Rowan House Pages.indd 3 15/09/2016 15:53 Rowan House Pages.indd 4 15/09/2016 15:53 Ground Floor The property has an entrance porch with a double glazed entrance door and a further leaded glazed door preceding an entrance hall with a staircase leading to the first floor and doors that lead to the dining room, study, kitchen and cloakroom. Under the stairs there is a large cellar beneath the sitting room that provides a significant amount of useful storage. The cloakroom has a pedestal wash hand basin, a low level WC and a built in cupboard housing the electrical consumer unit which ‘doubles up’ as a useful pantry. The formal dining room has a dual aspect with double glazed doors leading to all of the rear terraces and a double glazed leaded window to the side aspect. The study is situated at the front of the house and has double glazed window to the front, timber floor, telephone and TV point; this could also be used as an additional snug or games room. The kitchen is situated at the front of the house with views across the frontage and foregardens via a double glazed leaded window. There is a variety of matching base and wall mounted units, electric halogen hob with extractor hood and built in Zanussi oven, a one and a half bowl sink and drainer and built in fridge freezer.

There is a variety of exposed ceiling beams and a floor to ceiling contemporary style radiator. Further steps lead to the extension which was added by the present owners; at present this is used as a large music/hobby room with a semi-sprung timber floor - with very little imagination it could provide a potential purchaser with a larger kitchen/breakfast room. There are three Velux roof windows which provide ample natural light and double glazed patio doors that lead to the rear whilst three further double glazed windows and a double glazed door provide an impressive bay to the right hand side; again leading to the rear garden. The current focal point of the room is an impressive log burner which is set beneath a brick built exposed chimney breast. Rowan House Pages.indd 5 15/09/2016 15:53 Seller Insight Rowan House is a large and attractive family home that enjoys a superb location right in the heart of the sought after village of Flecknoe. “Before we happened upon Rowan House in 2001, we had been searching the length and breadth of Warwickshire for a new home, but it was proving incredibly difficult to find the right house in the right location,” says Alice, “and then we noticed an advert in the paper for this property. We decided to travel up to take a look, and fell for it straight away.” “It was built by a local contractor in 2000, but although it was brand new when we purchased it, it was still in need of a few finishing touches. We added all the fixtures and fittings and decorated throughout, but the biggest change came with the addition of the dance studio. It’s a lovely big light and bright room with a sprung floor and mirrored wall, and over the years has been well used for all of our creative activities. The rest of the house is spacious and bright and has a really welcoming feel throughout; it’s been a beautiful house to live in.” “What I particularly love is the fact that both the house and garden are incredibly peaceful and private, and yet we feel very much a part of a very vibrant village community,” says Alice. “There are all sorts of clubs and societies to join, a cricket team, an active church and a lovely pub that serves food. And a number of the school busses pass through the village, so it’s a beautiful place to bring up a family.” “The dance studio has become the real hub of our home,” says Alice. “We do all of our arts and crafts in there, it’s where we play our musical instruments and it also doubles as a yoga studio. It has doors that open onto the garden that can be flung open when the weather is warm, and it also has a little stove, which creates a cosy atmosphere in winter.” “I’ve enjoyed the lifestyle that the location has afforded us,” says Alice. “I love being a part of village life, but I also like the fact that I can hop in the car and be in Daventry in ten minutes or Leamington Spa in under half an hour. It’s a fantastic place to live.” “We have a double garage above which is an incredibly useful space,” says Alice. “We used it as a home gym, but it could also be used as an office, a games room… there are endless possibilities.”* Rowan House Pages.indd 6 15/09/2016 15:53 Rowan House Pages.indd 7 15/09/2016 15:53 What will I miss? Everything about this house; I love it. It’s spacious, bright and airy and just has a really nice feel to it. It’s stunning as it is, but it also has so much potential to be enhanced further. Rowan House Pages.indd 8 15/09/2016 15:53 Rowan House Pages.indd 9 15/09/2016 15:53 Rowan House Pages.indd 10 15/09/2016 15:53 Rowan House Pages.indd 11 15/09/2016 15:53 First Floor There are four bedrooms on the first floor together with a family bathroom. Bedroom three has a hardwood floor and a double glazed window to the front, plus two Velux roof windows; this is an impressive double room, with enough space for a desk. Adjacent to this is bedroom four, again a double bedroom with a double glazed window to the rear. Bedroom six has a double glazed window to the front whilst bedroom five is an ideal guest room with again a double glazed window overlooking the foregarden and an en-suite shower room with double glazed window to the rear, pedestal wash hand basin and low level WC, together with a corner shower cubicle with rainforest style shower head over. Stairs then continue to the second floor. Second Floor There is a large landing with a Velux roof window providing ample natural light and access to bedrooms one and two. Bedroom one has double glazed window to the side aspect and a large Velux roof window whilst bedroom two has a double glazed Velux roof window to the rear and a double glazed window to the side. The landing on this floor is sizeable and if building regulations and plumbing options permit, there could be enough room to create an additional shower room to serve the two bedrooms on this floor.

  • The Cottage Wolfhampcote | Rugby | Warkwickshire | CV23 8AR the COTTAGE
    The Cottage Wolfhampcote | Rugby | Warkwickshire | CV23 8AR THE COTTAGE Built in the late 19th century, this charming country cottage occupies a very peaceful and picturesque location within ‘the lost’ village of Wolfhampcote. It’s said to have been abandoned in the late 14th century – local legend has it that it was wiped out by the plague – and it is now home to just a farmhouse, the old vicarage, the village church and The Cottage, which in more recent times has been beautifully restored. The Cottage is situated in the delightful hamlet of Wolfhampcote and overlooks the church of St Peter and is surrounded by countryside and lies just on the Warwickshire and Northamptonshire border. The property itself was previously two farmers cottages, was believed to be constructed in around 1850 and whilst the property requires some modernisation, it is clear that such a desirable location is rarely available in the modern world. The house itself has two well proportion first floor bedrooms and a family bathroom, then on the ground floor there is a kitchen-breakfast room and sitting room. The house also has a range of very useful outbuildings including a double garage ,wash house ,large workshop and various other storage areas dotted around and attractive garden which measures 0.19 of an acre in total. The house has Northamptonshire stone elevations and a slate tiled roof and benefits from oil fired central heating and double glazed windows. KEY FEATURES Ground Floor The property has a dual-entrance porch with a back door leading to the yard and a glazed front door, the other glazed door has a double-glazed leathered window that overlooks the frontage and a further glazed door that leads to the kitchen- breakfast room.

  • Northamptonshire Record Office
    GB0154 DRMC Northamptonshire Record Office This catalogue was digitised by The National Archives as part of the National Register of Archives digitisation project NRA 21387 The National Archives NORTHAMPTONSHIRE RECORD OFFICE DAVENTRY METHODIST CIRCUIT INTRODUCTION Wesleyan Methodism was first introduced into the Daventry area with the formation of a society in the village of Norton, about 1788. This was shortly followed by a Daventry society, in 1797, which met in a meeting house in New Street and later built the methodist chapel in Chapel Lane, 1801. This chapel was soon closed, to be used for a school, and a new chapel, in Cow Lane, was erected in 1824. As Methodism spread throughout the locality, new chapels were erected in the villages of Braunston- 1798, West Haddon 1810 (re-erected 1847), Weedon 1811, Norton 1818, Hellidon 1820, Watford 1842, Welton 1858 and Charwelton 1887. These chapels joined the Rugby Circuit in 1806, to become the Daventry and Rugby Circuit which continued until 1860, when Rugby and some villages broke away to form a separate Rugby Circuit, the remainder forming the Daventry Circuit. This circuit consisted of chapels at Braunston, Charwelton, Daventry, Flecknoe (Warwickshire), West Haddon, Hellidon, Norton, Priors Marston (Warwickshire), Watford, Weedon, Welton and Willoughby (Warwick­ shire) . In 1931 the chapel at West Haddon was sold. This was followed by the closure of Charwelton in 1932 and later Welton 1950, Flecknoe, Hellidon and Watford 1966, Weedon 1970 and Priors Marston 1973. The four chapels still left in the Daventry Circuit amal­ gamated with the larger Rugby Circuit in 1976 to form the Daventry and Rugby Circuit.

  • The Parish of Flecknoe
    PRIEST-IN-CHARGE (SELF-SUPPORTING OR HOUSE FOR DUTY) LEAM VALLEY BENEFICE St Marks, Flecknoe St Peters, Grandborough All Saints, Leamington Hastings (with Church of the Good Shepherd, Broadwell) St Nicholas, Willoughby PARISH PROFILE Page 1 of 26 BISHOP’S INTRODUCTION ‘Well done, good and faithful servant!’ (Matt 25:21) – words of Jesus that come to mind when I think of the Leam Valley Benefice, and the many people who have served the Lord and the life of the Church in their villages with great dedication and imagination. They are, indeed, good and faithful servants of Christ! I’m also reminded of another saying – ‘Tangerines are not small oranges’ – that I’ve heard used by people when talking about the differences between urban and rural ministry, alluding to the unhelpful tendency of applying urban or sub-urban methods to a rural context, or the unrealistic hope that small rural villages could one day have regular congregations as large as some of those in cities. Well…… tangerines are not small oranges, and God deals with the particularities of different communities in liberating and gracious ways. You’ll notice in the Person Specification that it says, ‘We would welcome applications from Spirit-filled candidates who understand and value rural life and ‘the small’. In other words, we would welcome applications from priests who like tangerines (!) and who can see the great opportunities of ministry in this sort of setting. As I say, the four parishes have not simply been faithful but also imaginative. They’ve shown impressive creativity, even ingenuity, in their mission and ministry, adapting to local circumstances, seeking ways to make worship accessible.
