Contemporary house with garden and terrace Cosby (United Kingdom)

Notably contemporary Located within the south Leicestershire village of Cosby, this house sitting on a third of an acre of ground, has been redesigned to maximise its potential. Containing over 3,000 square feet of interior space, it easily fulfils contemporary expectations for a bespoke executive property. Originally constructed during the 1940s, it has been the project of the present homeowner for ten years, with a complete renovation and extension beginning in October 2020 and a total rewiring in 2023. The resulting transformation is an outstanding detached house that along with many other features, provides three reception rooms, a spacious kitchen and breakfast diner, and a ground floor guest suite with five large double bedrooms across the first floor. Established residential area The house is located within a quiet residential area of similarly unique, characterful properties and benefits from little traffic by being atop a cul de sac. Kerb appeal is immediate. It is fronted by an open plan arrangement of paving, discreet planting and a wide drive that winds to the front and side. It is undoubtably a statement property. Characterful features include an intersecting and overlaid hip and valley roof, with dormer windows and an impressive apex window. Anthracite window frames and white rendered walls create expectations of a modern interior, as everything about the exterior-including the new roof complete with replacement fascia, soffits and guttering- establishes the impression of sharp, clean structural lines. This is enforced by the symmetry of the open weather porch, shielding a composite front door, and matched with a pair of translucent glass panels. Vehicular access is unhindered and there is ample parking. An integral single garage is immediately to the right of the property and access to the main house can be gained from here, through a downstairs washroom. The garage is equipped with overhead lighting, a store cupboard and power. The tour of the ground floor The house has been totally renovated and enlarged to prioritise light, airiness and space. From the first step across the threshold, the interior structural elements and decoration speak of an intrinsic simplicity and beauty through the choice of textures, fixtures and fittings. This is a generous property that reflects minimalism, great design and decisions made with high quality as standard. The residence is in every way, uncluttered. Unhindered lines of sight and a neutral colour palette, provide an interior décor that is the blueprint for free flow contemporary living, and the central point of convergence, is the entrance hall. The hall’s stunning apex window and vaulted ceiling is a major feature. It adds warmth, light and a volume of overhead space that encourages the visitor to look upwards to appreciate the white balustraded, carpeted staircase and gallery. This executive home has been renovated with an exacting level of detail and attention to the fixtures and fittings. The property is coordinated throughout with matching doors, skirting boards, switches and LED ambient lighting. Fitted blinds cover most windows and most can be operated with a remote control. In the hall there are deep set windows on each side of the entrance. Optimised open plan living The open plan kitchen diner is to the right and measures nearly a third of the internal downstairs area. Covered in large porcelain floor tiles, it is an extensive light-filled room with dual aspects, and incorporates many stylish features, seamlessly running from one purposed space to another. Beginning with the breakfast room, the window has a front aspect. It is presently used as an informal sitting area but however it is used, it is within sight and easy conversation of those in the kitchen. The versatility of this space is an asset. Beyond, the kitchen is amply fitted with soft closing wall and floor non-handle units, an expanse of work top across one wall and a central island with sink and three built in USB points. A large lantern sky light allows light to flood into the food preparation area and onto the integrated appliances including a microwave cooker, separate AEG oven, food warming drawer, wine coolers, a fridge freezer, an induction hob with extraction and a Quooker tap. Two large, fitted pullout waste drawers, a dishwasher, plus large under counter storage cupboards, complete the fully fitted kitchen which was recently installed in 2023. The central island, also houses room for stools, and who would not want to sit in such a wonderful room and admire the views through the bi-folding doors? They fold back to allow the raised terrace to become an extension of the room. This is ideal for entertaining and provides immediate access to the landscaped, private garden. A landscaped garden The garden is a continuation of the open plan scheme. It is a secluded, well-maintained garden and incorporates terracing, shrubbery, planted beds, hedges and trees. A sheltered summer house and green house with raised beds provide interest for keen gardeners, while a large, grassed area is perfect for children to play safely. It is by clever and practical design that these lovely outdoor areas are seamlessly linked to optimise space for maximum functionality, whether for everyday living or those special entertaining occasions. Reception rooms The pantry and utility room are to the right of the kitchen. With additional storage, work top and sink, space is available for a washing machine and vented tumble drier. The utility room has access to the garden and is next door to a room presently used as a study. It has two windows looking into the rear garden. Leaving this room and walking back into the kitchen, a boot room is discreetly located in the hall and then a hallway links the remaining ground floor reception rooms and guest suite. Both reception rooms are spacious, easily cater for different arrangements of furniture and have patio doors opening to the terrace. The sitting room is particularly bright, as it also has two large picture windows. It is carpeted and fitted with coordinating blinds and curtains. Likewise, the lounge has curtains. This room has a wood effect laminate flooring and a large fireplace, displaying a slate hearth, oak mantel and black gas fire. The reception rooms share an internal window. The guest suite and first floor bedrooms Before ascending to the first floor, the ground floor has a valuable asset that has yet to be investigated. A large, carpeted bedroom, with separate bathroom. These en-suite facilities consist of a walk-in shower, toilet, bidet, sink unit and stand-alone roll top bath. It is perfectly private as a guest suite or for a member of the family requiring ground floor accommodation.

Here there are five double bedrooms, a study and family bathroom. The rooms have television and power points and three of the largest, private en-suites consisting of walk-in showers, toilets and vanity units.

East Midlands Airport (EMB) and Birmingham Airport (BHX) are the closest airports. Cosby or ‘Cassebi’ was first recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 but given that the Fosse Way bounds the parish to the north, it may well have been a settlement in earlier times, having a notable stream running through it. St Michael’s and All Angels parish church dates from the fourteenth century and the village centre has a selection of buildings including a cruck-framed barn, that combine to mark the centuries that have passed, including the present development of homes. The original settlement from the was based around the open fields system of agriculture predating the Norman Conquest. In 1767 the Enclosure Act forced the predominantly farming community to become invested with industrial economics, namely framework knitting, and then boot and shoe manufacture. Today, the bustling village has a summer Yarn Bomb event that recalls its heritage links and brings many visitors. Although it has existed for centuries, this large village continues to appeal to the community through a wide selection of sport, education and leisure amenities, including an array of shops, a library, cafes (including a popular fish and chip shop) and parks and Golf course.

Accessed via a double-gated private driveway, with electric gates and intercom to the front, the home immediately conveys a sense of arrival, privacy and quiet grandeur. Set behind mature trees, sweeping driveway space and landscaped grounds, the property is an extraordinary family residence with approximately 16,839 sq ft of accommodation, extensive garaging, workshops and outbuildings. The home is arranged in distinct wings, making it particularly well suited to large families, multi-generational living, entertaining and those seeking a lifestyle property of true substance. The property is a genuinely rare fusion of two distinct architectural chapters: a beautifully designed contemporary wing, conceived and built by the current owners circa 1995, wrapped harmoniously around a Grade II Listed rear wing — formerly Knighton Grange Farm — whose original stone and character lend this home a depth and provenance that no new build could ever replicate. Together, they form a seamless whole: a private estate of extraordinary scale, sophistication, and soul. The Main Entrance & Central Hall Entry is through a grand front door of real presence — a fitting introduction to everything that follows. The house opens into a magnificent entrance hallway, where marble flooring with underfloor heating creates an immediate feeling of elegance.

Ashcroft represents a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully renovated detached home occupying an elevated position on the outskirts of the highly regarded village of Repton. Whilst the quality of the refurbishment is immediately apparent, it is the combination of a turnkey village home and approximately 2.25 acres of adjoining paddock land that truly sets Ashcroft apart. Properties offering adjoining land within such close proximity to Repton are seldom available, creating a unique lifestyle opportunity for purchasers seeking space, privacy and a direct connection to the surrounding countryside without compromising on convenience. The result is a property that successfully combines modern living, extensive outside space and genuine lifestyle versatility in a way that is increasingly difficult to find within today's market. The accommodation is thoughtfully arranged and includes a welcoming reception hallway, spacious living room with wood-burning stove, superb breakfast kitchen with central island, large utility and boot room, principal bedroom with contemporary en-suite, two further bedrooms, a stylish family bathroom, gym and a versatile study/store room.

At the heart of the property is a beautifully appointed breakfast kitchen, thoughtfully designed around a central island and providing an excellent space for both everyday family life and entertaining. Complementing the kitchen is a substantial utility and boot room offering excellent practical storage and additional workspace. The living room is a warm and inviting space centred around a feature wood-burning stove, creating a wonderful focal point for the room. Large windows draw natural light into the accommodation whilst framing attractive views across the gardens and surrounding landscape. The principal bedroom suite has been superbly upgraded and enjoys the benefit of a stylish en-suite shower room. Two further bedrooms are served by a contemporary family bathroom finished to an excellent standard. A particular feature of the home is its flexibility, with additional rooms currently utilised as a gym and study/storeroom. These versatile spaces offer excellent scope for home working, hobbies, fitness or additional accommodation depending upon individual requirements. Throughout the property, the extensive renovation programme has created a home that combines modern comforts with practical living, allowing purchasers to move straight in and immediately enjoy everything Ashcroft has to offer. Outside: Ashcroft enjoys the rare advantage of two separate driveway areas, beginning with an initial driveway to the front aspect which serves a private lawned garden and terrace patio, creating an attractive approach to the home. To the rear aspect, an electrically operated gate provides access to an extensive resin driveway, offering substantial parking for numerous vehicles whilst creating a secure and impressive arrival point. The rear gardens have been thoughtfully designed with ease of maintenance in mind whilst providing a variety of spaces for relaxation and entertaining. Two generous terrace patios create ideal areas for outdoor dining and social gatherings, one of which incorporates a charming BBQ hut, allowing the space to be enjoyed throughout the year. A low-maintenance artificial lawn forms the centrepiece of the rear garden, complemented by a greenhouse and productive vegetable garden area, creating an appealing balance between practicality and outdoor enjoyment. To the side of the property, a further artificial lawned garden continues the theme of attractive yet easily managed outside space. Positioned within the grounds is a superb garden room with decked seating area, offering excellent versatility as a home office, studio, gym, leisure room or peaceful retreat overlooking the gardens.

Location: Ashcroft occupies an enviable position on the outskirts of Repton, one of South Derbyshire's most desirable villages.
