The Cooperage seamlessly blends historical charm with modern luxury. Dating back to the 18th century, this magnificent barn boasts sturdy oak beams, purlins, and roof trusses that embody traditional craftsmanship. However, its design has been thoughtfully updated with contemporary elements like sleek glass, steel accents, polished limestone flooring, and radiant underfloor heating. The interior spaces showcase exquisite oak joinery and premium finishes, outfitted to the highest standards of modern living.
The Cooperage boasts an abundance of natural light and an airy, spacious ambiance thanks to its two pairs of window and French doors that seamlessly connect the principal rooms to the garden. The crowning jewel is the breathtaking Dining Hall, spanning over 40 feet in length with a partial vaulted ceiling. An oak cantilevered staircase with a glass balustrade ascends to a glass catwalk above, adding architectural drama. The kitchen/breakfast area exudes sophistication with beautifully appointed black and grey units, integrated appliances, polished granite worktops, a wine cooler, and an instant boiling water tap. The spacious drawing room features a traditional Tudor arched fireplace, while a family/media room, study, cloakroom, pantry, and boiler room offer additional versatile spaces.
Upstairs, exposed timberwork and trusses create a warm, rustic ambiance complemented by vaulted ceilings and a contemporary catwalk. Three bedroom suites, including one with a dressing room, bask in the stunning views. A separate entrance leads to the west wing, a self-contained haven with its own kitchen/dining area, boot room, three bedrooms, and two bathrooms, one en-suite, ensuring privacy and flexibility.
Outside
The Cooperage offers ample parking with a large gravel area and a cart shed that provides three open-fronted garages and additional storage space. The front lawn is beautifully landscaped with outdoor lighting, maple trees, and hornbeam trees, creating a welcoming ambiance. The main garden at the rear is a true oasis, featuring a gravel patio ideal for outdoor entertaining and expansive lawns surrounded by well-manicured hedges, stately horse chestnut trees, and towering poplars. An orchard boasts a variety of fruit trees, including pear, cherry, plum, and apple, while a dedicated vegetable garden and greenhouse cater to those with a passion for horticulture. Adjacent to the drive lies a parkland field with a serene wooded area, offering a peaceful retreat amidst nature's embrace.
Situation
Tucked away from the public road yet offering sweeping vistas, The Cooperage enjoys a discreet setting close to the charming village of Ilmington. Nestled within a Conservation Area and the renowned Cotswold Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the property benefits from a tranquil, well-screened environment while still affording expansive views. Ilmington itself lies beneath the scenic Ilmington Downs, situated on the northern edge of the Cotswolds and boasting the highest point in Warwickshire. Villagers have access to amenities such as the historic St Mary the Virgin parish church, a local shop, the award-winning Howard Arms dining pub, The Red Lion public house, a village hall, and a primary school.
Nearby market towns like Shipston-on-Stour and Chipping Campden cater to everyday needs, while a Waitrose supermarket is conveniently located about 7 miles away on the edge of Stratford-upon-Avon. This renowned cultural hub, along with Leamington Spa and Cheltenham, offers a wealth of shopping, dining, and leisure options, including Stratford's iconic Shakespearean theatres. Commuters can access trains to London and Birmingham from stations in Moreton-in-Marsh, Warwick, and Banbury, while the motorway network is easily accessible via the M40.
The area boasts an excellent selection of schools, including Chipping Campden School, Kitebrook and Dormer House School in Moreton-in-Marsh, Bloxham and Sibford Public Schools, grammar schools in Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwick Prep and Public School, Kings High School for Girls in Warwick, and The Croft Prep School in Stratford. Recreational pursuits are well-catered for, with golf courses in Stratford-upon-Avon and Bidford on Avon, and racing events taking place in Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwick, and Cheltenham.
