A unique, substantial four/five bedroom detached lifestyle equestrian home, set in approx. 11 acres, with good equestrian facilities and paddock grazing land, in a secluded location surrounded by woodland, with frontage to the Coventry Canal.

Rawn Hill Cottage presents a rare opportunity to acquire a highly distinctive rural property with exceptional environmental, geological and conservation credentials. Recently invited to apply for Rural Payments Authority funding under the Sustainable Farming Initiative, the site already benefits from long-standing RPA Level 2 payments, with the potential for future annual support to transfer to a purchaser. Designated a Local Wildlife Site by Warwickshire County Council, Rawn Hill supports abundant wildlife and has recently been surveyed by the RSPB in recognition of its thriving wild bird population, including endangered species. The hill itself is a protected laccolith, formed by volcanic activity around 450 million years ago, while Rawn Hill Wood is registered as Ancient Woodland with Natural England and as a natural bluebell wood with the Woodland Trust, offering strong protection from any future development, and preserving its unique character.

Enjoying a wonderfully peaceful rural position, the property remains exceptionally well connected, with Atherstone, the West Coast Mainline station, the A5 and major motorway links including the M42, M6 and M1 all within easy reach.

Mancetter is an attractive and historic village set on the south-eastern edge of Atherstone, noted for its Roman heritage and reputed associations with Boudicca’s final battle, as well as encampments linked to Henry VII and Richard III. Several of these historic landmarks can be appreciated from the property itself. Nearby Atherstone provides a wide range of everyday amenities, including shops, schools, pubs and places to eat.
