Home Farm is a extended 19th century period farmhouse perfectly positioned in the Warwickshire village of Lighthorne. Tucked away from view, the generous property boasts 7 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms with plenty of scope to convert to a Guest house or Air B and B business. Traditionally constructed from brick and stone, this heritage farmhouse has been extended considerably, catapulting it into a family abode of epic proportions, or an Airbnb straight off the cover of a magazine. Home Farm has been sympathetically refurbished with materials that stay true to its original style and character. Inside, you’ll find a quality finish, classy fittings and period features, including solid oak beams. The courtyard driveway for multiple cars ensures parking is a breeze. There’s a recent new wing, which has added further to the capacious footprint and has resulted in an enviable total 3,666 sq ft home.
An enormous kitchen diner with dramatic vaulted ceiling connects the two parts of the farmhouse, and so lies at the very heart of this home. Boasting a large-format flagstone floor with tiles from Warwick Castle, you can just imagine the notable footsteps that have traversed across it over the last few centuries. It makes for a simply superb entertaining space. Appliances are integrated and there’s a large hob and range for that farmhouse breakfast. And a plethora of cream wooden cabinets, with contrasting worktops, store everything you could possibly need to whip up supper. As well as a great island where you can enjoy a casual catch-up over coffee, there’s space aplenty for even the largest of dining tables with friends and family gathered round.
A central, elevated log stove in the living room exudes warmth, whilst dual aspect windows allow natural light to flood in. There’s a lovely snug as well, which is warm and toasty, thanks to the oil fired central heating throughout Home Farm. Or you could opt to use this as a formal dining room – the choice is yours. The family bathroom is conveniently located just off the rear entrance hall whilst upstairs three double bedrooms, two of which feature en suite shower rooms, positively burst with character, incorporating a mix of original fireplaces and floors.
Feeling energetic? The significant extension, which recently provided an entirely new wing, boasts a fabulous home gym, whilst Scandi vibes flow effortlessly in the sauna. And there’s ample space for a games room, for the young and the young at heart. You’ll find four further double bedrooms, taking the total number to seven. All are equipped with modern, en suite shower rooms, whilst the studio room also features a luxurious bath and shower. From here, a spiral staircase leads to a mezzanine with a couple of good-sized storage rooms. The additional kitchen in the extension has a contemporary feel with dark grey cabinets, black splashbacks and grey worktops, and would be ideal for holiday accommodation, as this whole wing can be kept quite separate from the main farmhouse. As well as its clear Airbnb potential, Home Farm would also make a superb office space, subject to consent, or lifestyle business. Quite simply, it has versatility in spades. It’s also worth noting that the courtyard could be walled off, if desired, to create a beautiful walled garden. Channel your inner Arthur Parkinson here! There’s plenty of parking available at the front, on Old School Lane.
