4 bed detached house for sale

Birches Lane, Kenilworth, Warwickshire CV8

Located on one of Kenilworth's most desirable roads, this impressive four-bedroom detached family home has been extensively updated throughout the current owner's occupation of over 30 years. Inside you will find four bedrooms with ample space for a king-sized bed in each, as well as a huge lounge spanning almost 7.5m (24ft). The gardens mirror the quality of the house, with a large mature garden setting this home apart.

Set back from the roadside by a block-paved drive with ample space for half a dozen cars and surrounded by mature flower borders and shrubbery, you can instantly recognise that this home has been well looked after.

As you step inside the brick-built porch, French doors open in from the driveway, with a secondary set of French doors into the spacious hallway. To the right of the hallway and spanning the depth of the house is the 24ft long lounge, a fantastic area for relaxing or entertaining guests. The real standout feature of this room is the over 3m-wide chimney nook, lit by windows on either, framed by a wooden beam and setting the gas-fired imitation wood-burning stove as the focus of the room. To either side of the chimney breast within the nook, glass shelving has been carefully installed and wiring for entertainment equipment neatly tucked away. The living room has been neutrally decorated in white, allowing for a bright room and perfect for adding your own touch to.

To the rear of the lounge lies the garden room, having had the original roof replaced by a tiled and insulated roof. Internally, the ceiling has been plastered and features LED downlighting - making this a usable room overlooking the stunning garden all year round. With French doors opening onto the patio, you can relax in comfort while letting air flow through the house.

Adjacent to the lounge and accessible via double doors either from the lounge or the hallway is the dining room. Overlooking the garden, this cosy room could be used as an additional living room or play room for a young family.

Proceeding back into the hallway, just past the large pantry cupboard is the kitchen. Carefully designed with granite worktops and solid wooden units, the kitchen boasts two electric ovens (one also functioning as a microwave) as well as an electric induction hob. The sink, with draining board integrated into the granite worktop features a half-sink and a Quooker hot water tap. Tucked away inside the kitchen units you will find a dishwasher as well as a fridge.

To the end of the hallway is the utility room, with built-in cupboard space, a stainless steel sink and plumbing for the washing machine. The boiler is also located in the utility room, providing hot water to the storage tank located in the first floor landing cupboard.

A UPVC door at the end of the hallway allows access to the side of the house, including the rear garden and the side door of the garage.

Back in the house, a downstairs WC is a welcome feature, as is the understairs cupboard.

To the front of the house, one half of the garage has been converted into a large study, a room which could function as an additional reception room, or bedroom if required. The house still retains a full-sized single garage, with a longer than normal length at over 6m.

Heading up to the first floor, you will immediately notice the size of the landing, spanning over 7m from end-to-end and lit by a window as you reach the top of the stairs. To the left you will find a high quality fitted family shower room, with a large walk-in corner shower, sink and toilet. The white tiling on the walls is tastefully off-set by the wood-effect flooring.

To the other side of the landing is the cupboard containing the hot water storage tank, with this backing on to the ensuite adjoining the main bedroom. The ensuite itself is feature-packed with a waterfall bath, high-quality bathroom furniture and a separate shower cubicle. As with the family shower-room, the ensuite is tastefully finished with white tiling throughout and wood-effect flooring.

The bedroom to which the ensuite belongs boasts a view over the stunning rear garden, whilst accommodating a king-sized bed with ease. Built-in cupboards occupy one wall, providing ample space for clothing.

The second bedroom is almost as spacious as the first, again overlooking the rear garden and providing enough space for a king-sized without hampering space for other bedroom furniture.

To the far end of the landing is the smallest of the four bedrooms, although this room still has capacity for a king-sized bed. Decorated with Laura Ashley wallpaper, this bedroom overlooks the front of the house.

Next to this, the final bedroom also has views over the front, with the dormer window affording the room additional headroom. Built-in cupboard units have been thoughtfully installed to one end of the bedroom, while again a king-sized bed fits with ease.

A hidden development opportunity lies above the loft-hatch, with a fully boarded and plastered loft room, with dormer window spanning the side of the loft-space. This room itself is over 33sqm (355sq ft) and would provide an excellent executive suite (or even two additional bedrooms), should a staircase be installed (subject to building regulations). To the end of the loft-space, additional storage is available with another 10sqm of space behind double doors.

The whole property is heated by gas central heating, with the exception of the loft room which features two storage heaters.

To the rear of the house, the mature south-facing garden is exceptionally well-tended, with flowers, shrubbery and trees bordering the almost bowling-green flat lawn. To the rear of the garden, a wooden garden room and a wood-build greenhouse occupy each corner. Adjacent to the house, a spacious patio has room for a family garden table, while half way down the lawn, a separate patio is well-positioned for a smaller garden table to enjoy the sun throughout the day.

Birches Lane itself is located only a short distance from Kenilworth town centre with both Sainsbury's and Kenilworth Train Station being within half a mile. There is also easy access to the A46 and the wider road network, connecting you to Coventry, Warwick and beyond.

The house lies within the Thorns Infant School and Park Hill Junior School catchment areas, while Birches Lane itself leads on to Glasshouse Lane and Kenilworth Secondary School.
