5 bed town house to rent

High Street, Warwick, Warwickshire CV34

This exceptional Grade II Listed townhouse, believed to date back to the 16th century, occupies a prime position in the heart of Warwick’s historic High Street. Beautifully restored, the property blends period character with versatile modern living, extending to over 4,000 sq. Ft and including a self-contained annexe, walled garden, sun terrace, garage, and off-road parking.

Rich in heritage, the home retains a wealth of original features including high coved ceilings, period fireplaces, sash windows, and exposed beams, all carefully preserved and enhanced to create a warm and elegant family home. The flexibility of the accommodation makes it ideally suited to multi-generational living, guest accommodation, or income potential.

Ground Floor

The property is approached via steps leading to a wooden and part-glazed front door opening into a vestibule and a spacious entrance hall, finished with limestone flooring, and providing access to the principal reception rooms and cellar. To the front, the sitting room is a beautifully proportioned space featuring original sash windows with secondary glazing and an open fireplace with marble surround, creating a refined yet comfortable setting.

The drawing room is equally impressive, designed for entertaining and enhanced by a striking floor-to-ceiling bay window that fills the room with natural light while enjoying views across the garden.

The dining room is centrally positioned within the home, linking effortlessly to the kitchen/breakfast room at the rear and creating a natural flow for both everyday living and entertaining. A cleverly concealed bookcase reveals a hidden staircase to the first-floor annexe, offering internal access while allowing the space to remain fully self-contained if desired.

The bespoke kitchen has been crafted by a local specialist and is fitted with high-quality cabinetry, black granite worktops, and a range of integrated Miele appliances, including double ovens, microwave, and induction hob, alongside integrated fridge/freezer.

Adjoining the kitchen is a versatile family room featuring double doors opening directly onto the garden, along with a kitchenette and bathroom. This flexible space could be adapted to incorporate a utility area alongside an additional reception room or home office, or retained in its current form as semi-independent living accommodation.

Lower Ground Floor

A cellar provides useful additional storage and practical space, supporting the day-to-day running of the home.

First Floor

The first floor is arranged around a generous landing and provides two well-proportioned bedroom suites. The principal bedroom enjoys a front aspect and benefits from an adjoining dressing area with extensive fitted wardrobes, leading through to a well-appointed en-suite bathroom. A second double bedroom also benefits from built-in storage and its own en-suite, offering excellent guest or family accommodation.

Second Floor

The second floor offers three further double bedrooms, all full of character with exposed beams and elevated views across Warwick’s historic rooftops towards St Mary’s Church.

These bedrooms are served by a beautifully finished family shower room, providing a well-balanced upper floor ideal for family living.

Annexe

A key feature of the property is the self-contained one-bedroom annexe, which can be accessed internally from the main house or independently via steps from the garden. Comprising a kitchen, living area, and bathroom, this space offers complete flexibility, ideal for guests, independent living, home working, or as an income-generating opportunity.

Outside

The property enjoys a beautifully maintained walled garden, providing a private and peaceful retreat rarely found in such a central location. Thoughtfully landscaped, it offers the perfect setting for outdoor dining, entertaining, or quiet relaxation. The roof terrace is a particularly special feature, capturing sunlight throughout the day and offering an elevated space to unwind. To the rear, the property benefits from a tandem garage and off-road parking, an invaluable asset in this central Warwick location.
