Aptly named "The Roundhouse" for its distinctive design, this very individual and exceptionally finished property is perfect for buyers in search of something truly extraordinary.
The former structure was built in the 1920s and once served as the reservoir for the village of Ullenhall, but was made redundant in the 1980/90s, following improvements to the local water supply. In 2018, the property was purchased at a public auction by the current owner, who has since carried out a meticulous and thoughtful redevelopment (Ref: 17/01459/FUL), transforming it into the unique residence it is today.
Boasting accommodation over three floors, the property briefly comprises; three spacious double bedrooms, each with their own luxuriously appointed en-suite, extensive main living space (incorporating dining, living, music and study areas), beautifully fitted bespoke kitchen and practical utility/WC. Externally, the property benefits from a pleasant wrap-around garden with panoramic views over the coppice wood beyond, timber car port, and ample driveway parking.
Ullenhall is an idyllic village set amongst the glorious Warwickshire countryside. The centre of the village boasts a thriving pub ("The Winged Spur"), active village hall, fine parish church, tennis club, and adjoining recreational fields. It lies within easy access of the A435, which, in turn, provides fast links to the M5, M40 and M42 motorways. In addition, the village is located approximately 2 miles to the West of the popular and picturesque former market town of Henley-in-Arden, with its wide range of shopping and recreational facilities, and further amenities to include; dentist, medical centre, primary and secondary schools, and railway station ("Henley-in-Arden"), which offers regular trains to Birmingham City Centre and Stratford-upon-Avon.
This property is set back from the road behind a 5-bar timber gate that gives vehicular access to the driveway, which provides parking for multiple vehicles and gives access to the car port. There is a further 5-bar timber gate giving pedestrian access and an EV charging point to the front of the property.
