6 bedroom detached house

With planning permission for the erection of a detached dwelling to the grounds.



A former period farmhouse with secure gated access from Grove Lane. Thought to have origins in the 17th century, there is generous gravel parking as well as the detached triple garage, added in more recent years. The garden and rear have an enviable south westerly aspect, adding to the enjoyment of the indoor swimming pool and immediate gardens. All to approximately 6.6 acres, the property boasts open green views and an extremely private aspect.



For a buyer seeking further separate accommodation or future project, in November 2019 planning permission was granted for the erection of a detached dwelling. (Warwick District Council Ref: W/19/0423) Put into practice, this would provide a 3 bedroom detached 2 storey property with 2 reception rooms plus kitchen, having its own private entrance and address. Plans are available from the sales agent by request. Elevations and layout are shown to the images within these details.



The main house offers just over 6000 square feet of accommodation, including the family kitchen with immediate garden access, cosy snug with wood burner, formal dining room with enclosed wine store, separate living room and garden room. The main entrance hall creates an impressive welcome and leads further to the games room, guest cloakroom and storeroom.



To the first floor are five excellent bedrooms plus optional 6th / study, two of which have ensuites. The principal bedroom is vast in size and enjoys green views to the garden from multiple aspects plus a balcony with French doors overlooking the rear garden. To the main bedroom is a large walk in wardrobe and superb ensuite with separate shower and stand-alone bath. The large family bathroom is located on the split level to one of 3 staircases to the house.



There is a large loft space to the property accessed via a separate staircase which provides an abundance of 'in house' storage. Further storage is by way of the detached outbuilding, which itself measures to some 35" in length and has 2 floors of store space.



Should extra accommodation be required, the adjacent annexe offers the perfect solution for extended family or guests - on 2 storeys it offers a kitchen living space and 1st floor bedroom with wardrobes and terrace access to the outside and external staircase to the ground floor. The annexe lies to its own address at Old Warwick Road, Lapworth, B94 6BA with separate front gated entrance.



The formal gardens and paddock land offer unencumbered green views to the rear of the property whilst providing a magnificent backdrop to the indoor swimming pool - which enjoys a retractable roof for sunnier days and has been meticulously looked after including the fitting of a modern shower room and sauna.



Location



Lapworth, a wonderful Warwickshire village on the outskirts of Solihull, approximately 13 miles from Birmingham, has established itself as one of the area's most aspirational villages. Abundant country walks are favoured amongst locals throughout all seasons, being on the junction of the Stratford Canal and the Grand Union Canal.



There is no shortage of excellent dining options including The Boot Inn, The Navigation and The Punchbowl to name a few, all with outside dining, and a mix of cosy yet modern bars and restaurants. National Trust at Packwood House offers a most idyllic setting and a trip to see its famous Yew Garden is most recommended.



Education is offered at both pre-school and Junior level serving pupils from ages 2 to 11 years. The centre also offers a village store, Doctors, wine merchants, car garage and train station with lines running by both Chiltern Railway and West Midlands Railway Services. The thriving village hall is keen in promoting community activities.
