About this property

  • Dating in part from the 1700s, Warren House was extended in the Victorian era to form a pair of cottages; in 2006 it was acquired by the current owners, who significantly reconfigured the property to create a single house which is ideally suited to family life, with neutral décor, light oak flooring, and spacious, well-proportioned accommodation arranged over two floors.

    The property has a heavy oak door, which opens to the reception hall, an impressive entrance that the current owners use as a cinema. At the front of the house is a versatile room, which can be used as a gym, dining room or playroom as required.

    The 22' principal reception room is at the rear of the house, with a wood burning stove and French doors to the rear garden. The open plan kitchen/dining/family room is a large triple aspect room with French doors to the rear terrace; the kitchen is beautifully fitted with granite worktops and a breakfast bar, white cabinetry, and integrated appliances including a LPG range cooker and a dishwasher. There is a well-equipped utility room to the side, with a ground floor shower room beyond.

    The turned staircase leads up to the first floor; the principal suite occupies the north east corner and comprises a bedroom, dressing room with fitted wardrobes, and a luxury en suite bathroom with a free standing bath with a TV and a walk-in shower. There are four further bedrooms (one en suite) and a family bathroom.

    The house is approached via electronically controlled wrought iron gates opening to a long willow lined driveway leading past the front lane, and opening up to a gravelled drive providing parking for multiple vehicles ahead of the house and the detached double garage. There is a wide sandstone terrace at the rear, accessed from the kitchen/dining/family room and the drawing room, and creating an excellent spot for entertaining or relaxing, whilst enjoying the outside space. The remainders of the gardens are laid to lawn, and the plot extends in all to about 0.8 of an acre.

    Agent's Notes:
    1. There is an improvement indicator against the council tax band.
    2. The hot tub and garden sheds are not included, they may be available by negotiation.

I love how Warren House blends centuries of character with thoughtful modern updates - there's something special about living in a place that carries history yet feels completely livable. The light oak flooring and neutral décor give it a warm, inviting feel that's perfect for a family home.
