House with garden and terrace Burton Overy (United Kingdom)
What are you looking for in your dream home? Peace & quiet? The chance to be close to nature? Great transport links? Proximity to services without them being right on your doorstep? Lots of space & light? A bit of the Good Life? Sounds good? We may just have the home of your dreams… Hebe House, The Lea is a stunning property, surrounded by rolling fields and a real feeling of space. This large, seven-bedroomed, detached family home is nestled in 1 acres (approx.) of beautifully landscaped gardens. It has the best of both worlds – it’s away from the hustle and bustle of the outside world, yet an easy commute to local towns and the city of Leicester. The conservation village of Burton Overy has long since been regarded as one of the most sought-after areas within rural south Leicestershire. Surrounded by rolling countryside and in close proximity to Leicester city centre, the village has a church, public house with a good restaurant and an active community centring around the village hall. Market Harborough and the city of Leicester are around ten miles away, both offering a wide range of shopping and recreational amenities and excellent schools are located in close proximity to the village. Local and further afield travel is a doddle with great road and rail links (the train from Market Harborough will have you in London in less than an hour) – and international travel is well catered for from a variety of easily accessible airports. There is an abundance of bridleways nearby perfect for riding, golfing at Glen Gorse is delightful and water sports at Rutland Water cater for the more adventurous among us. This home is a real find, an opportunity that comes on the market rarely. Built in 2018, Hebe House sits in an exclusive development of two substantial houses, known as The Lea. The architect and developer gave careful consideration to the layout and finish of this exclusive luxury property. Attractive wrought iron fencing frames the front and the electric wrought iron gate opens to a long driveway which sweeps by manicured grounds - each property having its own separate detached double garage, small paddock and useful brick-built store within its landscaped grounds. Kerb appeal does not disappoint, and those first impressions when pulling onto this expansive plot are not misplaced. With more than ample parking, enter the property through those gates and soak up your surroundings on your approach to the front door. The need to explore things further is a must. An attractive brick and timber porch houses the front door which opens into the spacious reception hall. From here, the sitting room, dining room and kitchen/dining room with utility room can be found. The hallway is also home to a downstairs WC, large cupboard for all those outdoor bits and bobs and staircase to the first floor. Wooden flooring and oak doors flow throughout, giving a beautiful sense of continuity to this home. The spacious sitting room spans the whole depth of the property. With its large dual aspect windows, bifolding doors to outside and feature fireplace, it is light and incredibly roomy. There is room for the largest of sofas and entertainment systems too, making this space cool, inviting and perfect for those evenings and special occasions full of entertainment and laughter, whatever the season. The dining room is offset from the kitchen, making it a really practical, elegant space – perfect for keeping eyes on everyone! Natural light floods the space through bifolding doors giving a spacious, calming vibe ready to be filled with the largest of tables full of good food. The exceptional kitchen/dining room is the real hub of this home. It really does have the wow factor. Fitted with Laura Ashley hand-crafted units, there is a tonne of storage and the top of the range appliances give a real luxury feel. It’s a great entertaining space and just right for modern family life. The island unit is full of storage solutions and appliances - and that extra seating space gives extra elegant practicality. The utility room, complete with fitted units, appliances and direct access to outside tops off this fabulous space. Take the bespoke wooden staircase to the first-floor landing full of light and space - totally in keeping with the rest of this home. Neutral tones continue the classic elegance throughout the four bedrooms on this floor, two with en suites, and the family bathroom. The master bedroom is a substantial size, spanning the depth of the property, with room for the biggest of beds and furniture to match. The dressing room is big enough for even the most well-dressed of us and the well-designed en-suite bathroom with walk-in shower and natural stone bath enhances the space further. Classic décor and beautiful views from the large dual aspect windows give this room a relaxed, calming grown up vibe. Bedroom two with en suite shower room and lots of natural light through front-facing windows, is another effortlessly cool space in which to bed down for the night. Bedrooms three and four are tastefully decorated in neutral tones, with views over the rear garden, countryside and beyond – perfect for bedrooms, a nursery or study space. The fresh, elegant family bathroom with separate shower and bath can keep up with the busiest of morning routines. From the graceful landing, take the next staircase to the second floor where you will find three lovely large further bedrooms, one with en suite and bathroom. Plenty of storage and oodles of light through the Velux windows at the top of this stunning property create a brilliant space for guests or older children alike.

Contemporary house with garden and terrace Sutton on Trent (United Kingdom)
Surrounded by beautiful countryside, Art House is a 'one-of-a-kind' contemporary home located in the charming village of Sutton-on-Trent. Carefully redesigned and extended by the current owners, the property has been thoughtfully arranged to maximise space and natural light, creating a stylish, low-maintenance home. Step inside and you're immediately greeted by a stunning open-plan living space and kitchen with vaulted ceilings and bi-fold doors opening onto a south-facing terrace perfect for entertaining. Floor-to-ceiling glass panels flood the interior with natural light. Every detail from the spiral staircase to the bespoke doors reflects the exceptional design quality. A large mezzanine area and separate sitting room add further character to this unique home. Upstairs, all the bedrooms feature their own stylish contemporary ensuite bathrooms, ideal for hosting overnight guests. Meanwhile, the principal bedroom enjoys a private dressing room and a balcony overlooking the garden. Outside, the garden is largely laid to lawn, with multiple spots for outdoor dining and relaxation. A detached stable block also offers excellent conversion potential as a studio, home office, gym, or guest annexe (subject to planning consent). Tucked away in a peaceful village location, yet well-connected to London and other cities via road and rail, Art House combines space, high-quality design, and privacy in a truly special setting. Sellers insights Art House is a contemporary home in a traditional rural setting. When we moved in, we redesigned and converted the property with the help of a well-known Canadian architect. We wanted to create light and open spaces that would be easy to maintain. Every inch has been designed to maximise both space and flow. We've incorporated unusual architectural details in the design like the Moroccan-style doors and the spiral staircase to give the house a distinctive look and feel. The open-plan living space and kitchen are perfect for entertaining and family gatherings. There's also a lovely, more traditional sitting room. The mezzanine space, which overlooks the ground floor, is incredibly light and versatile. I've used it as a study, but it would work equally well as a reading nook, a studio, or a creative retreat. The different living areas allow everyone to enjoy their own space. All the bedrooms come with individual ensuite bathrooms, which is ideal when friends or family come to stay no queues for the shower here! The garden is wonderfully quiet. There are several seating areas outside, perfect whether you're enjoying a morning coffee, dining al fresco with friends or having an impromptu BBQ. With the bi-fold doors on either side of the house, there's a lovely indoor-outdoor flow. When our grandchildren visit, they absolutely love running freely inside and outside the house. The garden is low maintenance too, ideal for a robot lawnmower! The stable block offers a huge amount of development potential. Subject to planning, it could easily be transformed into a home office, gym, creative studio, workshop, or even a guest annexe or Airbnb. It's a fantastic blank canvas. We love the peace and privacy here. The house is surrounded by mature trees and scenic countryside. There are some lovely riverside walks nearby where you can spot all kinds of wildlife, and fantastic places to visit locally, including Sherwood Forest. The area is steeped in history.

House with garden and terrace Hereford (United Kingdom)
Situated on the edge of Haywood Forest, the original dwelling was designed as a picturesque gamekeeper's cottage around 1800 for the old Belmont House estate. Its architect, known to have designed other buildings for the estate, is believed to have been John Nash, whose most famous Georgian buildings are the Blaise Hamlet near Bristol, Regent Street and ultimately Buckingham Palace in London. That original cottage was first extended in the late twentieth century and more extensively in the early 2000's. However, the current owners are responsible for the complete remodelling and decoration of the exquisite interiors and the addition of a handsome, secluded home office with gym and sauna, set within the immediate grounds. As you enter the main property, you are greeted by a welcoming and spacious hallway, with staircase to the first floor, a cloakroom with W.C and wash basin and a home office with desk and storage space. Turning left off the entrance hall is a generous and beautifully presented drawing room, with windows to front and rear aspect allowing light to fill the room. There is an inset woodburning stove, French doors leading out to the rear patio and a lovely view over fields to the rear. Turning right from the entrance hall, you enter a magnificent open plan kitchen-dining-snug room with light coloured travertine stone flooring throughout. This spacious and thoughtfully designed space is idea for socialising, with a high-quality kitchen complete with a central island-breakfast bar and a range of fitted appliances to include; combi microwave/steamer/oven, double oven, 6 ring induction hob, undercounter fridge and dishwasher, double sink and all finished with attractive granite worktops. There is a dining area with vaulted ceiling and a pleasant outlook over the front garden, as well as a snug area ideal for relaxing in the evenings. The laundry room is accessed directly from the kitchen-snug area, and provides further storage units, space and plumbing for washing machine and tumble dryer, sink, up-right fridge and separate freezer, along with a considerable pantry. Further to the hallway is a cloakroom with W.C, wash basin and granite worktop, as well as a home office with space for a desk and storage. A staircase leads from the entrance hall to the first floor landing, which is in itself a lovely bright, open space with wonderful panoramic views and plenty of storage space with numerous in built cupboards. The principal bedroom suite is perhaps one of the most appealing aspects of the property, boasting an large walk-out balcony which takes in those awe-inspiring views, and offers a perfect place to enjoy a morning cup of coffee. The en-suite has been tastefully upgraded by the current owners, and is designed with Carrara marble tops and tiling with a large shower enclosure, bath and double sink. The dressing room is spacious, with fitted wardrobes, and could easily be repurposed as a fourth bedroom or nursery if desired. To the opposite end of the first floor are two further double bedrooms, one of which enjoys those same wonderful rear views, with another overlooking the beautiful manicured front gardens, both served by a three piece travertine tiled family bathroom. Attached cottage In addition to the main house, Forest Lodge includes a charming one-bedroom attached cottage. This self-contained unit is perfect for guests or extended family, and having it's own entrance and garden area, offers opportunities for income. The lounge features a splendid high vaulted ceiling which adds to the sense of space and grandeur. The cottage also features a well-appointed shower room and modern kitchen with countryside views, ensuring comfort and privacy for its occupants. Further garden space could easily be apportioned to the annexe if desired. Set within five acres in total, Forest Lodge enjoys immaculately manicured formal gardens, with beautifully kept lawns and well planted beds, as well as a range of specimen trees and seating areas. To the rear of the house is a particularly special area, with a large paved patio and a decking area, placed strategically to make the most of the east facing views over fields of yellow and green towards Dinedor Hill and as far as the Malvern Hills. Further along from the house, a gate leads into a glade with mature trees, which leads down to a fantastic enclosed kitchen garden, with enough large established beds and a greenhouse to allow for a degree of (if not total) self-sufficiency. Continuing form here you enter a lovely orchard with a range of fruit trees, and several acres of paddock ideal for grazing or for transformation into a wildflower meadow. To the front of the property is a gated driveway, which leads to a parking area with space for numerous vehicles. The current owners have created an exceptional detached office suite, designed to emulate the character of the house, which includes a sauna & gym room. This space provides an excellent opportunity for those working from home or in need of a creative studio, offering a quiet and inspiring environment away from the main house. There is an array of outbuildings that include a detached double garage, steel framed barn, open fronted stone wood store, stables and potting shed. The whole property benefits from ultra-fast fibre broadband to the door. W3W///flagpole.fans.pulsing
