3 bedroom detached house

Hillside is a beautiful property with abundant character, including leaded windows, exposed timber beams and brickwork.

One enters the house via the entrance hall with a solid oak door, stairs rising to the first floor with doors to the reception rooms and kitchen/breakfast room to the rear. A substantial dual-aspect drawing room has an attractive fireplace and exposed timbers. This room is opposite the dining room, with a dual aspect with exposed timbers and an open fireplace. A good-sized kitchen/breakfast room to the rear of the house has space for a table and seating, a range of units, exposed timbers, exposed brickwork and a dual oven Aga.

The first floor has a principal bedroom with a dressing room, fitted wardrobes and a vanity unit. There are two further double bedrooms and a family bathroom with a bath and a separate shower cubicle.

Hillside is accessed via a gated driveway, allowing parking for several cars. The annexe is accessed via a separate driveway, which is useful for housing extended family or guests but also lends itself well to producing an income via renting. The annexe comprises an open-plan kitchen, dining, and living room on the ground floor with two bedrooms and a shower room on the first floor.

To the rear of the main house is an outbuilding that provides several storage rooms and a utility.

The gardens and grounds are extensive. The formal gardens are well stocked and of a good size. They are mainly laid to lawn, with a gate giving access to the paddock, which ensures the property works well for the equestrian purchaser.

Hillside is situated in a secluded position in the hamlet of High Cross, situated between Lowsonford and Shrewley. The larger villages of Lowsonford and Claverdon are close by. Claverdon is a popular Warwickshire village with amenities including a village hall, post office and stores, junior and infant schools and doctor's surgery. The property is well situated for access to the motorway network and railway stations at Hatton and Warwick Parkway, which have connections to the West Midlands employment centres and surrounding towns. There is an excellent range of schools in the area, including primary schools at Claverdon and Lapworth, Warwick Prep and Public schools, King's High School for Girls, and The Croft Prep School near Stratford upon Avon and Stratford grammar schools. With its theatres and Shakespearean heritage, Stratford-upon-Avon is the region's cultural centre. Several golf courses are local, including the Ardencote Manor Country Club at Claverdon with racing at Stratford-upon-Avon and Warwick. The Cotswolds lie a short distance to the south.
