Property description
7 York Road is a substantial family home in an enviable position close to Leamington Spa town centre and railway station. The property has beautiful views to the front over the River Leam and the Pump Room Gardens. The sizeable and flexible accommodation totals approximately 3,500 sq ft and has an abundance of character, from high ceilings to sash windows and deep skirting. The property requires some modernisation but there is a huge amount of scope to make this an incredible home.
A welcoming reception hall has doors radiating to the ground floor rooms and a staircase rising to the first floor. A beautiful drawing room has a feature fireplace and large bay window overlooking the park and Leamington town centre beyond. A sizeable sitting room is adjacent to the drawing room with a fireplace and French doors onto the garden.
As you continue down the hallway towards the rear of the house, there is a guest cloakroom, a door to the cellar and a dining room. Beyond the dining room is the kitchen/breakfast room overlooking the garden with sliding doors and a separate utility also gives access to the garden.
Upstairs, the principal bedroom is on the first floor overlooking the park and Leamington Spa beyond with an en suite bathroom and beautiful bay window. There are three further bedrooms on the first floor including a guest bedroom with an en suite shower room. The two further bedrooms share a family shower room and separate WC.
On the top floor, there are three further double bedrooms (one is used as a studio) and a kitchenette/laundry room. This accommodation at the top of the house would be ideal for children.
To the front of the house is a neat, well-stocked fore garden and a gated pathway leads down the side of the property to the rear garden.
The pretty rear garden is south-west facing, incredibly private and a great size for a town garden. It's mainly laid to lawn with an established border. There is a detached double garage at the bottom of the garden, accessed from a shared rear service road.
York Road is conveniently placed within walking distance of the train station and town centre, as well as the motorway network. At the heart of the town are the beautifully laid out Jephson Gardens on the banks of the River Leam and throughout the town there is evidence of the Regency and Victorian heritage for which Leamington Spa is renowned.
The area has some excellent schools including Arnold Lodge School and Kingsley School for Girls in Leamington Spa and in Warwick, King's High School for Girls, Warwick Prep School and Warwick Boys School.
For the commuter, trains run from Leamington Spa and Warwick Parkway to Birmingham and London Marylebone and the motorway network is accessible via the M40 with Birmingham to the north and London to the south.
