Contemporary house with garden and terrace Derby (United Kingdom)

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. Outside, the property continues to impress with extensive parking, landscaped gardens, a charming BBQ hut, garden room/home office and adjoining paddock land extending to approximately 2.25 acres. The combination of a fully renovated home, generous outside space and land creates a package that is becoming increasingly difficult to find within one of South Derbyshire's most sought-after locations. Accommodation: The property is approached via an entrance porch which opens into a welcoming reception hallway, setting the tone for the quality and presentation found throughout the home. 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. Accessed directly from the resin driveway via a gated entrance, the adjoining paddock extends to approximately 2.25 acres and represents an increasingly rare opportunity within such a sought-after village setting. Whether utilised for equestrian interests, recreational pursuits or simply enjoyed as a beautiful extension of the property's grounds, the land provides a lifestyle offering seldom available on the outskirts of Repton. The result is an increasingly difficult package to find — a beautifully renovated home, landscaped gardens, extensive secure parking, versatile ancillary accommodation and approximately 2.25 acres of adjoining land, all occupying an elevated position on the outskirts of one of South Derbyshire's most desirable villages. Location: Ashcroft occupies an enviable position on the outskirts of Repton, one of South Derbyshire's most desirable villages. Whilst the village itself is renowned for its amenities and the internationally renowned Repton School, opportunities to acquire a home with adjoining paddock land are exceptionally rare, making Ashcroft a particularly compelling proposition. The village offers an excellent range of amenities including a primary school, village store, butchers, cafés, public houses, restaurants, village hall and church, creating a thriving community atmosphere that continues to attract families and professionals alike. The surrounding countryside provides an abundance of walking, cycling and outdoor pursuits, whilst nearby attractions include Calke Abbey, Foremark Reservoir and Staunton Harold Reservoir.

Contemporary house with garden and terrace Keswick (United Kingdom)

HillCrest22 The Heads, Keswick, Lake District National Park A Rare lifestyle and hospitality opportunity in one of the Lake District’s most iconic settings. HillCrest22 is a family run guesthouse in Keswick. With its eight en-suite rooms, and separate manager accommodation, it provides a haven for relaxation in the heart of the Lake District. With panoramic uninterrupted views over Derwentwater to the head of Borrowdale, HillCrest22 is ideally situated, with 22 of the ‘Wainwright’s fells’ visible from the guesthouse. The size, layout and versatility of the accommodation mean the property would also make a superb family home.  Positioned in the prestigious area ‘The Heads’ in Keswick, HillCrest22 is an exceptional Victorian guesthouse that effortlessly blends heritage, contemporary Scandinavian-inspired design, and commercial opportunity. Originally constructed in 1887 by the then Lord of the Manor, Reginald Dykes Marshall, the property has been sympathetically transformed into one of Keswick’s most stylish and highly regarded guesthouses. Behind the handsome period façade lies an interior carefully curated by an acclaimed Danish architectural practice. Traditional craftsmanship and original Victorian character have been thoughtfully combined with clean contemporary styling, natural materials, and premium finishes throughout. Currently operating as a successful and well-established hospitality business, HillCrest22 presents a rare opportunity to acquire an award-worthy lifestyle property in arguably one of the finest positions within the Lake District National Park.   Accommodation  Entrance & Reception Areas A traditional entrance porch immediately sets the tone, featuring striking Victorian geometric tiled flooring and beautiful stained-glass windows. Beyond, the welcoming reception hall showcases one of the property’s defining design features — an impressive glass wall and bespoke glazed doors which allow natural light to flow effortlessly through the building while subtly separating the dining and reception spaces. Throughout the property there is a remarkable cohesion between old and new. Original features sit comfortably alongside Scandinavian influences, creating interiors that feel both luxurious and understated.   Dining Room Positioned at the front of the property, the dining room enjoys an elevated bay window with spectacular panoramic views across the parkland towards Cat Bells and the surrounding Lakeland fells. This elegant space combines warmth and sophistication, centred around a modern log-burning stove set within a beautiful marble fireplace. A second decorative fireplace enhances the symmetry and character of the room, while decorative chandeliers add refinement and atmosphere. Particularly noteworthy is the flooring — solid Dinesen Douglas Fir laid in single continuous lengths, creating an exceptional sense of quality and craftsmanship. Underfloor heating provides additional comfort beneath.   Kitchen & Service Areas A glazed door leads into the kitchen, where minimalist Scandinavian styling meets practical commercial functionality. Stainless steel worktops and cabinetry provide generous preparation space and durability, while maintaining the clean architectural aesthetic seen throughout the property. The kitchen is centred around an impressive double-width Rangemaster featuring: * Five induction hobs * Twin ovens * Separate grill * Warming drawer   To the rear sits a substantial pantry and washing-up area fitted with a commercial-grade dishwasher, large stainless-steel sink, and industrial rinse head. Beautiful slate flooring offers both practicality and a premium finish, while a large sash window fills the space with natural light and overlooks the rear courtyard. Underfloor heating continues throughout.   Ground Floor Facilities Further along the rear corridor is a guest bathroom complete with bath and shower over, ideal for walkers returning from the surrounding fells. Beyond this is a generous laundry and drying room, perfectly suited for outdoor equipment, walking boots, and cycling gear.   This area also benefits from:  * Additional WC * Three substantial storage cupboards * External access to the rear courtyard   Lower Ground Floor HillCrest22 benefits from a highly versatile lower ground floor level, accessed internally from the main hall but also benefitting from its own independent external entrance. Currently arranged as an office and conference suite, this flexible space offers excellent potential for private meetings, wellness uses, events, or additional commercial income streams. Guest Accommodation The upper floors provide eight beautifully appointed double guest bedrooms, each with its own luxurious en-suite bathroom. The front-facing rooms are truly exceptional, commanding uninterrupted panoramic views across Derwentwater and towards some of the Lake District’s most iconic fells, including Cat Bells, Grisedale Pike and Walla Crag. The elevated position means the outlook only improves further on the upper levels. Every bedroom has been individually crafted using bespoke joinery by local craftsmen, with interiors designed around natural textures, calming pastel tones, and high-quality materials. Larch flooring, high ceilings, and original coving combine to create peaceful and refined spaces. The en-suite bathrooms are finished to an exceptional standard, featuring:  * Carrara marble tiling * Underfloor heating * Heated shower tray areas * Recessed frameless glass shower screens * Whole-house ventilation system for moisture control without noisy extractor fans The overall finish throughout the accommodation is of a standard rarely seen within the guesthouse market.   The Self-Contained Apartment To the rear of the property is a superb one-bedroom self-contained apartment, ideal as manager’s accommodation or an additional income-producing holiday let. Designed in an upside-down configuration, the apartment provides: Ground Floor * Double bedroom * Contemporary shower room with slate tiling   First Floor * Open-plan kitchen, dining and living area * Log-burning stove * Vaulted ceilings with Velux rooflights * Large pantry/storage room   The apartment benefits from:  * Underfloor heating throughout * Independent combi boiler   Outside Externally, HillCrest22 enjoys beautifully landscaped south-facing gardens bordered by traditional slate walls and pathways.

To the rear is a private courtyard and parking area suitable for approximately three vehicles.   Location – The Heads, Keswick HillCrest22 occupies one of Keswick’s most desirable and peaceful positions. The Heads is renowned for its elevated outlook, tranquillity, and immediate access to the natural beauty that defines the Lake District National Park. Despite being only a short and pleasant walk from Keswick town centre, the setting feels remarkably private and immersed in nature. From the principal rooms, the outlook is almost entirely uninterrupted greenery, mature trees, Lakeland fells, and Derwentwater itself. In fact, only two buildings are visible from many of the windows — the Theatre by the Lake and a distant farmhouse — preserving an exceptionally natural and unspoilt panorama rarely found so close to town amenities. Keswick itself remains one of the Lake District’s most vibrant and sought-after towns, offering an excellent range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants, pubs, galleries and outdoor facilities. The area is internationally renowned for walking, cycling, climbing and water sports, with direct access to some of the region’s most famous Wainwrights and landscapes straight from the doorstep. This is a location that delivers both peace and convenience in equal measure.   The Business HillCrest22 was acquired by the current owners in 2010, with an extensive back-to-brick renovation undertaken over the following three years. The scale of works included: * Complete rewiring * New plumbing systems * New plasterwork * Replacement windows * Full interior redesign The business officially opened in 2013 and has since established itself as a highly regarded and successful family-run guesthouse with a loyal customer base and strong reputation.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a home of such character, scale and setting, where period charm and modern comfort exist in perfect harmony. Seller Insight 5 Maltings Lane has been our home for the past 12 years. At the time, our children were still young and I was heavily pregnant with our third, so finding somewhere that felt safe, calm and full of good energy was so important. What truly sold it to me was the privacy - it's tucked away, quiet and unassuming, with only a handful of houses. Unless you live here, there's simply no reason to pass through, which gives it such a secure and peaceful feel. Over the years, we have lovingly modernised the house to suit our tastes, including updating the bathrooms. The master bedroom is a real sanctuary, with double aspect views over the garden, it's such a peaceful way to start each day. My favourite room in the house has always been the kitchen. It's incredibly spacious, opens up beautifully, and has been the heart of so many gatherings. It's perfect for entertaining, with the aga making it especially cosy in the winter months. In the summer, the garden truly comes into its own. Set across around half an acre and thoughtfully divided into four sections, it offers something for everyone. From the large patio with shaded areas, to the swimming pool, which has brought endless joy to our children over the years. Beyond that, there's an open lawn with a treehouse and trampoline, creating a great space for family life. This home has been made for entertaining. The generous room sizes and natural flow make hosting effortless. The kitchen leads into a snug where guests can relax, while the dining space has hosted countless Christmases, it's one of those homes where people naturally come together. There's a real village feel here, with a well-used village hall, a cricket club, and a wonderful primary school nearby. We've loved being able to cycle to local spots, enjoy the nearby pub, visit the working windmill, and take in the beautiful surrounding walks. What I will miss most is the way this home brings people together. The entertaining spaces, the summers around the pool, and the simple joy of the garden - it's all been so special. The pool, in particular, has been a huge part of our family life, enjoyed all year round thanks to being heated, and it's something my children will especially miss.

This enchanting Victorian Swiss-style detached house is steeped in history and locally listed as a ‘building of local architectural and historic interest.’ Idyllically located on the edge of Epping Forest in the Baldwins Hill Conservation area, it was designed by Edmond Egan who was one of Loughton’s most famous architects and it is one of the few such homes still in existence. From the moment you sweep onto the spacious driveway you will be captivated by the picturesque exterior with its steep sloping roof and ornate bargeboards and finials, matching pitched roof original entrance, high chimneystack, multi-pane casement windows and black painted wood walls. The front door opens into the hallway, it is at this stage you realise that, while the outside reflects the charm of a bygone era, internally the property has been renovated and extended to be a stunning contemporary home. It includes a modern family bathroom with a feature brick wall and inset shelves, a bath and separate double shower, an additional shower room, a single bedroom and two double bedrooms. One is dual aspect with French doors to the garden featuring House of Hackey ‘Fern’ wallpaper, while the dual aspect principal bedroom was the sitting room and features an impressive fireplace and the original front entrance that makes an excellent walk in wardrobe. There is also fixed ladder access to a first-floor space that could always be converted into an en-suite bathroom or dressing room with the addition of a spiral staircase, subject to any necessary planning permissions. There is a charming sitting room with windows overlooking the impressive kitchen and dining area with poured concrete flooring, underfloor heating and a modern log burning stove as a focal point.

It was lived in by playwright, writer and actor Ken Campbell until his death in 2008 and this is commemorated by a blue plaque. OFFERED WITH NO ONWARD CHAIN. Seller Insight 'We bought this house as we were charmed by its character and history, and the fact that we had direct access to the forest, as we wanted our young twin daughters to enjoy the delights of the countryside, but we still needed to be near London for work. On the one hand, we can enjoy walks, cycle and horse rides in the forest or stop off at the Foresters or Gardeners Arms pubs for a drink or a meal. Loughton is a charming town with plenty of pubs, restaurants, supermarkets, boutiques and salons as well as specialist shops such as the Ginger Pig butchers and Gail’s bakery. There are also a number of sports clubs and facilities, including the Loughton Leisure Centre with a large indoor swimming pool, while golfing aficionados can play at the Epping golf course of the Hobbs Cross Golf Centre. There is a wide selection of schools in the area, including Staples Road Primary, Hereward Primary and Debden Park High School, as well as good, independent schools. The town is on the London Underground’s Central Line, which can whisk you to Stratford in 20 minutes and Liverpool Street in about half an hour, so it is ideal for commuters wanting to travel to the City or the West End. As far as road travel is concerned, it is only a short distance to the M11 for the M25 as well as access to Stansted, Heathrow and Cambridge.'
