5 bed detached house for sale

Hawkesworth Drive, Kenilworth CV8

Beautifully reimagined, extended and carefully enhanced over more than four decades by the current owner, 6 Hawkesworth Drive is an individual family home with genuine architectural character, offering over 2,500 sq ft of flexible accommodation in one of Kenilworth’s most established residential settings.

This listing relates to the house and its retained gardens at a Guide Price of £850,000. An adjoining section of side garden, extending to approximately 150 sq m, is excluded from this sale and is being marketed separately as a potential development opportunity. The house and adjoining land are also available to purchase together.

Evolved considerably from its 1960s origins, the house now offers an unusually versatile arrangement of living, entertaining and working spaces, well suited to modern family life.

Ground Floor

The entrance hall immediately introduces the individuality of the house, centred around a striking open timber staircase.

Running the full depth of the property, the principal lounge is a wonderfully bright and generous room, with a large picture window to the front, feature brick fireplace and doors opening directly onto the garden.

Alongside, the dining room provides a further substantial entertaining space and could potentially be opened into the lounge to create a larger open-plan arrangement if desired.

The contemporary kitchen is finished with gloss cabinetry, curved detailing and granite worktops, with integrated appliances and space for informal dining. Double doors connect with the garden room beyond, creating an excellent flow between the main living spaces.

Designed for year-round use, the garden room features bi-fold doors opening onto the garden together with an indoor braai barbecue and chimney, giving the space a particularly distinctive entertaining focus.

Elsewhere on the ground floor is a flexible fifth bedroom or snug, a separate study/home office, utility area and guest WC.

First Floor

The upper floor is arranged across two staircase wings, adding to the individuality of the layout.

One wing leads to a generous additional lounge and studio space, illuminated by Velux windows and complemented by extensive eaves storage. It provides an excellent environment for home working, hobbies, teenagers or simply as a separate retreat from the main living areas.

The principal bedroom forms a private suite with its own dressing room and en-suite bathroom.

Further well-proportioned bedrooms and the family bathroom complete the accommodation, creating a layout with considerable flexibility for family life, guests and working from home.

Outside Spaces

The house retains established gardens providing an attractive and private setting around the property, with mature planting and space for outdoor dining, entertaining and relaxation.

To the front, an in-and-out driveway provides generous off-road parking alongside a covered carport and substantial garage/workshop, offering excellent space for vehicles, storage, hobbies or practical use.

Kenilworth

The location is a particular strength, with Old Town Kenilworth within easy reach and its excellent selection of independent shops, cafés, pubs and restaurants close at hand.

Abbey Fields, Kenilworth Castle and the surrounding countryside are also nearby, providing easy access to some of the town’s best-known green spaces and historic landmarks.

Connectivity

Kenilworth railway station provides services towards Coventry and Royal Leamington Spa, with onward connections further afield.
