Contemporary additions include underfloor heating to the ground floors, replacement kitchens and bathrooms, CAT5e cabling, double Xeon filled conservation approved double glazing to certain rooms, solar panels with feed-in tariff, one electric 7kw vehicle charging point and modern heating systems.

This combination of historic character, modern convenience, flexible accommodation and a desirable village setting, creates a rare opportunity in one of Warwickshire's most sought-after locations.

Thornette cottage centres around a welcoming dining/sitting room featuring an attractive fireplace with a multi-fuel stove. A particularly distinctive feature of this space is a series of bespoke built-in display shelves, thoughtfully designed to showcase and catalogue archaeological artefacts discovered during the property's renovation, with useful storage cupboards below.

Beyond, a superb kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with an extensive range of cabinetry, complemented by Mirostone work surfaces and a selection of integrated Bosch and Hotpoint appliances, including a dishwasher, induction hob with contemporary extractor hood, microwave, electric oven, tall fridge and separate tall freezer. Adjacent to the kitchen, the utility room and cloakroom provide practical ancillary space, complete with a solid wood worktop and Belfast sink.

A particularly impressive dual-aspect living room spans the rear of the property, enjoying direct access to the terrace and gardens, creating an excellent space for both everyday living and entertaining. A turning solid wood staircase rises to the first floor accommodation, comprising three bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from an en suite shower room, while the two further bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom with a shower over the bath. In addition, a substantial boarded eaves room provides valuable supplementary storage space.

Outside, the property is set within beautifully landscaped garden. Predominantly laid to lawn, the gardens are interspersed with paved pathways, while a substantial south-facing terrace provides an exceptional setting for al fresco dining and outdoor entertaining.
Access is gained via a traditional five-bar gate opening onto a gravel driveway, a oak-framed single carport that incorporates solar panels and one electric 7kW vehicle charging point.

A particular feature of the property is the detached timber summer house/garden office with adjoining garden store. Benefitting from power and a covered terrace, this highly versatile space offers excellent potential for home working, hobbies or leisure use.
