Built in the mid 1930's and even appearing in a 1935 edition of Ideal Home Magazine, this unique and simply exquisite detached residence has been a much loved and happy home for many years. With the main house presenting five reception rooms and four bedrooms, the property has also seen the creation of a detached one/two bedroom bungalow that is as versatile as it is practical. With stunning, South facing Luytens-style landscaped gardens, the plot is as unique a proposition as the home itself.

Within walking distance of the award winning War Memorial Park, the Train Station and Earlsdon, the property is also only a short walk from Henry VIII School and within two miles of The University of Warwick.

EXTERIOR FEATURES

A unique opportunity indeed, this beautiful home presents parking for multiple vehicles on the driveway and a garden designed and built to be truly loved and enjoyed.

A separate, detached garage/workshop (with an air raid shelter hiding below!), sits behind the detached bungalow. The gardens, South facing, Edwardian Luytens-style and sunken with a cruciform pool within the centre, see delightful natural areas counter balanced with well placed sunny sitting spots, a putting green and even a secret Tree House!

INTERIOR SPECIFICATIONS

The welcoming entrance hallway sits within the centre of the home with living spaces flanking each side. With four spacious and individual reception rooms, the property also sees an attractive kitchen dining room complemented by a separate and super practical utility and boot room.

Sitting off the dual aspect kitchen dining room, the morning room is a versatile space to sit and relax, work or read. Two further, very substantial sitting rooms are both very individual in ambiance and design. One with a Minton fireplace and the other a log burner, both have seen the installation of Maple sprung flooring from new.

From the sitting room, a stunning garden room with floor to ceiling glass and bi-folding doors has created the most lovely environment to sit and relax with coffee (or something a little fruitier!) at the end of day.

Upstairs, the four bedrooms, introduced by way of a winding and simply stunning, solid, original balustrade staircase (with a portrait central window), see a four piece family bathroom providing generous bathing without any compromise of space or style. The main bedroom, with dual aspect windows, leads through to a spacious dressing room and an en-suite bathroom.

THE DETACHED BUNGALOW "ANNEXE"

Originally a boat house, this detached addition was built in 2005 and provides ideal multi generational living or ideal guest or leisure space. With a separate boiler and wiring, this is a self sufficient annexe which is versatile in the extreme.

OVERVIEW

Believed to have only seen ownership by two families since it's build in the mid 1930's, this superb home has seen tremendous, practical improvement by the current owners. Modern high pressure boilers, roof and window upgrades and no attention to detail missed, this really will be, once again, a very exciting journey for the new owners.

We look forward to hearing from you!

THE LOCATION

The Firs is a unique and leafy enclave within a short stroll of both Coventry Train Station, The War Memorial Park and the ever so popular suburb of Earlsdon.

Earlsdon, often considered one of the most desirable suburbs in South Coventry, offers a wealth of local amenities as well as easy access to main roads and the train station. With well regarded primary schools within very easy reach and Finham, Bishop Ullathorne and King Henry VIII all within walking distance, Earlsdon has always been a popular location for families.

The close proximity of the beautiful War Memorial Park and Spencer Park offer certain appeal for dog walkers and lovers of the great outdoors! Tennis courts are available to hire and a delightful cafe, "The Bistro in the Park" sits within the Pavilion in the centre.

With private tennis, bowling and golf clubs also situated within the suburb itself, the location is ideal for those looking for more specific recreation facilities.

The train station, a very short walk away in this location specifically, allows an easy morning commute, sometimes in less than one hour, to London Euston and the city centre is also only a fifteen minute walk from the house.

For dining and socializing, coffee shops, bars and restaurants abound.

With its own theatre, library and social club Earlsdon really does offer a community spirit that's hard to match.
