Northend Court represents a rare opportunity to acquire a home of exceptional character and versatility within a truly idyllic setting.

SELLERS INSIGHT “We have been incredibly fortunate to call Parklands home for more than thirty years, and it has truly been the most wonderful place to bring up our family. When we first arrived, we knew immediately that it was somewhere special — a house full of character, surrounded by beautiful grounds, and set in a landscape that feels endlessly inspiring. It quickly became our dream home. Our children have grown up here and absolutely flourished in this setting. There is something magical about living somewhere like this — the freedom of the gardens, the sense of adventure in the grounds, and the ever-changing landscape beyond. It offers everything you could hope for from a countryside home, and it has provided the backdrop to so many cherished memories as a family. One of the things we have loved most is the location. Lustleigh is such a special place and increasingly rare to find these days. There is a genuine sense of community in the village, and it’s something we’ve always valued enormously. Being able to walk into the village in just five or ten minutes has been a real joy — whether for the shop, meeting friends, or village events — yet when you return to Parklands, you feel completely removed from everything, as though you are a million miles away. The views are something we will miss deeply. Every window frames a different outlook across the gardens, trees and surrounding countryside. The landscape constantly changes — with the seasons, the light and even throughout the day — so there is always something beautiful to look at. Parklands has become such a part of us and our lives that it will always hold a very special place in our hearts. However, the time has come for a new chapter, and we hope another family will come here and start creating their own memories. We certainly know that we will never forget a single day of living here.” STEP INSIDE An original timber door leads into a practical sun/boot room with stone paved floor — an appropriate prelude to a house so intrinsically connected to its landscape. The hallway branches off to the ground floor accommodation. The principal drawing room enjoys French doors opening directly onto the terrace and gardens, alongside an open fire that creates a natural focal point. A generous sitting room with bay window and log burner provides a second, equally inviting reception space. Across the hall lies a more intimate snug with wood burner and a library area — ideal as a reading retreat or creative space. At the heart of this family home is the impressive kitchen/dining room: a substantial, sociable space designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is fitted with solid wooden units with a central island and four-oven AGA which anchors the room. Integrated appliances offer a clean finish. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining space and across to the sitting area with French doors that open onto the terrace, framing far-reaching views across the outstanding Dartmoor countryside. A rear lobby provides a useful alternative entrance from the driveway, ideal for practicalities such as bringing in groceries. A staircase leads down to a highly practical basement level, which feels nothing like a basement. It comprising a family room with natural light, utility/laundry room, wine cellar, extensive storage and a WC — perfectly suited to the rhythms of country living. Completing the ground floor is a spacious cloakroom. An ornate wooden staircase rises from the main hall to the first floor landing, a spacious area well-lit stemming to five well-proportioned bedrooms and two bathrooms providing excellent family accommodation, all with incredible views. The second floor offers two further characterful bedrooms and a shower room, together with generous eaves storage, lending flexibility for guests, multi-generational living or dedicated home working. STEP OUTSIDE If the house is impressive, the grounds are truly exceptional. Totalling 9 acres, extending around the property in a series of mature, landscaped areas, they provide an idyllic and entirely private setting. Sweeping lawns are punctuated by magnificent granite boulders — including the striking Parklands Tor — and interspersed with specimen trees, spring bulbs and an abundance of camellia, azalea and rhododendron. The land encompasses formal gardens, a paddock, parkland and areas of woodland, offering both beauty and biodiversity in equal measure. A charming collection of ancillary buildings enhances the estate’s appeal: a thatched garage block, thatched stables and a delightful timber summerhouse. For leisure, there is a hard tennis court complete with a thatched pavilion — a quintessentially English feature within a Dartmoor landscape. The private drive continues beyond the house to provide a secondary exit onto Hammerslake Road — a practical advantage rarely found in such secluded settings.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

LOCALITY Cosby LE9 Cosby is a sought-after village advantageously situated in the south of Leicestershire, benefitting from all the merits of its countryside location while also being close to motorway and rail networks that crisscross the country. Administered by the Blaby District Council, larger towns nearby include Whetstone, Blaby, Wigston and Oadby. It is only 7 miles from Leicester’s city centre, with its multi-cultural restaurants, theatres, museums, galleries, rich retail selection and attractions such as the King Richard III exhibition. From Cosby the M 1 can be reached at junction 21, to the south near to Lutterworth and junction 20. The A426 is the main through road to Lutterworth, with train stations at Rugby for links to Birmingham and Narborough for links to Leicester, with trains running regularly to London St Pancras International. 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.
