Lansdowne Circus is one of Leamington Spa’s most sought-after Regency locations — perfectly placed just minutes from the town centre and within easy reach of the railway station, yet quietly tucked away from the bustle of everyday life.

At the heart of this elegant private enclave is a landscaped communal garden, around which the distinctive Regency style properties are arranged. Characterised by their handsome painted stucco façades and graceful cast-iron verandas, Lansdowne Circus offers a rare combination of period charm, tranquillity and exceptional convenience.

This particular property has been sympathetically modernised and refurbished to a high standard, thoughtfully combining the elegance and character of its Regency origins with the comfort and quality expected of modern living.

A truly special home in a highly desirable and wonderfully peaceful setting — with Leamington’s vibrant town centre quite literally on the doorstep.

Nestled in a peaceful and private location a mere stones throw from the centre of Leamington Spa, 10 Lansdowne Circus is an exceptional Grade II* listed townhouse of considerable architectural and historical interest. Arranged over four beautifully proportioned floors, the property offers four bedrooms, three bathrooms and a superb collection of formal and informal living spaces, extending to approximately 2,746 sq ft including the detached garage.

The house is distinguished not only by its elegant Regency architecture, but also by its place in Leamington's history. A blue plaque on the façade commemorates the American novelist Nathaniel Hawthorne, author of The Scarlet Letter, who lived at No. 10 in 1857. Today, the property has been beautifully presented and sensitively upgraded, retaining the architectural details that give these houses their unmistakable character while introducing stylish contemporary spaces ideally suited to modern family life.

Set back behind an attractive front garden, the handsome stuccoed façade and decorative ironwork provide an impressive introduction. The entrance hall immediately establishes the scale and character of the interior, with high ceilings, wooden flooring and the elegant original staircase rising through the house.

The principal reception room is a magnificent drawing room overlooking The Pleasance. Exceptionally well proportioned, the room is flooded with natural light through tall French doors opening onto the decorative iron balcony. Original shutters, ornate cornicing, a ceiling rose and handsome fireplace combine to create an elegant yet inviting room equally suited to entertaining and everyday living.

Positioned to the rear is the formal dining room, another beautifully proportioned reception space with a feature fireplace incorporating original decorative tiling and views towards the garden. An adjoining office provides a dedicated home-working space without compromising the principal reception rooms.

The lower ground floor has a distinctly more relaxed character and forms an excellent counterpoint to the formal accommodation above. A beautifully appointed kitchen sits at its heart, with painted cabinetry, extensive preparation and storage space, a central island/breakfast bar and integrated appliances. Herringbone timber flooring brings warmth and character to the room, while doors open directly onto the lower garden terrace, creating a natural connection between the house and outside entertaining space.

Alongside the kitchen is an inviting living room/snug with extensive fitted bookshelves, providing a comfortable informal reception room. A separate utility room and cloakroom complete this highly practical level.

The first of the bedroom floors provides two substantial double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly impressive, with generous proportions, high ceilings, a feature fireplace and large sash windows overlooking The Pleasance. A private en-suite shower room complements the bedroom.

The second bedroom is another generous double overlooking the rear garden, while the family bathroom is a striking room in its own right. A freestanding roll-top bath takes centre stage, accompanied by a separate walk-in shower, traditional sanitaryware and an original fireplace – an excellent example of the way in which the house successfully combines period character with contemporary comfort.

The uppermost floor provides two further double bedrooms, together with a shower room, excellent storage and a generous central landing. This arrangement offers considerable flexibility for children, visiting family and guests, or for those requiring additional home-working accommodation.

Outside, the private rear garden has been attractively landscaped to create a secluded and manageable extension of the living space. Doors from the kitchen open onto a lower paved terrace, with steps rising to the principal garden where a central lawn is framed by raised borders, established planting and mature greenery.

At the end of the garden is the detached garage, approached from King Street and providing valuable parking or storage. Access between King Street and the house is through the garage itself rather than via a separate side passage.

To the front, Lansdowne Circus surrounds The Pleasance, its beautiful private communal garden, collectively enjoyed by residents and providing a remarkable green setting at the heart of the town. The property also benefits from residents' parking on Lansdowne Circus, with additional free parking available on King Street.

Few properties combine architectural distinction, scale, location and history quite as successfully as No. 10. With its prized corner position, exceptional reception rooms, beautifully balanced accommodation, private garden and garage, this is a rare opportunity to acquire one of Leamington Spa's most distinctive Regency homes.
