House for sale in Kenilworth Upper

Exceptional Character Home with Versatile Garden Cottage plus Self-contained Flatlet
** UNDER OFFER**
Set on an expansive 2,422m² erf bordering the prestigious Wytham Estate in sought-after Upper Kenilworth, this immaculate character home beautifully blends heritage charm with a refined contemporary feel. A neutral colour palette, high ceilings, classic sash windows and sparkling crystal chandeliers create a timeless elegance throughout, while modern comforts ensure effortless family living.
A striking entrance with a heavy wooden door and glittering chandelier welcomes you into a gracious carpeted living room, complete with its own chandelier and a cosy woodburner. French doors open into an adjoining tiled sunroom featuring aluminium stacker doors, another statement chandelier and a fireplace, creating a seamless flow to the lush, established garden. Here, mature trees and pretty plantings frame a sparkling pool, offering a private sanctuary for relaxed outdoor living and entertaining.
The open-plan layout continues into a modern kitchen and dining space designed for both style and functionality. The kitchen centres around an expansive black Caesarstone island illuminated by overhanging pendant lights, complemented by a freestanding Smeg oven with gas hob. The dining area, warmed by an additional woodburner, comfortably accommodates a ten-seater table, making it ideal for gatherings with family and friends. A pantry-style passage leads to a well-appointed scullery, which in turn opens to a delightful enclosed courtyard with a sunroof, providing a bright and practical extension of the living space. Dowstairs also offers a versatile carpeted study or playroom.
Upstairs, a beautiful wooden staircase leads to three generously sized, carpeted en-suite bedrooms, two of which enjoy views of the distant Hottentots Holland mountains.
The property includes versatile separate accommodation comprising a 1-bedroom cottage with a small lounge and its own private entrance downstairs, ideal for guests or rental income. There is also a dedicated work-from-home office, offering a quiet and productive space. In addition, above the garage you'll find a fully self-contained flatlet featuring a bedroom, open-plan lounge and kitchen, and a lovely balcony — providing comfortable, independent living with added charm.
Completing this remarkable home is a double remote garage and comprehensive security including electric fencing, beams and an alarm system. This is a rare opportunity to own a gracious family residence in one of Upper Kenilworth's most desirable positions, where character, comfort and space come together in perfect harmony.
