Set off Woodhouse Lane in Shelley, this impressive home sits within a wonderfully private plot, enveloped by open fields and commanding outstanding far‑reaching views. Positioned within just over half an acre of beautifully maintained grounds, The Lodge combines space, tranquillity and exclusivity in equal measure.  The accommodation extends to 4,706 sq ft (inc garage), comprising a substantial five‑bedroom executive home with garaging and a superb one of a kind detached summer house — a perfect retreat for entertaining, relaxation, or use as a home office – an ideal work from home office retreat. This is a property that offers not only scale and quality, but a lifestyle defined by privacy, open countryside, and the luxury of expansive grounds. For buyers seeking a home that feels truly set apart, The Lodge delivers something genuinely special. When arriving at The Lodge automated gates open to reveal the grounds, and upon entering, it becomes instantly clear that this is a true sanctuary, perfectly tucked away and surrounded by open countryside. A covered oak‑framed storm porch provides an attractive and characterful welcome, leading into the reception hall — a notably spacious entrance that offers a superb first impression. This generous hallway sets the scene for the scale and quality found throughout the home, giving a wonderful sense of arrival. The property enjoys two reception rooms, each offering its own distinct atmosphere.  The sitting room is neatly positioned in a quieter corner of the house, creating a more intimate retreat. Bathed in natural light from windows to two aspects, it enjoys a peaceful outlook over the grounds and features a living flame gas fire, making it a cosy and inviting space during the winter months. In contrast, the living room is a truly impressive room — expansive, characterful, and designed to embrace the surrounding views. High ceilings and large windows flood the space with natural light, while a log burner provides a striking focal point, enhancing the room’s warmth and charm. At the heart of the home lies the exceptional living dining kitchen, complemented by a formal dining area. Designed and installed by the highly acclaimed KC Kitchens, this space showcases meticulous attention to detail and a refined, contemporary aesthetic.  Sleek modern cabinetry integrates appliances seamlessly, with careful ergonomic consideration given to the layout.  A stylish, on‑trend pantry offers a dedicated breakfast station, complete with sockets for a coffee machine and toaster.  The central island provides a sociable dining option as well as additional storage, making it both practical and elegant. Originally separate, the formal dining room has been thoughtfully opened into the kitchen — a superb upgrade made during the kitchen’s redesign.  Bi-fold doors from the sitting area lead out to the patio terrace at the rear and contribute to an abundance of natural light with additional floor to ceiling windows and a stable style door providing access to the garden.  This integration creates a more cohesive and sociable environment, ideal for entertaining and family gatherings. A separate utility room offers further storage and a practical space for laundry and household items, keeping the main kitchen beautifully uncluttered. The ground floor also benefits from a bedroom with an en‑suite bathroom, providing an ideal guest suite. This private arrangement ensures comfort and independence for visitors, making it a valuable addition to the home’s versatile layout. The first-floor hosts four further bedrooms, one of which is currently utilised as a home office, offering a peaceful and productive workspace with views over the open countryside.  Each room enjoys its own character, but the principal suite is undoubtedly the showstopper — a truly luxurious retreat designed with exceptional attention to detail. This stunning main bedroom is thoughtfully arranged into three distinct areas: the bedroom, the dressing room, and the en‑suite bathroom.  The bedroom itself enjoys a beautiful aspect to the rear, with French doors opening onto a private terrace — an idyllic spot for morning coffee while admiring the uninterrupted countryside views. The dressing room is a genuine ‘wow factor’. Bespoke cabinetry provides an abundance of beautifully crafted storage, leading into a dedicated dressing area complete with an elegant dressing table, refined seating, and glazed patio doors that enhance the sense of space and light.  This suite has been designed to feel indulgent, serene, and effortlessly functional. The en‑suite bathroom is equally impressive, finished with a luxury white suite and enjoying views to the rear. Together, these spaces form a master suite of exceptional quality — a private haven within the home. Two further bedrooms on this floor benefit from their own luxury en‑suite facilities, each offering generous proportions and excellent storage.  These rooms provide comfort and independence for family members or guests, reinforcing the home’s versatility and executive appeal. Beyond the main residence, The Lodge offers something genuinely extraordinary — a summer house that is far more than the typical garden retreat.  This is a space with its own identity, its own atmosphere, and its own sense of occasion.  It feels like a haven away from the home, a place to escape, unwind, entertain, or work in complete tranquillity. This remarkable building is inviting all year round, centred around a charming log burner that brings warmth and ambience through every season.  Whether hosting a dinner party and retiring here afterwards for drinks, conversation and relaxation, or simply enjoying a quiet evening with the fire glowing, the summer house offers a lifestyle that feels indulgent and deeply private. A self‑contained kitchenette adds practicality and convenience, allowing the space to function beautifully for entertaining or extended use.  It’s easy to imagine long summer evenings with the doors open to the countryside, or cosy winter nights with the log burner lit — a versatile, atmospheric space that enhances the property in a way few homes can offer. In addition, the summer house includes a separate gym, which provides excellent flexibility.  This room could easily serve as an alternative home office, creating a true “away‑from‑home” work sanctuary — a peaceful, detached environment ideal for focused working, creative thinking, or professional privacy. This entire building is a standout feature of The Lodge. It is special, unique, and unquestionably valuable — a rare addition that elevates the property’s lifestyle offering and provides exceptional versatility for modern living.  Whether used for entertaining, wellness, work, or relaxation, the summer house is a space that enriches daily life and sets The Lodge apart as a home of genuine distinction. The Lodge sits within a generous plot of just over half an acre, surrounded by perfectly manicured, landscaped gardens that blend effortlessly into the rolling open countryside beyond.  The result is a setting of remarkable tranquillity, where every window from the rear aspect frames a view of green hills, and every outdoor space feels private, peaceful and beautifully connected to nature. The grounds have been thoughtfully designed to complement the home, offering expansive lawns, mature planting and multiple areas to relax, entertain or simply enjoy the serenity of the surroundings.  The sense of space is exceptional, and the privacy — enhanced by the property’s position along a private lane — is one of its most defining features. Practicality is equally well catered for. The Lodge benefits from an integrated double garage, accessible internally from the house, providing secure parking and excellent storage.  In addition, the property offers a generous amount of gated driveway parking, comfortably accommodating several vehicles and ensuring convenience for both residents and guests. Together, the gardens, garaging and extensive parking complete the picture of a home that is not only architecturally impressive and beautifully appointed, but also perfectly situated within its landscape — a rare sanctuary offering space, privacy and an exceptional lifestyle.

Contemporary house with garden and terrace Beckingham (United Kingdom)

Woodgate Barn is an exceptional conversion of former farm buildings, combining original character with contemporary finishes and an impressive range of eco features. Offering just under 4,400 sq ft (STS) of accommodation, the house has been finished with considerable attention to detail, retaining original materials wherever possible and complemented by bespoke joinery, quality flooring, and carefully chosen finishes. Inside, the main living areas combine character with real wow factor. The bespoke kitchen flows into a dramatic double-height living space with exposed timbers and a striking spiral staircase rising to a galleried landing. A substantial main reception room has a similarly impressive sense of scale, with a vaulted ceiling, full-height glazing and an inglenook fireplace with a wood burner, with generous space for dining or a large games table. The five/six double bedrooms include a spacious principal suite with a vaulted ceiling, exposed beams and a Juliet balcony overlooking the surrounding countryside. Outside, the former barn buildings frame an expansive lawned garden and terrace, with open countryside beyond, creating an outstanding sense of privacy and tranquillity. A large workshop offers scope for leisure or business use, or potential conversion to a separate annexe, subject to planning. A newly built triple garage has 3x10ft Horman electric doors and generous driveway provide ample parking. Despite its peaceful rural setting, Woodgate Barn is only six miles from the market town of Newark, which offers excellent road links and fast rail services to London. Seller Insights We converted the barn buildings into a family home in 2010. Our vision was to create a farmstead in the country – somewhere we could raise our children and enjoy time with family and friends, surrounded by beautiful countryside. We worked with an excellent local builder to bring that vision to life. A great deal of thought and investment went into achieving a high-quality finish throughout, from the bespoke kitchen and flooring to the oak doors and joinery. Sustainability was also very important to us, so we've installed solar panels, rainwater harvesting and a new air-source heat pump, which makes the house incredibly economical to heat. The barn is also very well insulated, so it stays wonderfully cosy through the winter. At the same time, we've retained original features wherever possible, including the timbers – some of which are more than 200 years old. The house has a spacious feel, which has been ideal for both family life and entertaining. The main reception room is a fantastic place to play pool, entertain friends or simply relax in front of the fire. It opens directly onto the garden, where there's plenty of room for children to run around, play football or throw a frisbee, as well as for al fresco dining and parties. We've hosted many celebrations here, including a special birthday celebration with more than 100 guests, but it works just as well for smaller gatherings. With most of the accommodation on the ground floor, the layout works particularly well for families and could also suit multigenerational living. All the bedrooms have lovely views, while the lawns outside are secure for children and pets. The house is ready to move into, but there's also plenty of scope for the new owners to make it their own and develop it further. The workshop, for example, could work equally well as a gym or home office, or potentially be converted into separate accommodation, subject to planning. What we particularly love about the location is the combination of privacy and connectivity. You're surrounded by countryside, yet Newark station is within easy reach, with London just over an hour away by train and excellent road connections across the region and beyond.
