Tucked behind its own secure gated entrance and surrounded by mature planting with open countryside views beyond, this exceptional detached home is a rare find, both in scale and in the thought that has gone into every corner of it. Originally built in the 1980s, the property has been almost entirely reimagined over the past decade and now offers circa 9,000 square feet of accommodation set within nearly two acres of private grounds.
The layout is cleverly zoned, with distinct wings flowing from a central hub, including a self-contained guest wing comprising two ensuite bedrooms, each with its own sitting room and dressing area. Throughout the main house, striking roof lanterns and expansive bi-fold doors flood the living spaces with natural light, giving the home a bright, welcoming feel from room to room.
The property features six-bedrooms, five of which enjoy their own ensuite bathrooms, plus an additional shower room, and three further cloakrooms are on hand for family and guests. While the majority of the accommodation sits at ground level, the loft space has been thoughtfully converted to house a private cinema/meeting room and a home office, both accessed from a grand entrance hallway.
The heart of the home is the open-plan living, dining and kitchen space, finished with Silestone worktops and tiled flooring, and fitted with duplicated integrated appliances for effortless entertaining. Bi-fold doors open onto south-west facing patios and gardens, while French doors lead through to a striking oval formal sitting room and on to the principal bedroom wing. A separate "working" wing offers an additional reception room, cloakroom, and a generously sized utility room/kitchen.
The principal suite is a particular highlight, its ensuite bathroom features his-and-hers basins, a jacuzzi bath, a steam shower cubicle, a sauna and a walk-through drench shower.
Outside, garaging accommodates three larger vehicles, alongside a separate gardener's workshop and wood store. The driveway extends well beyond the house itself, offering plenty of additional parking.
Many of this home's most impressive features aren't the ones you can see. Considerable investment has gone into making it as energy-efficient and self-sufficient as a property of this size can be, solar PV panels and a brand-new gas central heating system.
Set within a conservation area on the corner of Fieldgate Lane and Upper Spring Lane, this is one of Kenilworth's most sought-after addresses, rural in feel, yet just minutes from the town centre. Gated walkway access leads onto Fieldgate Lane, a quiet street lined with a lovely mix of period and individual homes, within easy walking distance of Kenilworth High Street.
Abbey Fields is circa five-minute walk away, alongside popular local favourites including The Cross, The Virgins & Castle, The Old Bakery and The Queen & Castle. The town's shops and amenities, including Waitrose, are around a 15–20 minute walk.
Families are well served by highly regarded schooling, including King Henry VIII School, Warwick School, Kings High, Kingsley School and Princethorpe College, alongside several Ofsted "Outstanding" primary schools nearby.
Commuters benefit from swift access to the A46 towards Leamington Spa, Warwick and Stratford-upon-Avon, and the M40 beyond. Birmingham International Airport is around 12 miles away (roughly 20 minutes by car), Solihull town centre 11 miles, and the University of Warwick just 3 miles.
