The charming village of Churchover is conveniently close to Rugby and here, in its centre, stands this special, well proportioned, spacious, three storey, property which has been the treasured family home for its present owners for the past twelve years.

The owners were hunting for a home to suit their busy work life balance and Aveley House, in this exceptionally convenient location, ticked all their boxes. A solidly built property constructed in the mid nineteenth century requiring quite a lot of t.l.c. but its position within the was village ideal. Having a great deal of respect for its history and ensuring that its character remained intact, the house was totally renovated and a large extension added. The traditional style of the house presents a comfortable familiarity but now, with its sense of space and contemporary comforts and luxuries, does have a fabulous wow factor. The kitchen is very much the focus of family life and with its bi-fold doors opening out onto a spacious patio and on into the garden, on sunny, warm, days, this brilliant space offers the very best for indoor/outdoor living. It is an idyllic house for parties and family gatherings, and it is very much the ‘go to’ house for Christmas celebrations.

The generous expanse of lawn is bordered by mature trees and shrubs and certainly an area in which to enjoy al fresco dining or quiet relaxation. The garden leads to its field in which has been utilised for grazing, but the owners have appreciated their chickens being very content in here.

The village, although small, has an amazing sense of community with a bar and a hall which regularly hosts events for residents. Good pubs can be found within a couple of miles and serve fantastic food. Shops, quality supermarkets, farm shops are all close at hand. Education opportunities, whether state or independent, are within easy reach and, of course, the famous Rugby school is more or less on the doorstep. There are first rate golf courses nearby as are other sport and leisure opportunities. Travel by road and rail to all parts of the country is efficient and the village is within easy reach of airports for international travel.

This delightful home presents the best of everything in this fabulous location. Its present owners wish whoever decides to live here as much happiness and contentment as they have experienced whilst living here. *

Electric gates open into a large parking area with a printed concrete driveway. There is a wide variety of outbuildings, including the workshop and two stables and a covered carport providing parking for two vehicles. The gardens are particularly attractive, laid mainly to lawn, but with some attractive seating areas in a south facing environment and a children’s bark covered play area and sunken trampoline. At the end of the driveway just past the outbuildings is a gate that provides access to the fenced paddock which measures 1.07 acres and houses two stables. Our clients currently have an arrangement with a neighbouring landowner to rent a further half an acre with a private arrangement and annual cost.
