A rare village opportunity: this stone-built dormer house sits on a huge plot of circa seven acres with full planning permission for an imposing contemporary 4,000 sq ft home and ample garaging (Planning Ref: 24/01447/FUL). The existing detached property provides about 1,656 sq ft of comfortable family accommodation across two floors, including a large living room, conservatory, kitchen/breakfast room, utility, and four/five bedrooms.
The plot brings significant scope — keep and renovate the charming cottage or build the approved contemporary replacement. The village location offers countryside peace with easy access to Warwick, Leamington Spa and Stratford-upon-Avon; the M40 is around 4 miles away. Local community amenities, a village pub, sports ground and good primary and secondary schools support family life.
Practical points to note: the house has oil-fired boiler and radiators, EPC band E, and dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s, so some modernisation and energy improvements are likely needed. There is ample driveway parking, outbuildings and a workshop, but prospective buyers should allow for renovation costs if retaining the existing house. Nearby area statistics indicate affluence but crime is reported above average; buyers should make their own enquiries.
