North Chase

North Chase is a timber-framed house, likely built in the second half of the 16th century or early 17th century, with records indicating it was newly constructed in 1609. The house is two storeys and has an attic, with brick nogging between the timber framing and a tiled roof. It features early to mid-19th century Tudor-style cast-iron casement windows with patterned glazing.

The north-facing front has four unequal bays; the right-hand bay has a single two-light window on each floor, the upper floor of which has modern tile hanging. The second bay from the right projects as a full-height gabled wing with an oriel window on brackets on each floor. The first floor is jettied, with a tile-hung gable and a small casement window. An adjoining bay is narrow and set in the same plane, its roof continuing the slope of the main house's roof. This bay contains a single two-light casement on the first floor and has an open porch on the ground floor, featuring a round arch and a finial. The end bay corresponds to the one at the opposite end and has oriel windows on brackets on each floor. The east front is brick, dating from the 19th century, and was built after a fire destroyed half of the original house. The south front is of square panel timber framing with brick nogging and has various casement windows, along with a one-story kitchen wing. The west front is timber framed.

The interior remains largely original and unspoiled, with timber walls and ceilings, open fireplaces, and a fine oak well staircase, likely dating from around 1600, featuring elaborate newel tops and turned balusters. The first-floor drawing room has a two-tier stone chimney-piece of a similar date, believed to have originated from Kenilworth Castle.

The house is situated in a traditional-style garden on a hillside with extensive views. Historical information can be found in Dugdale's Warwickshire and the Victoria County History, Volume VI, page 134.
