Flecknoe Farm was built in 1994 to provide attractive family accommodation with large rooms and takes full advantage of the stunning location and views. The owners have extensively upgraded the property with a Fraser James fitted kitchen and utility room, a modern boiler, and Roper Rhodes bathroom ware and fitted cabinets. Double-glazed timber windows and external doors were replaced in 2008. Internally, there are attractive oak-panelled doors.

A large reception hall has a coat cupboard, oak floor, and staircase with turned spindle bannisters and hardwood handrails. Generous downstairs cloakroom, dual aspect study and the dining room opening to a large drawing room, with a brick inglenook fireplace with wood burner and two pairs of French doors opening to the garden. The kitchen/breakfast family room is 30 feet long with an extensive range of kitchen cabinets, a matching dresser and an island unit with granite tops and integrated appliances, including an American-style large fridge/freezer and a Heritage dual fuel oil and electric, traditionally styled Range oven and hobs, Limestone tiled flooring to the kitchen and utility room, which is also fitted with Fraser James cabinets with concealed space for washing machine and dryer, back door and handy walk-in store.

Off a large gallery landing with space for sofas or a library, the accommodation provides five double bedrooms with recently installed en suite bathrooms or shower rooms and fitted wardrobes in four bedrooms. The principal bedroom is generously proportioned, with extensive wardrobes, a lovely covered timber balcony and exceptional views to open countryside beyond. There is an ample insulated and boarded loft space.

The planning permission (Ref R23/0647 /FUL) granted by Rugby Borough Council on 4 September 2023 provides permission to add a large orangery off the kitchen/breakfast room, with doors to the garden and roof lantern for lots of light and allows for an additional family room/reception room.

The permission also allows for a substantial extension to the side of the existing dwelling, ideally suited to extended or three-generation family living. The annexe has three en suite bedrooms, and to the ground floor, a hall, kitchen/dining room, snug/ separate dining room, utility room. cloakroom, study and sitting room with bay window and doors to the garden. Equally, this extension could provide additional accommodation to the existing house and would bring the extent of the accommodation to over 6,100 square feet.

To the front of the house is an ample gravelled parking and turning area, well screened by trees and shrubs, an electric car charging point, with an oak framed timber clad garage building providing two open fronted garages, further garage with double wooden doors and wood store.

There is a large paved patio to the house's south and east side, with a lovely expansive dog-fenced lawned garden with bulb, herbaceous and shrub beds and mature trees, including cedar, birch and beech. A timber pergola is adorned with a grapevine and climbing shrubs to the house's walls.

The stable yard adjoins the garden and has a separate vehicular entrance and hard-standing lorry parking with power, water, and sensor lighting. Post and rail fenced concrete stable yard with six wooden stables, including a foaling box, washroom with WC and basin and water heater for washing down, feed room/fodder store and tack room. The stables have rubber matting, automatic drinkers and hay bars. 40x 20 metre Charles Britton manege. By the manege are post and rail paddocks with water troughs. A track along the property's north boundary gives access to the mature woodland and two beautiful lakes, which have been used for coarse fishing and attract a wide range of waterfowl, and two grass paddocks, one used as a jumping paddock. A further lake has been created from part of a disused railway line, with a track and an additional strip of land beyond.

    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

    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
