In addition to the main residence, the detached swimming pool building located at the bottom of the garden currently featuring a kitchenette, shower room, sauna, and changing room—also has approved planning permission for demolition and replacement with a second four-bedroom dwelling, also to be addressed from The Shrubberies.
This unique offering combines generous accommodation with significant development potential, ideal for buyers looking to create a family compound, add value through construction, or secure long-term rental or resale opportunities.
The expansive courtyard driveway, with its central island feature, accommodates multiple vehicles and grants access to a substantial garage. The property’s layout is versatile, with potential for further development, as it has seen minimal extension over the years.

The property is conveniently linked to Leamington Spa, Kenilworth, and the University of Warwick, with easy access to the A46 and M40.
