About
Carters Estate Agents are privileged to present this beautifully appointed executive family residence, occupying a superb position at the foot of Walnut Drive , one of Mancetter’s most desirable residential settings.
Tucked away along a private, resident-owned no-through road, the property combines a peaceful and exclusive environment with excellent access to Atherstone, rail connections and the surrounding road network.
Extending to approximately 2,000 sq. ft across three floors , this is a home of genuine quality, scale and versatility.
Significantly transformed in recent years, the property now centres around an exceptional open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, complemented by a bespoke kitchen, two roof lanterns, two sets of bi-folding doors and a beautifully landscaped garden.
The home also benefits from bespoke shutters throughout, two en-suite shower rooms and the significant advantage of no onward chain .
Originally constructed as a five-bedroom home, the first-floor layout has been thoughtfully adapted to create a luxurious principal bedroom suite.
The original doorways remain in place, allowing a stud wall to be reinstated with relative ease should a purchaser prefer five separate bedrooms.
Combined with the impressive top-floor suite, the accommodation offers outstanding flexibility for growing families, older children, guests or those seeking a more private work-from-home arrangement.
Approaching the property along Walnut Drive, the house immediately creates an excellent first impression.
Its handsome frontage, resin driveway and neatly arranged landscaping give the home real kerb appeal, while the tucked-away position enhances the sense of privacy.
A composite entrance door opens into the welcoming hallway, providing access to the ground-floor accommodation and stairs rising to the upper levels.
Positioned to the front is a formal reception room, currently arranged as a comfortable sitting room and snug.
A front-facing window fitted with bespoke shutters draws in natural light, while the proportions make it equally suitable as a quieter family lounge, playroom or additional home-working space.
The real centrepiece of the property lies to the rear, where a beautifully conceived extension has created a spectacular open-plan kitchen, dining and living room.
Designed and completed with exceptional attention to detail, this is a space that genuinely delivers on both everyday family life and entertaining.
The bespoke kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of shaker-style cabinetry, complemented by granite work surfaces and a substantial central island.
The island provides extensive preparation space, useful additional storage and a natural gathering point for informal dining and socialising.
A full suite of integrated appliances includes a five-ring gas hob with extractor, NEFF oven, separate NEFF grill with warming drawer, dishwasher and drinks cooler.
A carefully designed recess accommodates an American-style fridge freezer, completing a kitchen that is as practical as it is impressive.
Beyond the kitchen, the room opens into a substantial dining and family area.
Two feature roof lanterns and two sets of bi-folding doors flood the space with natural light, while a centrally positioned multi-fuel stove provides a characterful focal point and ensures the room remains equally inviting throughout the colder months.
The bi-fold doors create a seamless transition into the landscaped garden, making this an outstanding year-round setting for family gatherings, dining and entertaining.
Leading off the kitchen is a well-appointed utility room, fitted with practical storage and work surfaces together with an inset sink and plumbing for both a washing machine and tumble dryer.
To the first floor, a central landing is illuminated by a front-facing window and provides access to three bedrooms, the family bathroom and the staircase rising to the top floor.
The principal suite has been created by combining two original bedrooms and is now a superbly proportioned retreat.
Two rear-facing windows bring in excellent natural light, while the generous floor space comfortably accommodates a king-size bed together with substantial fitted or freestanding furniture.
Two original doorways remain in situ, providing clear scope to restore the previous configuration and create two separate bedrooms if required.
This flexibility allows the home to operate either as an expansive four-bedroom residence or return to its original five-bedroom arrangement.
The adjoining en-suite shower room is modern and beautifully presented, with full-height tiling, a large double shower enclosure with mains-fed shower, inset vanity basin, WC, fitted cabinet and rear-facing window.
A further double bedroom is positioned to the front of the property, offering comfortable proportions and ample space for bedroom furniture.
The remaining first-floor bedroom is a well-sized single room currently arranged as a home office, but would work equally well as a nursery, child’s bedroom or dressing room.
The family bathroom is fully tiled and fitted with a contemporary white suite, comprising a whirlpool bath with jets, inset vanity basin and WC, together with a heated towel rail.
A useful airing and storage cupboard completes the first-floor accommodation. Ascending to the second floor, the home reveals another superbly versatile space.
This entire level is ideally suited as a private suite for older children, visiting family or guests and could equally function as the principal bedroom should the first-floor layout be reinstated to five bedrooms.
The bedroom area comfortably accommodates a double bed, with additional space for a dressing or seating area.
Built-in cupboards provide valuable storage, while an adjoining en-suite shower room is fitted with a mains-powered shower, white suite, tiled surrounds and heated towel rail.
A rooflight brings natural light into the room and reinforces the private, self-contained feel of this floor. Externally, the property continues to impress.
To the front, the resin driveway is presented in excellent condition and provides comfortable parking for two vehicles.
A small artificial lawn adds visual appeal and could potentially be adapted to provide an additional parking space if required.
The integral garage offers excellent storage and useful dimensions, while also presenting potential for conversion into further living accommodation, a gym, office or playroom, subject to the necessary approvals.
Gated side access leads into the beautifully landscaped, low-maintenance rear garden.
Porcelain paving extends along the side and across the rear of the property before curving towards the foot of the garden, creating a generous and highly attractive setting for outdoor dining and summer entertaining.
The remainder is finished with artificial lawn, while mature planted borders with established shrubs frame the rear and left-hand boundaries, softening the contemporary landscaping and adding colour and character.
This is a truly individual family home in an exceptional location — beautifully maintained, intelligently adapted and finished to an impressive standard. With approximately 2,000 sq.
ft of accommodation, an outstanding open-plan extension, flexible four or five-bedroom configuration, two en-suites and landscaped gardens, properties of this quality are rarely available in Mancetter.
Early viewing is strongly recommended to fully appreciate the accommodation, setting and lifestyle on offer.
