Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
Stunning views, modernised and highly versatile accommodation all set within well tended gardens and grounds just shy of 2 acres.

Views to take your breath away... Accommodation that works around your needs.

The views to the rear of this magnificent home are akin to having your very own artist painting a new landscape scene for you each morning. Very subtle changes happen day to day and against the varying colours of the sky and the change in the seasons it is an enticing feature that makes this home very special.

Whilst the surrounds of greenbelt countryside offer calm and tranquillity within a short drive you can be in the thriving, historic High Street of Henley in Arden or jumping on the M40 motorway connecting with the M42 and M5 motorways.

Neighbours are nearby, but not within immediate eyesight, and the predominately laid to lawn gardens with paddocks at each end which grab most of the daily sunshine (when it's on offer) and enjoy differing views over the neighbouring greenbelt farmland, woodland and rolling countryside hills beyond.

The Sellers comment that the abundance of wildlife passing by is addictive to watch, especially the deer and low flying buzzards. And yet, within half an hour's drive you can be in the centres of Solihull, Stratford upon Avon and Redditch as well as Birmingham Airport and International Station. Rail connections via Henley in Arden Station (B'ham to Worcester line) or Lapworth Station (Birmingham to London Marylebone line) also lie nearby.

The house and gardens have undertaken significant refurbishment, giving comfort to any incoming Buyer(s). Such works include, significant replacement of the wiring, new boiler and LPG tank, new windows, new entrance gate and driveway re-surface, overhaul of the roof, together with the garden room extension, refitted bathroom suites and modernisation throughout.

At any given moment we found ourselves being drawn to the views to the rear. Such is the clever design of the accommodation all but 2 of the rooms enjoy the outlook.

All of the rooms are well proportioned and neutrally presented. The breakfast bar kitchen commands a triple aspect view to the front, rear and side elevations, afford a full complement of bespoke base, drawers and wall units set under wood and granite worktops and offer built in appliances together with the feature AGA. A small utility / laundry leads off.

The Living Room area is impressive, again enjoying a triple aspect view, the best of which is surely from the large window seat to rear. There is a feature inglenook fireplace, ample space for sofas and a 12 seater dining table.

The Garden room was a recent addition to the ground floor accommodation and offers a highly versatile space, bathed in natural light from the windows and French doors to the surround and sky lantern above. Leading off from the welcoming porch and reception hallway, with Guest WC, it certainly makes a statement as you enter.

Finally, on the ground floor is a stunning principal bedroom with built in wardrobes, newly installed ensuite and stairs up to a dressing / hobby room. Complete with a picture window over the patio area and underflooring heating.

From the main landing lie 3 double bedrooms, sharing the use of two refitted bathroom suites.

A detached double garage and large store stand in the gardens and grounds which extend to just shy of 2 acres in all. The gated entrance has intercom system and a sweeping driveway down to ample parking.

The gardens have enclosed paddocks to each end and make full use of the wonderful views beyond. Perfect for those seeking escapism without the worry of isolation.

Places of interest

    Kingsman offers a bespoke Estate Agency service to those seeking a more personable experience when buying or selling a property. We deliberately keep our available stock levels low to ensure we can deliver a ‘high level’ service to you, unlikely to be provided by a conventional ‘High Street’ or increasing number of low cost ‘Online’ agents. How are we different? We are always working – often when you’re not, which means we will happily receive and respond to calls well beyond the normal 9 to 5, Monday to Saturday slots offered by your standard agents. We are able to keep our fees highly competitive by avoiding High Street premises which in our opinion are no longer necessary to provide a full level service. We are however able to maintain a High Street presence by displaying properties in coffee shop / hairdresser windows throughout the region, which in our opinion achieve a greater level of foot flow on a daily basis than any high street agent. Equally, we no longer see the benefit of page after page of properties in the paper, the internet is perfectly placed for buyers to peruse properties suitable to their price range, location and style rather than the pot luck of the papers – which also tend to be very hit and miss with distribution. We do however place insertions into Lifestyle magazines which get a far more regional coverage and offer a greater print quality. Finally, we have the experience to deal with properties at any end of the pricing scale and not only provide the most suitable method of sale to do so, but deliver our service in a manner which aims to compliment our clients’ ambitions through transparent and ‘jargon free’ communication.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on October 23, 2023

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). 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
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services

    Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on October 4, 2015 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
