Seller Insight
Rowan House is a superb and elegant, barn style, family home that offers luxury living at its very best. The present owners explain that when they viewed the house they were impressed by the small development of four bespoke homes, built to a high standard, with views stretching across the Warwickshire countryside, and easy access to local towns. It has been a much loved home for six years.
The owners have made major changes to the original build. They added a double storey extension, where the generous use of glass highlights the tranquil views to the garden and fields beyond. The extension enabled the creation of a splendid master bedroom suite, and the remodelling of two further en suites, that were featured in Homes and Gardens and Ideal Home. These ‘spa’ bathrooms have the wow factor of a luxury hotel.
The owners find it impossible to choose a favourite room, as this is a home, when, from the moment you enter the large light flooded entrance hall, you are struck by the generosity of space and welcoming ambience. The well equipped, open plan kitchen and family room is the vibrant heart of the house. You can gather round the island and chat to the cook, or settle into a comfy chair and enjoy pretty views to the garden. It is an ideal entertaining hub and the owners recall many occasions when guests have spilled onto the patio, or walked across to the garden room.
The dining room can be the setting for a relaxed festive family meal or a more sophisticated evening with friends. Later everyone can retire to the living room where the exposed oak beams, stone inglenook fireplace and doors opening to the garden and pond, combine to make a calm and excellent area for total relaxation.
The master bedroom’s vaulted ceiling, has a great wow factor; and the huge dressing room, copper bath, and Juliet balcony that allows you to drink in your idyllic surroundings form an ideal adult sanctuary.
The landscaped garden is a further delight of this impressive house. There is the choice of chilling out by the pond with its waterfall, or sitting in ‘the breeze house,’ where with the canvas sides rolled up, you can sit in its shade and watch the kites wheeling across the sky or the owls hunting as dusk falls. The colourful borders, lawns, and variety of trees, including fruit trees have provided much pleasure, with tents pitched and parties for fifty people; whilst the grandchildren love playing in the garden. It is multifunctional space but also one where you can sit, surrounded by an oasis of gentle calm.
Rowan House is in the delightful village of Combrook, a community minded and friendly village with events that include: weekly coffee mornings, arts and craft group, barbecues, cream teas, wine and gin tasting as well as many others. The extraordinary Compton Verney is a short walk away and has many walks, sculpture park, lake, art galleries and annual events. Historic Stratford-upon-Avon is eight miles away and it is a fifteen minute drive into Leamington Spa, with rail links to London. You enjoy the best of town and country living from Rowan House.
The owners will miss this very special house that has been perfect for happy family living and entertaining. They take away many happy memories.*
