Set in nearly an acre of landscaped grounds, this character-filled home radiates charm & tranquillity. Surrounded by stunning countryside walks & some of Warwickshire’s finest country pubs, Rectory Cottage offers a truly idyllic lifestyle in one of the region’s most desirable locations.Description - A charming and lovingly restored cottage, ideally situated just steps from the picturesque St Mary’s The Virgin Church, Rectory Cottage exudes character and warmth. Boasting original beams, two cosy log burners, elegant parquet flooring and breathtaking countryside views, this property offers a blend of traditional charm and modern comfort. The extensive gardens features a vegetable plot, children’s play area and a delightful sunken fire pit, making it ideal for family living and outdoor entertaining. With planning permission already granted for a remarkable ground floor extension (full plans available on request), this home offers exciting opportunities for a growing family.Entering Rectory Cottage, you are greeted by a country-style gated entrance leading to a tarmacadam driveway, bordered by a quaint cottage garden. The charming front door opens into a home full of character and warmth.To the left, a bright and airy triple-aspect lounge offers an inviting space, featuring original beams, parquet flooring and a cosy wood burner. Unlike many listed cottages, this room enjoys an abundance of natural light, creating a spacious yet homely feel. On the right, the dining area continues the cottage's theme of rustic elegance, with exposed beams and a second wood burner adding to its charm. Off the dining room, a generously sized cloakroom with an adjoining WC provides added convenience for guests.The current kitchen is complete with elegant quartz worktops, ample base and wall units, a pantry and a separate utility room. A side entrance leads to a gardener’s toilet and two large storage cupboards, adding practicality and convenience.One of the most appealing aspects of Rectory Cottage is its potential for further transformation. The granted planning permission will replace the existing single-storey garage and outbuilding with a vaulted, single-storey extension. This addition will feature a spacious double bedroom with an en-suite shower room, a boot/utility room and a stunning open-plan kitchen-diner with panoramic glazed views of the gardens and rolling countryside beyond.The plans also propose opening up the existing staircase in the kitchen, which will enhance the flow between both sides of the property, creating a more seamless and integrated living space.*Plans can be provided but are also available via Warwick District Council Planning portals.Upstairs, three generously sized double bedrooms all benefit from dual-aspect windows, offering sweeping views of the countryside. The rooms feature charming exposed beams and built-in wardrobes. A family bathroom, with a corner bath and separate shower, is located off the landing, alongside a separate WC. The planning permission includes provisions to combine the bathroom and WC into a luxurious family bathroom and add an en-suite to one of the upstairs bedrooms, creating a new principal suite.Outside - Set within just under an acre of land, Rectory Cottage offers beautifully landscaped gardens, including a large Summer House complete with electricity and heating, a spacious patio with an outdoor dining area, sunken fire pit, a children’s play area and a wildflower meadow.
