Castle Lane, Warwick

Dating back to 1482 and once part of the adjoining property, this charming Grade II listed home gained its current form around 1806. With a fascinating history and period character throughout, it has served many roles over the centuries and now offers a stylish, welcoming family home. Set on the corner of Castle Street and Castle Lane, the property enjoys views of Warwick Castle and retains many original features. The current owners have significantly improved and enhanced the home over recent years, blending modern comfort with historic charm.
Accommodation spans four floors, from the basement sitting room/utility to the top-floor bedrooms, and includes an entrance vestibule, sitting room, dining room, cloakroom, and utility/kitchenette on the ground floor. There are two bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor, with two additional bedrooms on the top floor.
Outside, a small enclosed courtyard provides a sunny private retreat. Ideally situated just outside the castle walls in the heart of Warwick, properties of this character and location are rarely available — early viewing is highly recommended.
