Description

LOOKING TO BUILD YOUR DREAM HOME IN AN IDYLLIC SETTING - THEN HERE IT IS?

ONCE IN A LIFETIME (SUBJECT TO PLANNING) OPPORTUNITY

Standing at the end of a "no through" lane you will find this pretty Cottage that has not come to the market for nearly 70 years. The Cottage enjoys a large totally private garden of about three quarters of an acre.

Lilac Cottage and established outbuildings combine to provide a total square footage of approx 3000 sq ft.

We envisage  that this total footprint will form the basis of a planning application to demolish all the buildings and re-site a new home in the garden.

There is planning permission to build a new property next door.

Existing access from the lane will lead to the new home wherever it is decided it should be built.

Lilac Cottage is perfectly habitable to use as a home whilst the replacement is being built (subject to approval as a planning condition)

Alternatively you may chose to extend & refurbish the Cottage.

Lilac Cottage currently comprises, 2 reception rooms & two bedrooms. Dining kitchen with Aga. Utility, shower room & two WC's.

In addition there is,

Brick workshop including full length lean too at the back (30' x 26')

Rendered second workshop with veranda (31' x 14')

Wood Store (12' 3" x 11' 2")

Garden Store (16' 5" x 9' 8")

Tack Room (9' x 6')

Total square footage approximately 3,500

Beyond this cottage planning permission has been granted for a new build detached family home.

Resting in the picturesque village of Preston Bagot, Lilac Cottage enjoys an idyllic setting surrounded by the unspoilt Warwickshire countryside. Renowned as one of the area's most desirable locations, the village offers a peaceful rural lifestyle with scenic canal-side walks and the popular Fleur De Lys pub.

The neighbouring villages of Claverdon and Lowsonford are both within easy reach, while the historic market town of Henley-in-Arden lies approximately two miles away, providing an excellent range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities. The county town of Warwick is around eight miles away and is well regarded for its outstanding schools, as well as Warwick Parkway railway station, which offers fast commuter services to London Marylebone via the Chiltern Line.

To the south, the world-famous town of Stratford-upon-Avon is approximately 7.5 miles away, offering an exceptional choice of cultural, leisure and tourist attractions, including the Royal Shakespeare Theatre, the River Avon and a vibrant selection of shops, restaurants and cafés. Beyond lies the rolling countryside of the Cotswolds, designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

For those travelling further afield, Birmingham International Airport is approximately a 30-minute drive away, providing an extensive choice of domestic, European and international destinations.

Occupying a wonderfully peaceful position amidst gently rolling countryside, Lilac Cottage presents a rare opportunity to enjoy quintessential Warwickshire living in an exceptionally tranquil and highly sought-after setting.
