Unique Georgian Dwelling on Coleshill High Street – A Renovation Opportunity

Offered for sale is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial Georgian property, former home of a Lord and Lady, situated in the heart of Coleshill High Street. This impressive building, with its striking 3 storey façade and period features, presents immense potential for transformation into a stunning family home or a multi-generational living space.

The property is ready for restoration internally and is priced to reflect the opportunity for refurbishment. The dwelling provides a blank canvas within a wealth of beautiful original features for those with vision and a passion for period properties.

The expansive spaces, with superb high ceilings throughout, and large sash windows provide an abundance of natural light and a sense of grandeur, ideal for creating luxurious living areas. 

Importantly, the Grade II Listed building comes with a number of approved planning consents from North Warwickshire Council, allowing for enhancements to the existing layout, and providing further opportunity for development and customisation to suit your needs.

The total accommodation stretches to 6,260 square feet and is over 4 floors, including a very special brick vaulted cellar. Should the current permissions and consents be put into practice, these would reflect a ground floor with underfloor heating throughout, an internal foyer, 3 large reception rooms and a separate kitchen with double doors into the snug.  There is also a separate boot room and downstairs WC which has already been fully restored. The first floor will accommodate 4 large bedrooms each with an en-suite, and a first-floor laundry room. 

A secondary internal staircase which has been fully restored with handmade iron handrails gives access to the attic space, which offers privacy and independence from the main house. If the attic were to be converted, it would offer two additional bedrooms, a spacious living room, and kitchen space—perfect for extended family, guests, or even as a separate rental unit.

Outside, the property sits within a generous private 0.7-acre walled garden, providing plenty of space for outdoor activities. With an extensive lawned area and perimeter footpath that continues through the woodland area at the rear its setting is very special. The property benefits from parking within a gated courtyard, ensuring security and convenience. There is also a separate outbuilding within the garden which has a WC and store. 

This remarkable property is brimming with potential and offers an exciting opportunity for anyone seeking a grand Georgian home in a prime location. Whether you’re looking to restore it as a luxurious family residence or develop it further, this is a unique chance to create something truly special.
