Description
This is no ordinary plot. At its centre stands a brick-built powerhouse dating from the early 1940s, originally constructed to support RAF Honiley. With walls up to 13 inches thick, it carries a quiet sense of wartime resilience and now has permission for a bold new life as a glass-clad, five-bedroom woodland home.
The approved design pairs the building’s industrial character with expansive glazing and uninterrupted woodland views. Bi-fold doors open onto terraces, while an external spiral staircase rises to a rooftop terrace and a generous kitchen-dining space forms the natural heart of the home. Five bedrooms, multiple bathrooms, a utility, boot room, pantry and ample parking complete a layout equally suited to private family life, memorable entertaining or extended family living.
Here, you are not simply buying land. You are securing a remarkable story, an extraordinary setting and the opportunity to create one of Warwickshire’s most distinctive private homes.
An overage clause will be inserted in the legal documentation, with the final wording to be agreed by solicitors.
