FLOOR LAYOUT PLAN
THIS PLAN IS FOR IDENTIFICATION PURPOSES ONLY
It is not to scale and is intended to show the approximate relationship of one room to another, with an indication of the main fixtures and fittings
Berkswell is a delightful country village close to Hampton in Arden, Meriden and Balsall Common. The village includes a primary school, post office and stores, church and local pub. The cities of Coventry (6 miles) and Birmingham (15 miles) are within daily commuting distance, and Solihull, Kenilworth, Stratford-upon-Avon, Leamington Spa and Warwick are also within easy reach. The National Exhibition Centre, Birmingham International Airport and Railway Station (17 miles) and the Midlands motorway network are all easily accessible.
Tanners House occupies a magnificent secluded setting amidst extensive gardens and grounds approaching 4.5 acres and adjoin open countryside. The property, it is believed dates from circa 1650 with substantial additions carried out in the late 1800's. The present owners carried out an exhaustive restoration and refurbishment programme in 2005 and Tanners House now affords a superb family home which combines the best of contemporary living with character accommodation.
The refurbishment works include double glazed replacement windows, Italian limestone flooring with under-floor heating, new contemporary sanitary ware, main gas central heating system with cast iron radiators, comprehensive lighting system, refitted kitchen with Orangery extension and useful mezzanine home office with sitting/reading area.
On the ground floor the property offers a large reception hall with guest cloakroom, part oak panelled lounge, separate dining room, family room, gym/recreation room with shower room, superb open plan kitchen/orangery with breakfast room plus separate laundry room. On the first floor is the principal bedroom suite with dressing room and en suite, three further bedrooms, two en suites, family bathroom, plus excellent Home Cinema room. A staircase then gives access to a mezzanine home office and bedroom and in addition there is a second staircase leading to a further bedroom suite, overall offering very versatile and adaptable accommodation.
In addition to the main house, Tanners House benefits from an adjoining three bedroom cottage, ideal for staff/relative use.
Here then is a substantial and considerably enhanced period family home in a truly outstanding private setting, offering extensive family accommodation with the benefit of an adjoining 3 bedroom cottage, which could be ideal for staff/family use or let to provide a useful income.
The property is approached through remote controlled entrance gates, which give access to a long sweeping driveway, with outside lighting and superb natural pond and lawns. The driveway in turns runs through an archway with the cottage to one side and the main family residence to the other with block paviour courtyard entrance and access to the garaging.
