Seller Insight Situated in a sought after location just a twenty minute walk from Leamington Spa town center is this large and extremely well-appointed executive home that was beautifully designed and built in 2004. “For me, the location of the house was a huge selling point when I came across it nine years ago,” says Barry. “It sits well back from Lillington Road so feels nicely tucked away and very private, but I have everything I might want or need practically on the doorstep. It takes just five minutes to drive into the centre of town where I can access just about anything, and if I head off in the other direction, in no time at all I’m out in the countryside. It’s definitely one of those places that offers the best of both worlds.” “The house was only six years old when I bought it, and it was built to a very high standard so there was nothing that needed to be done. However, during my time here I’ve enhanced it quite a lot. Just last year I had it refurbished from top to bottom; two of the en suites were revamped, I had plantation shutters added to all of the front windows so there’s no need for curtains. I’ve also had a Sonos sound system installed, as well as a high-tech security system, but I suppose the biggest change came with the addition of a really beautiful and very large orangery, which was added back in 2015. The kitchen/diner opens straight into it so I now have this fantastic open-plan space with bi-folding doors leading straight out into the garden. It’s a real showstopper.” “The orangery was a large extension, but I still have a lovely big garden, which is very private and has been designed to be very family-friendly,” continues Barry. “The bi folds lead out onto a huge wrap-around patio terrace, and from there steps lead up to a large lawn. I wanted to create a bit of interest so in one corner I’ve added a pretty summerhouse and in the other is a coy pond with a lovely water feature. The garden as a whole is just gorgeous and it’s a brilliant space for summer entertaining. When we push back the bi-folding doors the connection between inside and out is so seamless that the garden almost becomes another huge room.” “The orangery is definitely my favourite part of the house. It could be used as a dining area or another sitting room, but I use it as a games room. I have my full-size snooker table in there, a card table and my jukebox so it’s a great party space.” “This is a superb spot because you have access to absolutely everything. Leamington Spa, Coventry and Warwick are all within easy reach; there are some great schools and sports facilities in the local area so it’s ideal for families, and we have mile upon mile of countryside within striking distance. It’s a location that would be hard to better.” “The house was built as part of a pair, both of which are set well back from the road behind electric gates so it’s very safe and secure. There’s ample parking to the front and we also have a double garage, which is obviously ideal for extra parking but also great if you need extra storage space.” “I simply don’t need so much space anymore so I’ve decided that it’s the right time to downsize. It’s going to be a real wrench to leave, though,” says Barry. “I’ll miss the location, the space both inside and out, but most of all I’ll miss the fact that it’s such a sociable house. It really lends itself to big get-togethers with family and friends; we’ve had some great times here.”* * These comments are the personal views of the current owner and are included as an insight into life at the property.
