Tamworth Road, Coventry

Set along the prestigious Tamworth Road in Keresley End, Oakleigh House is a truly exceptional detached family residence offering the perfect balance of space, comfort, and countryside tranquillity. Extending to an impressive 3,886 square feet and occupying a substantial 0.93-acre plot, this magnificent six-bedroom home enjoys sweeping views over open fields, providing a rare sense of peace and privacy within easy reach of Coventry city centre.

From the moment you arrive, Oakleigh House makes a lasting impression. The property is approached via a private driveway offering generous parking for multiple vehicles, framed by mature hedgerows that give a sense of grandeur and seclusion.

Stepping inside, a grand entrance hallway sets the tone for what’s to come — spacious, elegant, and designed for modern family living. To the front of the home sits a 30-foot main lounge, a beautifully bright and airy space with dual-aspect windows and plenty of room for both relaxing and entertaining. There is also a second lounge or formal dining room, ideal for hosting family gatherings or dinner parties, and a dedicated study, perfectly suited for home working.

The heart of the home is undoubtedly the stunning open-plan breakfast kitchen, fitted with quality integrated appliances and enjoying garden views through wide picture windows. This space flows effortlessly into the utility room, which also provides access to a convenient ground floor W/C. Completing the ground floor accommodation is a partially converted garage, offering tremendous versatility — whether as a gym, playroom, or workshop, it can easily be adapted to suit your family’s lifestyle.

Upstairs, the first floor continues to impress with six well-proportioned double bedrooms, each filled with natural light and offering ample storage. Three of the bedrooms benefit from their own en-suite bathrooms, creating ideal spaces for family members or guests seeking a little extra privacy. The principal bedroom suite is particularly special, featuring a spacious bedroom area, luxurious en-suite, and lovely garden outlook — a true retreat at the end of a busy day. A stylish family bathroom completes the first-floor accommodation.

Outside, the rear garden is nothing short of spectacular. Fully enclosed and mainly laid to lawn, it provides the perfect backdrop for outdoor living and entertaining. Mature trees, established shrubs, and a paved patio area make this a wonderful space for al fresco dining, summer gatherings, or simply unwinding in peaceful surroundings. A brick-built outbuilding at the far end of the garden adds further flexibility, ideal as a workshop, studio, or garden room.

With its prime location, expansive accommodation, and potential for further development (subject to planning consent), Oakleigh House represents a rare opportunity to acquire a home of true distinction on one of Coventry’s most sought-after roads.

The property enjoys an enviable position close to Fillongley Village, which offers a range of local amenities including a 12th-century parish church, village hall, two welcoming public houses, and a variety of community clubs and activities.
