The Adams as a Family Home “I love living here, its home for me,” says the owner, “I get the pleasure of looking after my wonderful grandchildren, in a great big house that is exquisite for playing hide and seek in!

We have a lovely large Old English sheepdog who partakes fully in these games which can often last for hours and hours! Leamington is a lovely place to live; it has all the facilities that anyone would want. This is the longest I have ever lived anywhere in my life; 10 years and in many ways I don’t want to stray too far. Leamington is a wonderful place, and The Adams, a wonderful place within a wonderful place!”

Home

Business The Adams as a Business “The Adams is a wonderful business and we have thoroughly enjoyed every minute spent running it. We have many guests who stay with us on a regular basis - some every week and they have become friends.

There’s always something happening in Leamington which is marvellous for the business because we are busy all year round. We are very close to the NEC, just 20 minutes away by train. We also have many festivals throughout the year here, and The Assembly is a lovely music venue. In the summertime we have the participants of the Bowls tournament; we have the Ladies for the first two weeks of August and the Gentlemen for the last two weeks. There are business people during the week but also tourists at the weekends. We are right in the middle of the country, close to the Cotswolds, StratfordUpon-Avon and Warwick Castle, so there is lots of interesting history in the area. There is something for everyone so we are always very busy. It’s an absolute joy, I wake up in the morning and we can have anything from four or five people to over 20. There is also plenty of scope to expand the business, we have often been asked if we would consider hosting weddings and small conferences, but we have been happy to continue as solely a Bed and Breakfast.”

The Adams as a Development Opportunity “The Adams represents a wonderful development opportunity. Several developers within the local vicinity have taken advantage of the high demand for property and with the right planning permission in place we believe a developer could convert The Adams into as many as 10 units.You have accommodation here which is split over three floors and there has previously been planning permission

to incorporate the double garage. The Adams is positioned close to the train station and just a short walk from the town centre, which would make it a great place for commuters. It could be nicely redesigned into one and two bed apartments to generate income as buy to let properties or as new homes for first time buyers. In recent years other developers have converted some of the Regency properties

on Avenue Road so there is an appetite for local developers to take advantage of some of these older traditional buildings. This is a large plot in a desirable location with rear access and a good turning circle which would provide plenty of parking�.
