Meriden Road, Berkswell Coventry CV7

Open House - Saturday 25th April. Book your appointment to view this exceptional home.

Four Oaks Farm presents a rare opportunity to acquire a characterful home held within the same family since the 19th century. Positioned on Meriden Road, this beautifully presented red brick residence blends period charm with versatile living across three floors, complemented by outbuildings and countryside views.

Ground Floor:

A welcoming entrance hall with tiled flooring leads to the principal living spaces. At its heart lies a delightful farmhouse-style dining kitchen, perfectly suited for both family life and entertaining. Flooded with natural light from the dual-aspect windows that frame the far reaching views across open countryside, the kitchen is fitted with solid wood cabinetry and the freestanding range style cooker, with stainless steel extractor fan overhead, forms a natural focal point in this charming kitchen.

Two elegant reception rooms provide versatile living space, perfectly suited to both relaxation and entertaining. The formal lounge is centred around a log-burning stove, creating a warm and inviting focal point, while a second lounge or snug, complete with a feature fireplace, offers an additional retreat. Both rooms are generously proportioned, beautifully presented in neutral tones and finished with soft carpeting underfoot.

A generous utility room with downstairs toilet adds further practicality.

First Floor:

Ascending the carpeted staircase, the first floor reveals a thoughtfully arranged layout. The principal suite is a delightful retreat, framed by a large sash window that enjoys far-reaching views across open countryside. A striking feature fireplace and exposed beams enhance the room’s charm, while an en-suite bathroom adds a touch of modern convenience.

Two further bedrooms are positioned on this floor, both beautifully light-filled and benefitting from picturesque rural outlooks. A well-appointed family bathroom completes the accommodation, conveniently located just off the landing.

Second Floor:

On the second floor, the staircase rises to two further double bedrooms. Generously proportioned, set within the eaves and featuring exposed beams, both bedrooms are rich in character and provide excellent accommodation for guests, or growing families.

Outside:

Externally, the property benefits from an inviting front garden, where a gravel pathway provides a charming approach to the home. At the rear, a courtyard-style patio can be found, enclosed by traditional picket fencing and perfectly suited to alfresco dining during the warmer months. Beyond, the remaining gardens are predominantly laid to lawn, offering a tranquil setting to enjoy the uninterrupted views across the surrounding open countryside.

To the side of the property, a generous driveway provides ample private parking for multiple vehicles, further enhancing the practicality of the home.

Scope to Convert:

A particular highlight of Four Oaks Farm is the impressive collection of outbuildings, including a characterful storage room with fireplace and a substantial three-bay barn, offering significant potential for conversion into a separate dwelling, garage, or office space, subject to the necessary planning consents.

A paddock is also available by separate negotiation, adding further appeal for those seeking a more rural lifestyle.

Location:

Situated on Meriden Road in the heart of the countryside between Berkswell and Meriden, the property enjoys a delightful rural setting with far-reaching views. Despite its tranquil surroundings, it remains conveniently placed for excellent transport links and nearby amenities, offering the perfect balance of country living and accessibility.
