Flax Lane, Twycross Atherstone CV9

Tucked away along a private country lane, 1 Flax Lane is an exceptional detached family home that effortlessly combines contemporary luxury with the tranquillity of its idyllic countryside setting.

Ground Floor:

A truly impressive reception hall creates an unforgettable first impression, with a striking staircase rising to the first floor and useful open storage beneath, setting the tone for the elegant accommodation beyond.

At the heart of the home lies an open-plan kitchen, living and dining room - an exceptional space designed for both relaxed family living and sophisticated entertaining.

The beautifully appointed kitchen combines luxury with functionality, centred around a substantial double width penisula incorporating an inset sink and hob with overhead extractor. High-quality integrated appliances include twin ovens, one with combination microwave functionality, a separate warming drawer and an integrated refrigerator. A large picture window perfectly frames views across the landscaped rear gardens, bringing the outside in, while filling the room with natural light.

Whether you’re enjoying an evening with friends or gathering as a family, this impressive room offers the perfect space to come together. A feature fireplace with inset log-burning stove provides a striking focal point, but it’s the extensive glazing, seamlessly connecting the interior with the rolling rural views outside, that dominates this part of the home. Bi-fold doors open onto the expansive rear decking that runs the full width of the property, complemented by French doors from both the living and dining areas, creating an effortless flow between inside and out.

Complementing the kitchen is a spacious utility room, thoughtfully fitted with an additional sink, plumbing for both a washing machine and dishwasher, an excellent range of base and wall cabinetry, together with a full-height larder unit, providing extensive storage and ensuring the principal kitchen remains both elegant and uncluttered.

A separate snug, that could also serve as a substantial home office, benefits from two dual aspect windows, overlooking the beautifully landscaped gardens, creating an inspiring setting for home working or a peaceful retreat.

Set just off the hall, and framed by a characterful bay window, a superb reception room -currently arranged as a gym - offers a versatile, light filled space that could be utilised as a formal sitting room, games room or family lounge.

Designed with practicality in mind, the boot room offers exceptional functionality being fitted out as a wet room, including a WC and shower. An external access door, together with an internal door leading back into the hallway, makes this the perfect entrance for dog owners, gardeners or countryside living, allowing muddy boots or paws to be cleaned before entering the main living accommodation.

The ground floor also benefits from a generously proportioned double bedroom featuring a large picture window and fitted wardrobes, conveniently served by a stylish contemporary shower room.

First Floor:

A spacious galleried landing forms the centrepiece of the first floor, creating a wonderful sense of space and light whilst providing access to the luxurious bedroom accommodation.

The principal suite is an elegant sanctuary, thoughtfully designed to maximise both comfort and the spectacular rural outlook. A large picture window perfectly frames uninterrupted views across the surrounding countryside, while an extensive range of full-height fitted wardrobes provides excellent storage. The suite is complemented by a beautifully appointed en-suite, featuring a generous walk-in shower and quality contemporary fittings.

A second double bedroom enjoys dual-aspect windows to both the front and rear elevations, allowing natural light to flood the room throughout the day. This impressive guest suite benefits from its own stylish en-suite shower room, providing privacy and convenience for family members or visiting guests.

Two further generously proportioned double bedrooms complete the first-floor accommodation. One features two Velux roof windows together with a striking picture window overlooking the front of the property, creating a wonderfully bright and characterful space. The other enjoys triple-aspect windows to the front, side and rear, capturing breath-taking panoramic views across the surrounding open countryside and filling the room with an abundance of natural light.

These two bedrooms are served by a beautifully designed Jack-and-Jill bathroom, offering a luxurious and practical arrangement, ideal for family living. The bathroom provides an elegant, shared space while maintaining privacy and convenience for both bedrooms.

The first floor has been thoughtfully planned to provide every bedroom with generous proportions, excellent natural light and a strong connection to the surrounding landscape, creating a peaceful retreat that perfectly complements the exceptional accommodation found throughout the home.

Outside:

The gardens at 1 Flax Lane have been thoughtfully designed to complement both the home and its idyllic countryside setting, creating a wonderful balance of beautifully landscaped outdoor spaces and practical family living.

To the rear, an extensive part decked, part paved terrace stretches across the full width of the property, providing an exceptional space for outdoor entertaining, al fresco dining and relaxing whilst taking in the breath taking panoramic views. With direct access from the principal reception areas via bi-fold and French doors, the terrace seamlessly extends the living accommodation outdoors, making it the perfect setting for gatherings with family and friends throughout the year.

Beyond the decking, the landscaped gardens have been carefully arranged to provide attractive lawns and mature planting. A generous paved patio provides an additional entertaining area, ideally positioned to appreciate the tranquillity and uninterrupted rural surroundings.

One of the property’s most captivating features is its remarkable outlook. The gardens enjoy far-reaching, uninterrupted views across rolling open countryside, with an ever-changing landscape that stretches for miles, creating a truly spectacular backdrop and an exceptional sense of peace and privacy.

To the side of the property, a paved pathway leads to a further patio area and a secure, enclosed section incorporating a dedicated washing line area. Gated access provides a practical route to the driveway and garage, while an external door opens directly into the rear hallway and boot room - an ideal arrangement for gardeners, dog owners and those returning from countryside walks.

The detached garage offers excellent secure parking and storage, complemented by additional driveway parking for several vehicles. To the front of the property, a Victorian brick-built storage building provides valuable additional space for garden equipment, bicycles or outdoor furniture, enhancing the practicality of this outstanding family home.

Beautifully combining elegant, landscaped gardens, versatile outdoor spaces and spectacular countryside views, the gardens at 1 Flax Lane provide an exceptional setting that is as impressive as the home itself.
