Gorgeous Georgian seeks modern family life in Warwickshire village
Wed 03 Aug 2022
A ‘gorgeous’ Georgian, country village residence in Warwickshire is looking for a new family to share its fine accommodation, period features and fulfil the potential of all its mature grounds, swimming pool, and range of formal and informal lawns and gardens have to offer.
Milford House in Birdingbury, near Rugby, is a fine, detached, five bedroom, period property, with ancillary buildings, and is the latest of Shouler & Son’s premium properties launched for sale this summer.
Dating back to the early 18th Century and overlapping the period of the Queen Anne and Georgian architectural periods, the layout of the living accommodation and proportions of the rooms have remained true to the original style down the years.
Decorated in a contemporary style and with modern fixtures and fittings combining with standout period features, Milford House is laid across three floors, plus a basement/cellar area.
On the ground floor, two reception rooms lead from the hallway and there is also a lobby area to the rear of the main oak staircase.
There is a formal living room/drawing room to one side of the hallway and a more informal family room/dining room, with snug, on the other.
This leads on to the kitchen, a further lobby space/bootroom area, a cloakroom and the utility room.
In the kitchen, a butler’s passage and staircase leads to the cellar where there is dedicated storage for 1,000 wine bottles.
This secondary, butler’s staircase leads to the first floor too where there are three bedrooms and the family bathroom/shower room.
The principal bedroom has dual aspect windows looking to the front and rear of the property and an ensuite bathroom with a roll-top bath.
The second bedroom at this level has its own shower area. The third bedroom is located at the top of the butler’s staircase and has an additional storage area and is currently used as an office.
There are two further bedrooms on the second floor which would be suitable as guest bedrooms or as play or games rooms.
Milford House is set in 0.79 acres of mature grounds. There are clearly defined garden areas which, in combination, offer scope for entertaining, recreation by the pool and patio, a private walled garden in which children can play safely as well as a herb garden.
The property’s coach house has been arranged in four separate areas. Each has its own external access. The first two garage and workshop areas connect through to each other too.
Additional vehicle parking is available on the driveway where a winding path leads to the front entrance of Milford House.
In retaining period features when combining the best of the old and the new in its modern décor and fixtures and fittings, Shouler & Son believes that Milford House more than meets the requirements of busy, modern family life.
It offers a village home and setting in which all members of the family have the space to pursue work, study, recreation, hobbies and entertaining successfully.
Milford House, Birdingbury is for sale with a guide price of £1.25 million.
Viewing of the property is by appointment only through Shouler & Son as the sole agent.
