Ravenswood House (formerly known as Southam Fields Farm) is believed to date originally from about 1765, with later additions, including the wonderful, largely glazed family/dining room built in 2021, and is not a Listed property.
The family room facing south and west is bathed in light with roof lanterns and extensive glazing, including French doors and bifold doors opening on to the garden and outside dining area. Underfloor heating and a fireplace with woodburner. The drawing room has a south-facing bay window with French doors and fireplace with woodburner. Sitting room with cast iron and tiled open fire. Exposed ceiling timbers.The property has been the subject of very extensive renovation by the present owners, including reroofing of the house, barn, and most outbuildings, new double-glazing throughout, replacement of some floors. New boiler and updating of the central heating and hot and cold water systems, remodelling of the second floor bedrooms.
The property has two new bathrooms with underfloor heating and, a new fitted kitchen with integrated appliances and utility room off. Off the hall is a large cloakroom with cupboards and plumbing for washing machine and dryer.
To the first floor, off the landing, are three south-facing double bedrooms, bedroom three with a walk-in closet and the principal bedroom with an en suite bathroom. To the second floor are two further bedrooms, one with a walk-in closet, which might be suitable for a further en suite bathroom, subject to any necessary consents.
Gardens and grounds
The property is approached along the long driveway to electric gates to a large courtyard, which provides extensive parking. The range of outbuildings attached to the farmhouse include a wood store and fuel store, also housing the oil tank, store and a home office over 33 feet long with door to the courtyard and door and windows overlooking the garden. Detached carport.
The double-height barn attached to the house, with driftway doors, and which has had work undertaken to strengthen the structure and which provides the opportunity to develop the property further for additional accommodation for multi-generational living or to use as a party barn, additional garaging or storage. The further section of the barn is a music studio, off which is a further range of outbuildings providing significant additional storage and forming the east side of the courtyard. The property has a very large garden with expansive lawns and a patio with external fireplace for outdoor dining. External lighting.
Orchard with over 60 fruit trees include plum, apple, cherry, pear and almond. Herbaceous beds, raised beds and grape vine. There is a 26 x 14-foot polytunnel for growing vegetables and soft fruit and a modern greenhouse.
Ravenswood is situated at the end of a long farm track, surrounded by open farmland and with attractive views. The property is close to Southam, the nearby market town which has schools, including Southam School, and shopping facilities, churches, leisure centre, sports fields and doctors surgery. Also close by is the popular village of Long Itchington, a thriving, sought-after village with two nurseries and a primary school, general stores, post office, church, hairdressers and several public houses/restaurants.
