Built in 1956 on the site of a former dwelling, Willowbrook House is an attractive detached brick-built house under a tiled roof with cast iron guttering and downspouts, situated in an enviable position.

The property was constructed to a high standard using the very best of the position to enjoy maximum sunshine and the views. The property has been upgraded, fitted and decorated in a contemporary style, with upvc double glazed windows and garden doors.

An ample open plan kitchen/breakfast/family space at the heart of the house with a modern fitted kitchen, black granite tops, integrated appliances, an island unit with breakfast bar, and windows to front and rear. Ceramic tiled floor. The accommodation is enhanced by fine timber case leaded windows with brass furniture, coved cornicing, moulded skirtings and architraves to principal rooms.

The ground floor internal doors have bevel-edged glazed panes. Principal rooms radiate off the reception hall. Fine drawing room with raised recessed contemporary-style fire. The garden room has a tiled floor, leaded double-glazed windows and French doors facing south and east, catching the very best of the sun. From the kitchen, a door leads to the informal part of the house with a study with a door to the outside, a utility room with plumbing for the washing machine and dryer and an oil-fired boiler. The sitting room leads to a double-glazed conservatory, which takes full advantage of the delightful gardens with fan and French doors to the patio. An integral double garage has two up-and-over doors and a freezer room beyond.

A staircase in the reception hall with carved bannisters and hardwood handrail rises to a landing, off which is the principal bedroom with fitted furniture, beautiful views, French doors to a large balcony with paved floor and wrought iron balustrade and en suite bathroom with separate shower. Further double bedroom three and family bathroom. A study area opens to a further shower room and passageway to bedroom four with a built-in wardrobe and vaulted double bedroom two with windows to the front and rear and fitted wardrobes.

The gardens surrounding Willowbrook House are a delight. Approached by a tarmacadam drive and parking area with an ornate wrought iron gate, the drive has lawns to either side with mature trees and shrubs and dry stone wall-faced retaining walls. The house is adorned with creeper, wisteria, and honeysuckle to the rear. There is a wrought iron park railing and an evergreen hedge to the road frontage. The garden is bounded on two sides by a clipped laurel hedge with fencing behind. The rear garden incorporates expansive lawns and shrubs, herbaceous and bulb borders, and a paved patio. Mature trees include evergreens, spruce, ash, larch, cedar, pine, lilac and beech. Behind a beech hedge are mature fruit trees and a vegetable garden with a greenhouse. Secure mower garage and garden stores.

The garden flows into a paddock with a pond with an illuminated fountain and a sitting area, which forms the focal point of the views down the garden. An adjoining byway gives excellent access to rides and walks over the surrounding countryside.


Willowbrook House is situated in open countryside between the villages of Preston Bagot and Lowsonford. Lowsonford is a sought-after village with a parish church and public house. The nearby village of Claverdon has a primary school, community store, doctors surgery, fine parish church, public houses and, nearby, The Ardencote Country Club with full leisure facilities.

The area is excellently located for access to Birmingham and the rail and motorway network, including the M40, M42, M5, M6 and M1 and the National Exhibition Centre.

Henley-in-Arden, about 3 miles away, is an attractive market town with a good range of shopping and recreational facilities, including doctors and veterinary surgeries, restaurants and shops.

Stratford-upon-Avon is famous for its theatres and Shakespearean heritage and is readily accessible, as are Warwick and Leamington Spa, all of which have an excellent range of recreational and shopping facilities.

Schools in the area include a range of state, private and grammar schools to suit most requirements, including Warwick Prep and Public School and Kings High School for Girls in Warwick, The Croft Prep School near Stratford-upon-Avon, Stratford-upon-Avon and Alcester grammar schools, Bilton Grange Prep School, Rugby and Princethorpe Public Schools at Rugby, Kingsley School for Girls and Arnold Lodge School in Leamington Spa.

There are a number of golf courses in the area, including Ardencote, Stratford-upon-Avon and Leek Wootton. Racing is at Stratford-upon-Avon and Warwick.

The Cotswolds lie a short distance to the south.

Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
