Lower Tysoe, Warwick, Warwickshire, CV35

A distinguished, edge of Cotswolds period farmhouse, thoughtfully modernised for contemporary living.


Description

Greenacres Farmhouse is a characterful Grade II listed farmhouse dating from the late 17th century, which underwent a sympathetic transformation in 2023 carried out by the current owners.

With versatile and beautifully presented accommodation and the ability to have a ground floor annex the property is ideal for multi-generational living.

Set in an enviable semi-rural location on the northern edge of the Cotswolds, Greenacres Farmhouse offers the rare opportunity, balancing heritage sensitivity with modern comfort. As part of the renovation extensive works were undertaken, including upgrading the heating system and radiators to an air source heat pump, as well as new bathrooms, kitchen and further alterations to enhance the sustainability and energy efficiency of the property.

A central entrance hall with flagstone floor leads into a wonderful, dual aspect, south facing kitchen / dining room with ample room for dining. The kitchen includes handmade, in frame wooden units by Monkeywood Kitchens with a quartz worktop, double butlers sink and Neff, Bosch and AEG appliances. Off the kitchen is a useful pantry area leading into a generous utility and boot room ideal for modern day living, with ample storage and a back door.

The delightful sitting room exudes charm, with an impressive inglenook fireplace and wood burning stove, window seat, timber floor and in-built shelving. A separate versatile snug with useful in-built storage can be used for a variety of purposes. There is also a downstairs WC towards the centre of the house.

A substantial study / family room with dual aspect provides an exciting opportunity for a variety of uses and is currently used as an impressive reception room. This connects to a downstairs bedroom with en suite bathroom. This wing of the house has a separate door to the garden and could be used as an integrated annex, ideal for multigenerational living.

The first floor provides a spacious principal bedroom with in-built storage and en suite shower room with Burlington fixtures and fittings. There are a further two bedrooms and an impressive family bathroom, which has been redesigned, including Burlington fixtures and fittings.
