South Lawn is a stunning country home perfectly positioned on the edge of this highly sought-after village. Meticulously refurbished by the current owners, the property offers an exceptional finish throughout.

The entrance hall provides access to the principal reception rooms, including a dual-aspect drawing room featuring a fireplace and double doors opening onto the rear garden. A separate dining room and sitting room offer ample space for family living, while a beautiful orangery overlooks the formal gardens and expansive grounds beyond. The kitchen/breakfast room serves as the heart of the home, complete with a practical pantry. Additionally, a home study, boot room, and cloakroom complete the versatile ground floor accommodation.

On the first floor, the principal bedroom suite features a luxurious bathroom and dressing room, accompanied by three further bedrooms and a well-appointed separate shower room.

The impressive annexe, The Stables, includes a spacious open-plan entertainment and games room, featuring bifold doors that open onto the rear garden, with steps leading down to a stylish bar area. The Stables has two double bedrooms, a shower room, a utility room, and a cloakroom.

The gardens and grounds are stunning. The property is approached via a quiet lane which leads to a block-paved driveway at the front. Steps and a pathway lead to the front entrance, flanked on either side by lawn. The rear courtyard is gated and also block paved, with a second gate leading to the garaging and additional parking for several cars. A further outbuilding provides useful storage.

The South Lawn, from which the property takes its name, occupies an elevated position wrapping around the southwest façades of the property, offering a wonderful spot to sit and enjoy the stunning views.

The formal gardens feature a variety of well-placed patio areas, allowing one to follow the sun throughout the day—ideal spaces for outdoor dining and entertaining, with a well-positioned fire pit to provide comfort and warmth during the autumn and winter evenings. A great range of mature herbaceous shrub beds, lavender borders, and specimen trees complement the formal gardens beautifully. Steps lead down from the South Lawn to the first of several fields, which also provide access to the beautiful lake—another peaceful spot to enjoy.

With several further paddocks, it is clear the property lends itself well to those with an equestrian interest.

South Lawn is beautifully positioned within easy reach of the varied amenities offered by Lapworth, Dorridge, and Knowle.
