aspect, a quality oak door provides access to the cupboard that houses the hot water cylinder, whilst there is a separate airing cupboard that has linen shelves and an internal radiator. In turn, there are further doors that lead to the family bathroom and the five bedrooms. The master bedroom enjoys views beyond the walled gardens over neighbouring farmland via a rear window, there is a large dressing room with window to the rear and another oak door that leads to the ensuite bathroom. This has been fitted with Porcelanosa tiling and a Laufen suite to include a panelled bath, enclosed WC, wash basin with mixer tap and a shower cubicle with folding door and rainforest style shower above. There is a heated towel rail, LED spotlights and an obscure double glazed window to the side aspect. Bedroom two is also situated at the rear and is a perfect guest room and has a built in double wardrobe and an oak door leading to the ensuite shower room which has Laufen fittings with an enclosed WC and wash basin with mixer tap. The shower cubicle has a folding door and a range of Porcelanosa floor and wall tiles, heated towel rail, halogen spotlights and extractor fan.

The wattle fencing daubed with mud as the infilling or ‘nogging’ to geological map shows that much of this generally low-lying make the walls. In nearly all surviving examples the wooden county is underlain by the red mudstones of the Triassic Mercia frame was built on a low plinth wall of whatever stone was Mudstone Group. This surface cover is however, broken in the available locally. In many cases this is the only indication we Nuneaton-Coventry-Warwick area by a narrow strip of ancient have of the early use of local stones. Adding the stone wall rocks forming the Nuneaton inlier (Precambrian to early served to protect the wooden structure from rising damp. The Devonian) and the wider exposure of the unconformably infilling material has often been replaced later with more overlying beds of the Warwickshire Coalfield (Upper durable brickwork or stone. Sometimes, as fashion or necessity Carboniferous to early Permian). In the south and east of the dictated, the original timber framed walls were encased in county a series of low-lying ridges are developed marking the stone or brick cladding, especially at the front of the building outcrops of the Lower and Middle Jurassic limestone/ where it was presumably a feature to be admired.

  • Archaeological Resource Assessment of the Aggregates Producing Areas of Warwickshire and Solihull
    Warwickshire County Council Archaeological Resource Assessment of the Aggregates Producing Areas of Warwickshire and Solihull Final Report Draft Version 2.0 31/03/2008 By Magnus Alexander with Stuart Palmer and Laurence Chadd Aggregates Levy Sustainability Fund English Heritage Project No 4681 Archaeological Resource Assessment of the Aggregates Producing Areas of Warwickshire Summary This document is an assessment of the archaeology associated with aggregate minerals in Warwickshire and Solihull. The project was undertaken by the archaeology section of Warwickshire Museum Field Services, based within the Adult, Health and Community Services Directorate of Warwickshire County Council. The project has characterised, digitally mapped and subsequently analysed the resource, in order to inform the development of both minerals development frameworks and archaeological research, and provide a sound dataset for management and decision-making. This project primarily matched the criteria in Objective 2 of the Aggregates Levy Sustainability Fund (ALSF; strategic mitigation of future extraction): the analysis of existing data and wider dissemination matched Objective 3 (mitigation of past extraction). This project has used a number of data sources, primarily: relevant geological information, in particular that which is available in digital form from the BGS; relevant archaeological data, contained in the Warwickshire and Solihull HERs; aerial photographic information including additional mapping as part of English Heritage’s National Mapping Programme. The project has resulted in: a corpus of baseline data to inform future strategies; enhancement of the Warwickshire and Solihull HERs; increased awareness of archaeological issues in relation to aggregates extraction; dissemination via this project report, a non-technical leaflet and through the Warwickshire County Council web site.
