Outside

Approached via a pair of solid oak electric gates opening onto a granite block driveway that leads to a garage with electric up and over door. There is also a solid oak side gate that provides pedestrian access. Both gates are activated from within the house via an electronic camera and intercom security system.

The front garden is laid to lawn and is enclosed by a wall, yew hedge and fence offering security and privacy. Its landscaped design offers raised flower beds, dwarf hedge borders, pergola and a feature pond.

The main garden is to the rear of the house and incorporates a sound system, mood lighting, herbaceous borders, mature trees, shrubs, pond, greenhouse and shed. The split level landscaped design creates an elevated sun terrace position at the rear of the property with a spectacular view out on to the rear garden.

Watering of both the front and the rear gardens are controlled by a fully automatic irrigation system. Underground water storage tanks are fed by the rain water run-off from the house and also water pumped automatically from the well, both of which are located in the rear garden.

Seller Insight Having purchased the land in 2002 the owner demolished the

1950’s bungalow on the site in order to craft and build this very unique home, designed and styled to create the perfect living environment.

Surrounded by glorious views of the Welcombe Hills and open countryside, the house is breathtaking in both its quality and location. The magnificent hand-crafted oak staircase, with its swept handrail leading to the galleried landing overlooking the dining-hall below is the centrepiece around which the house has been designed. The oak theme is continued throughout, with the oak panelled study being a further stunning feature, perfect for quiet reading, working, or contemplation.

Throughout the house touch screens direct lighting, music, television, radio and electric curtains/blinds, and allow the owner to control the mood of the entire property from anywhere within the house. This is particularly useful when entertaining, an area in which this property truly excels. The grounds provide two levels which can be used to entertain guests and family. The upper terrace provides the perfect space for hosting al fresco dinner parties and includes a built in barbeque. On the lower level you also have access to the indoor swimming pool and spa with the pool hall being enclosed by a stunning copper roof.

The inside of the property is extremely versatile, with a spacious yet comfortable and inviting interior allowing the home to be enjoyed either alone or with the family. One of the bedrooms had been originally planned as a home office, and so the property is perfectly adaptable for working from home if required. This is further supported by the excellent transport links from Alveston, which is within ten minutes of the M40 and the centre of the motorway network, allowing quick and easy access to the rest of the country, and in particular the nearby cities of Coventry and Birmingham. Warwick Parkway Station, (Marylebone one hour 30 minutes), is only 15 minutes away.

The house also benefits from being close to the cultural centre of Stratford-upon-Avon, birthplace of world-renowned playwright William Shakespeare. Stratford-upon-Avon provides an impressive variety of high street and independent boutique shops, theatres and restaurants. On a summers day there is nothing more quintessentially British than taking a stroll along the banks of the river Avon as the canal boats cruise gently by.

Positioned in the heart of England the county is famous for being the birthplace of William Shakespeare. There are no cities in Warwickshire since both Coventry and Birmingham were incorporated into the West Midlands County in 1974 and are now metropolitan authorities in themselves. Warwickshire hosts several key towns including Warwick, Leamington Spa, Kenilworth, Henley In Arden and Rugby to name a few. The northern tip of the county is only three miles from the Derbyshire border. An average-sized English county covering an area of almost 2,000 km2, it runs some 60 miles north to south.
