Lower Ground Floor (The Quarters) • Four Ample Bedrooms: Generously proportioned bedrooms offering quiet views toward the private gardens. • Versatile Fifth Bedroom / Utility Room: Currently utilized as a spacious utility hub, this flexible space could easily serve as a fifth bedroom, home office, or gym. • Family Bathroom: A quality, beautifully appointed family bathroom serves the lower level. • The Conservatory: Featuring elegant flooring, this expansive sunroom bridges the gap between indoor luxury and outdoor serenity, stepping straight out into the rear grounds. • The Covered Walkway: A practical architectural link adjoining the front and rear gardens. External Grounds & Potential The property is set back behind a dramatic, walled front garden with an extensive frontage, boasting a large driveway, carport, and a secure garage. To the rear lies a sizeable, beautifully established, and completely private mature garden. The sheer scale of the corner plot offers massive scope for those wishing to undertake bespoke modernizations or substantial extensions. A Note from the Owners "This house has been a much-loved family home filled with wonderful memories, and we will be sad to see it go, but it has now beautifully outlived its purpose for us. We have recently redecorated throughout and upgraded the entire perimeter with high-specification, insurance-compliant security locks for total peace of mind. The property is incredibly convenient. Having the War Memorial Park right on your doorstep offers beautiful daily walks, and for golfers, two of Coventry’s premier private members clubs—Finham and Hearsall—are within easy reach. The location perfectly balances the tranquility of the outskirts with the connectivity of the city, offering rapid access to Leamington Spa, Stratford-upon-Avon, and major motorway networks. It truly does have it all." The Location & Lifestyle Widely regarded as one of Coventry’s most prestigious residential addresses, Stivichall offers an idyllic lifestyle on the edge of the city. • Commuting: Superbly placed for the commuter, Coventry Railway Station is just a short walk away, offering a direct line to London Euston in under an hour, alongside swift connections to Birmingham Central and Birmingham International Airport. • Education: The property falls within the catchment and easy reach of top-tier schooling, including King Henry VIII, Finham Park, Bluecoat, and Manor Park Primary. The property also has satellite and broadband connection. • Amenities: Conveniently situated for easy commutes to the University Hospital, local supermarkets, boutique health clubs, and the A45/A46 trunk roads.
