The Water Tower is a most exciting and engaging opportunity to acquire an authentic piece of history. Originally a windmill in the mid-18th century, this property was converted to a water tower in 1885. Eventually, it became the incredible residence we see today. Given the origins of this amazing building, it will come as no surprise that the accommodation spans over six floors.

The ground floor comprises an entrance hall, a delightful drawing room with sliding doors opening to the patio area, a home office/dining room and a bespoke kitchen/breakfast room. The kitchen has a range of units, a granite worktop, and a central island. The first floor is home to the principal bedroom suite, which has an en suite shower room and a door opening to a private terrace. As we continue up the tower, three bedrooms and a family bathroom are spread over the four remaining floors.

Outside, the property has a driveway, providing parking for several cars and giving access to the double garage. The gardens are a delight, surrounding The Water Tower in its entirety with a range of mature trees ensuring privacy, herbaceous borders, terraces and larger lawned areas.


The Water Tower is situated on Tainters Hill in the heart of Kenilworth. Kenilworth is a market town in the heart of Warwickshire, known for its historic castle, which dates back to Norman times. The town offers a wide range of shops, including a Waitrose, restaurants, public houses, sports facilities and general amenities to suit a variety of tastes. The property is well placed for the motorway and rail networks and Birmingham Airport.

The area is well served by a range of state, grammar and private schools, including All Saints CofE in Leek Wootton, Crackley Hall in Kenilworth, King Henry VIII and Bablake in Coventry, Warwick School for Boys and King's High School for Girls in Warwick, Kingsley School for Girls and Arnold Lodge School in Leamington Spa.

Stratford-upon-Avon, the region's cultural centre with its Shakespearean heritage and theatres, is 14 miles away, and an Art Centre at Warwick University is 4 miles away. Kenilworth has a golf club with The Warwickshire and Stoneleigh clubs nearby. Racing is at Stratford-upon-Avon, Warwick and Cheltenham, and sailing and fishing are at Draycote Water.

Coventry 5 miles (intercity trains to London Euston from 59 minutes), Warwick 6 miles, Warwick Parkway Station 6 miles (trains to London Marylebone from 69 minutes), Leamington Spa 7 miles, M40 (J15) 8 miles, Birmingham International Airport 11 miles, Stratford-upon-Avon 15 miles. (distances and times approximate).

Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
