Mill Lane, Little Shrewley, CV35

The house underwent a huge renovation and extension in 2010, and with the vision of renowned architect Simon Hayward the house was transformed into a striking contemporary home. Plenty of thought has gone into taking full advantage of the views over the south facing garden and beyond, through the varied bi-folding doors and triple glazed windows around the house.
Thanks to the superior quality of materials used in construction and renovation, the house has withstood the test of time and remains in excellent condition throughout. The entrance hallway has oak floors and staircase, as does the dining room and breakfast room, whilst the kitchen, sitting room and family room all benefit from large slab slate floors. The kitchen has a large Corian topped island unit with integrated induction hobs, a breakfast bar, ceiling mounted speaker system, Miele appliances including a steam oven, two convection ovens, a warming drawer, and a dishwasher. The connected sitting room has a Morso log burner set in a bespoke Ashlar stone chimney breast and the Breakfast room has bi-fold doors onto the decked terrace. The family room has a double height ceiling at one end, geometric shaped windows and a galleried study above, accessed via the bespoke stone spiral staircase. A further Morso log burner sits under the dramatic angular recess and curved walls. Bi-folding doors lead out onto the garden terrace, with the matching slate slabs providing a seamless transition. Upstairs, there are five double bedrooms, two of which have en-suites, including the principle bedroom. This wonderful bedroom has views out onto the garden via a Juliet balcony and the en-suite bathroom has a Kirkstone slate floor and walls. It is possible to access the study from here, creating a dressing room with an added shower room if required.

Outside

The triangular shaped plot has the pretty front garden at the tip, and as it widens gives way to the gravel driveway, accessed from the road via electric gates. The driveway wraps round the side of the house where it greets the large double garage, with an electric up and over sliding door, offering plenty of storage, a convenient home gym and log store to the rear. The stunning south facing rear garden is surrounded by mature trees and divided by hedgerows, behind one of which is an established orchard. There are two paddocks – one small paddock to the side of the orchard which can be accessed by a gate off Mill Lane and a second large paddock which sits at the far end of the plot, stretching all the way down to Croft Lane, accessed by field gates from both the orchard and small paddock.
