. An opportunity to purchase this extended family home in a rural location close to the village of Stretton Under Fosse and Brinklow. The accommodation comprises; 4 bedrooms, master bedroom with en suite, 2 on the ground floor, kitchen/breakfast, garden room, living room, sitting room, dining room, utility & cloakroom. The property is entered via a double five bar gate with block paved driveway and offers a double garage with additional outbuildings, formal gardens and lovely gardens to the side and rear of the property in all 0.7 of an acre. VENDORS COMMENTS . Stretton Under Fosse is a highly desirable area to live, its pastoral views and unspoilt countryside adding hugely to the appeal and allure. This is a beautiful landscape steeped in history, the roman road, The Fosse Way, straight as an arrow, lies to the east and the languid tranquillity of the Oxford Canal lies a short distance to the north of the property.
We loved the location immediately, says Mark and we both knew instinctively that this would be a fantastic place to live. The interior of the house at that time did, however need some thought and attention to inject a more modern lifestyle approach, and so we completely restored and renovated the house, reconfigured the reception rooms and extended the property. It now has the most amazing flow through the reception rooms and with some of the rooms opening directly onto the garden or having views over the countryside, there is now a wonderful connection with the outdoor spaces.
. The master bedroom has incredible views over the countryside, adds Rucky uninterrupted views, in fact. I just love the fact that there are lovely views whichever way one looks. The dining room looks over the gardens and the large kitchen has triple aspect, which make it such a light and bright room - always. I think the kitchen really is the heart of the house, we can seat 8 at the table and there is also a large family space which makes the kitchen a very popular room when entertaining or just spending relaxed informal time with friends over a kitchen supper. . We have all been so very happy here, comments Mark this is such a lovely place to be. The house is flexible and adaptable in the way the rooms can be utilised, and the house and gardens have been perfect when entertaining family and friends. There is also a great deal of peace and tranquillity here and we have enjoyed all the benefits of country life without ever being isolated or remote. Everything one needs to sustain a modern family lifestyle is within easy reach. Brinklow is just 1? miles away and has a shop and post office, and of course this area is renowned for excellent school facilities. Rugby is just 6 miles away and the main line rail station gives a London commute of about 50 minutes. Birmingham International Airport takes just 20 minutes to reach and the M6, M69 and A46 are about 3 miles from here, with the M1 just a 7 mile drive away. Yet I can come home and within minutes we can be walking in the countryside or along the towpaths of the Oxford Canal - feeling a million miles away from the hustle and bustle, and completely relaxed. Hawthorns has been a very special place to live indeed!
