VENDORS COMMENTS I think we fell in love with the village before we had even seen the house, laughs Janet We drove in on a beautiful sunny February morning, through the lanes past the duck pond, into the centre of the village and it just looked and felt like a lovely place to live. The house and gardens were lovely but were in need of some TLC but we could see past all the work and knew that this would be an amazing family home - and it is probably just as well, because by that time we had really decided we wanted to live in this pretty village.
We did everything to the house, says Mike it is now twice the size it was originally. We've rewired, replumbed, and replastered, put in new bathrooms and a new kitchen. We then added a really large conservatory off the kitchen which leads you into the gardens. When we finished the house, we then turned out attentions to the gardens and we have redesigned and landscaped with different areas of interest. The end of the grounds culminate with a lovely relaxing area with seating in the Mediterranean garden The house and the gardens are particularly well suited to entertaining, adds Janet the house is now so open and spacious, and the kitchen particularly is the real heart and hub of the home. . When we are entertaining even thought we start with drinks in the lounge it's not long before everyone seems to be drawn to the kitchen. It is such a lovely space to gather and chat with friends. The whole house is warm and welcoming and guests usually comment on how relaxed and comfortable they feel, and I suppose that is the best compliment a host and hostess can be given.
The location is so central to all the major transport links and it is very easy to get about the country, says Mike. You can reach the M45 in about 3 minutes, Rugby rail station is only 7 miles away, and Birmingham international airport is an easy 40 minutes drive - we can drive to London in about 1 hour and 15 minutes- in fact travelling about has been very easy and has been ideal for business purposes.
We have really enjoyed living in this village, says Janet it is everything we thought it would be and very much more - and we have loved living in this happy home and whether having breakfast on the patio or a late evening supper on the veranda this is a house you can come home to and truly relax and unwind.
