Contemporary house with garden Huntingdon (United Kingdom)

Beautifully refurbished to an exceptional standard, this substantial town house is ideally situated within a ten-minute cycle of the train station and just a short walk from an excellent range of local amenities, including restaurants, pubs and independent shops. Blending period charm with stylish contemporary finishes, this impressive home extends to over 2,000 sq ft of versatile family accommodation and retains a wealth of original features that celebrate its rich heritage. The current owners have thoughtfully transformed the property throughout, creating a home that is both elegant and perfectly suited to modern family living. At the heart of the house is the outstanding kitchen/breakfast room, beautifully designed with bespoke cabinetry, quality integrated appliances and striking bi-fold doors that open directly onto the courtyard garden. Bathed in natural light, this exceptional space provides the perfect setting for everyday family life and entertaining. The ground floor also features an impressive family/dining room extending to more than 33 feet in length, a cosy sitting room with fireplace, a study and a cloakroom. Arranged over three floors, the well-balanced accommodation includes five generously proportioned bedrooms, complemented by beautifully appointed en suite and family bathrooms, offering excellent flexibility for growing families, guests or those working from home. Outside, the private courtyard garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to make the most of both the available space and sunshine, creating a secluded and low-maintenance outdoor retreat with areas for dining, entertaining and relaxation. A garage and separate workshop provide valuable storage and additional practical space. Properties of this calibre rarely become available in such a desirable central location. Combining character, space and exceptional presentation throughout, 14 Old Court Hall presents a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully restored period home in the heart of one of Huntingdonshire's most sought-after market towns. Seller Insight 14 Old Court Hall has been our home for the past six years, and it's been such a special place for us. What first drew me in was the location as much as the house itself. We had come from a small village with just a pub, and suddenly we were somewhere with so much more: excellent schools, a real sense of community, beautiful parks and the river nearby. From the moment we walked through the door, it just felt right. Over the years, we've lovingly modernised the entire house. It hadn't been updated for around 25 years, so we've really maximised every opportunity. One of my favourite features is the dining room wall, where a local artist created a stunning spray-painted piece, taking inspiration from the curtains in the lounge - it's such a talking point. Working in interiors, I've enjoyed bringing in beautiful designer wall coverings and fabrics throughout, adding personality to every room. My favourite space has to be the main bedroom suite. It feels completely separate from the rest of the house, like a peaceful sanctuary. The main bathroom has a real boutique hotel feel, something guests always comment on. Downstairs, the lounge is cosy and welcoming, with a wood burner and bi-fold doors that open straight onto the courtyard. The garden is low-maintenance, private, and beautifully enclosed. Having parking for two cars in front of the garage, and another behind the gates, in the centre of the village is such a bonus too. This home has been perfect for entertaining. We've hosted everything from BBQs to a garden engagement party with a marquee and live singer with around 80 guests. The community here is incredible, and it's a big part of why we love it so much. We are staying local, which says everything about how much this area means to us. There's always something going on if you want to get involved, and everything you need is right on your doorstep, including excellent nurseries, pre-schools, and fantastic primary schools. The great selection of good restaurants and pubs within a 5 minute walk.

Contemporary house with garden and terrace Peterborough (United Kingdom)

Hides Farm is an impressive country home in a wonderfully private rural position on Crowland Common, set within circa three acres and enjoying far-reaching views across the surrounding fenland. Designed and built by the current owners, the house combines the presence of a traditional Georgian-style farmhouse with the comfort and practicality of a much newer home, creating a property of generous proportions, strong individuality and considerable flexibility. The setting is a significant part of its appeal. Positioned at the end of a single track country road, the property has a rare sense of seclusion, with open countryside around it and very little passing traffic. The approach is suitably handsome, with a sweeping gravel driveway leading to the front of the house, lawns and paddock land extending around it, and the stable block and garaging giving the whole property the feel of an established rural home. Although modern in construction, Hides Farm was designed to sit naturally within its setting. The exterior has the balanced symmetry and composed proportions of a traditional farmhouse, with red brick elevations, sash-style windows, a slate roof and carefully chosen detailing. The planning requirements at the time of the build were exacting, with traditional materials and finishes specified to ensure the house had an authentic rural character. This included hardwood windows and doors, black metal rainwater goods, approved brick and mortar colours, English garden wall bond brickwork and detailing intended to reflect the surrounding fenland architecture. The result is a house that feels settled and timeless from the outside, while offering the reassurance and convenience of a contemporary build. Inside, the house has been created as a proper family home, with an emphasis on space, sociability and comfort. The reception hall makes an immediate impression, rising to a galleried landing and giving the house a sense of scale from the moment you step inside. It is a generous, welcoming entrance rather than a purely formal one, with parquet flooring, a broad staircase and enough volume to give the interior real presence. It was also designed with Christmas in mind, with the height and proportions to accommodate a large tree, which says much about the spirit in which the house was created. The interiors are highly individual and full of character. While entirely decorative and therefore easily adapted to suit a new owner, they give the house a memorable personality and a clear sense of having been lived in and enjoyed. Country references, sporting pieces, hat lamps, framed pictures, patterned papers and collected objects appear throughout, creating a look that is confident, playful and personal. This is not a neutral show home, but a house with warmth and identity, and the generous proportions of the rooms provide an excellent backdrop for either bold decoration or a more restrained future scheme. The ground floor is arranged with a clear sense of balance. On either side of the reception hall are two well-proportioned formal reception rooms, each with a fireplace and a pleasing sense of symmetry. The sitting room and drawing room give the house flexibility for family life and entertaining, allowing quieter spaces to sit separately from the more informal kitchen and dining areas to the rear. The kitchen and dining room form the natural heart of the house. Designed as a sociable farmhouse-style space, it has ample room for a large table and is very much a place for gathering, cooking and conversation. The timber cabinetry, range-style cooker, stone flooring and outlook towards the garden all contribute to its relaxed country feel. A pantry sits just off the kitchen, while the adjacent utility room, cloakroom and storage provide the practical support that a house of this scale requires. Opening from the kitchen and dining area, the orangery brings in excellent natural light and gives the rear of the house a strong connection to the garden. With glazed roof lanterns and wide windows, it is a particularly appealing space from which to enjoy the outlook across the grounds. The owners have described watching distant fireworks from here and from the patio, with the fenland skyline lighting up around them, which captures the sense of openness that defines the property. The first floor is arranged around the galleried landing, with four bedrooms and two bathrooms. The principal bedroom is especially generous and has its own en suite shower room, while the remaining bedrooms are served by the family bathroom. The layout is straightforward and well balanced, with rooms of usable proportions rather than awkward secondary spaces. Above, a substantial loft provides further useful storage. One of the important features of Hides Farm is the attached ancillary accommodation. It is not a separate annexe, but it is arranged to offer a degree of independence, with its own living space incorporating a kitchen area on the ground floor, together with a cloakroom, and a bedroom and shower room on the first floor. It also has its own access, parking and garden area. For future owners, it offers valuable flexibility, whether for guests, older children, dependent relatives, working from home or other requirements, subject to any necessary consents or arrangements. The external space is equally important to the way the property works. The grounds extend to circa three acres and include lawns, paddock areas, a stable block and a triple garage. The stable block comprises stabling, a hay barn and a tack room, reflecting the fact that the land was originally chosen with horses in mind. Over the years, the stables and outside space have also accommodated a variety of other animals, giving the property a genuine rural quality rather than the feel of land kept only for appearance. The gardens and paddocks provide space on a generous scale. They have been used for large family gatherings, celebrations and outdoor entertaining, with plenty of room for guests to spill outside. A full-size pizza oven, housed to the rear of one of the garages, adds another sociable feature and is to remain with the property. The broad terrace to the rear of the house creates a natural setting for outdoor dining and seating, with the house, garden and open views working together extremely well. Despite its rural feel, Hides Farm is not remote from day-to-day amenities. Crowland is only a short drive away, with Market Deeping, Spalding and Peterborough also accessible. Peterborough is particularly useful for commuters, offering wider road and rail connections while allowing home life to remain peaceful and distinctly rural. The position may also be of interest to families considering schooling in Spalding, Peterborough or at Wisbech Grammar. For everyday convenience, the owners have also found that supermarket deliveries make the setting entirely practical. The sense of peace is one of the property’s defining qualities. The road does not carry general through traffic, and the surrounding footpaths and fields reinforce the feeling of space and calm. It is the kind of setting that offers the rewards of rural living in their truest form: quiet, openness, birdsong, big skies and the ability to step outside and feel immediately removed from the rush of everyday life. What makes Hides Farm particularly appealing is the combination of substance and personality. It has the scale and flexibility expected of a substantial country home, with four bedrooms in the main house, attached ancillary accommodation, generous reception space, garaging, stabling and land. Yet it also has a story and character that distinguish it from more conventional modern houses. It was built as a long-term family home and has been shaped with care, humour and affection over the years. For the next owners, it offers a rare opportunity: a modern country house with traditional presence, land and outbuildings, strong rural privacy and adaptable accommodation, all within reach of local centres and Peterborough. Hides Farm is individual without being impractical, rural without being inaccessible, and substantial without losing its warmth. It is a house made for family life, animals, gatherings, quiet mornings, big views and the particular pleasure of being somewhere that feels entirely its own.   Disclaimer: These property details, whilst believed to be accurate, are set out as a general outline only for guidance and do not constitute any part of an offer or contract.

Contemporary house with garden and terrace Shearsby (United Kingdom)

Yew Tree House presents as an attractive, well-built cottage from the kerb side on Fenny Lane. It is certainly that but so, so much more. Dating from the 1700’s, it was originally a farmhouse until the present owners in 2013 realised its potential. With a vision to create a home suited for its rural location and contemporarily equipped for the future, they extended and modernised the entire property, the result is a prestigious, bespoke four bedroom house in a prime location. The property is directly approached from the road and has a block paved drive at the side leading to double wooden gates. A car could be parked here but beyond the gates the drive becomes gravelled and leads to a double garage where there is ample room for turning and parking multiple vehicles. Fencing, mature shrubbery, hedging and native trees provide seclusion and privacy surrounding a landscaped garden to the rear of the house. Yew Tree House and grounds are deceptively large and while certainly appealing from initial observation, it is only when entered and explored that the size and beautiful interior can be fully appreciated: it is a surprise for all the right reasons. Roof tops and chimney stacks The house is traditionally built with red brick walls, rustic chimney stacks, cross gabled roofs and contemporary window frames. Within the oak and glass portico, there is an oak seat and the thresholds have been kept and reused from the original farmhouse. Slate floors are used throughout, including the patio outside the living room. Yew Tree House is built on two levels and has a cellar. There are presently four bedrooms – two with ensuite- a large bathroom, two reception rooms, a separate shower room and a generous open plan kitchen/ dinning/ living space. The house is tastefully decorated using coordinated features and materials of the highest specification. It is in a quiet location as Shearsby is reached from a branch road off the main A5199 and avoids through traffic. This is a delightful residence that has been cared for and nurtured to exacting standards and richly benefits from the rural charm of its position. Extended and improved to exacting standards Undeniably, the house is impressively large and individual. On entry into the dining room, cottage features remain and the focal point is the open fire place. The exposed brick chimney and integrated oak shelving compliment the exposed beams overhead and create a room that mingles traditional characteristics with a contemporary style. Light permeates the ground floor ahead, as doorways have been widened and the length of the house can be seen with views of the patio and garden. Here, the benefit of singularly using slate flooring is apparent as it links the areas and the overall impression is of space and a relaxed airiness. Next door, the snug is decorated in a similar style but has a log burner. It retains its door and provides a cosy, private retreat away from the openness of the extended rear parts of the house: a perfect place to read in or watch the television. The hall crosses the house from the shower room to the right and the staircase to the left. The staircase is a bespoke fusion of steel, glass and French oak treads. It appears to float between levels and is cast in light from the thermal translucent glass block wall it rises against. The staircase leads to the cellar beneath the house which is suitable for storage and above to the first floor landing, where a feature beam runs along the width of the house and displays lighting. Directly opposite the staircase, a shower room is fitted with walk in shower, vanity unit and toilet. This enables the snug to be used as a fifth ground floor bedroom with convenient bathing facilities, if required. The bathing facilities throughout Yew Tree House are modern, stylish and well maintained. White suites are complimented with tiling to floors and walls, and high quality fixtures and fittings are standard. A modern living space with a focus on relaxed entertaining Stepping down into the kitchen from the hall, the impressive open plan living space is organised into purposeful zones. The kitchen has an individually designed island for informal dining and a very large lounge area, presently arranged to benefit from a media wall and a wall corner log burner. Floor to ceiling translucent panes of glass along two elevations begin here – the master bedroom suite is immediately above – and full height bifolding doors that open onto a secluded patio area. The central island houses an induction hob, a sink with boiling water tap and waste bin cupboard. A curved Corian worktop provides seating for eight people and a full height wall of cupboards includes a small pantry area. Further worktops permit food preparation and spaces for equipment while integrated appliances such as a fridge freezer and eye level electric oven and steam oven are also included. A wine rack, two large larder cupboards, a double door cupboard for coats and a feature bookcase made from French oak includes two large cutlery drawers and completes the designer kitchen. A separate utility/laundry room is accessed along a glass corridor and provides additional room for grocery or appliance requirements. It is fitted with a sink unit, cupboards and plumbing for a washing machine and condensing tumble dryer. There is a separate toilet and hand basin next door. To the side of the patio outside of the living room, the corridor presents as a wall of glazed glass and hides the rooms within but means that the facilities are within easy reach. This corridor leads to the double garage which is currently used as a gym. It has an alcove suitable for a fridge and freezer, and hooks for coats. Electrically operated garage doors allow its original use to be recommissioned but a single steel side door equally permits other options. To the first floor and views of the garden There are four double, carpeted bedrooms on the first floor. The master suite to the rear, has patio doors opening onto a balcony. This permits views over the sedum roof of the garage/gym and garden beyond. It is a particularly luxurious room and has a vaulted ceiling, a fully glazed gable end and a pair of integrated wardrobes. Its large ensuite has spiralled glass partitioning, a walk in shower, toilet and vanity unit. The bedroom across the landing shares similar views, while bedroom three is to the front. This double aspect room looks to the village green, renowned for its preservation as an original feature of the village landscape and protected by residential ownership to remain unchanged. The remaining fourth bedroom is fitted with integral wardrobes and has an ensuite consisting of walk in shower, toilet and vanity unit. The substantial family bathroom is equipped with a large quadrant shower and corner bath, vanity unit and toilet. As with many aspects of this property, the bathing facilities have been totally renewed, redecorated and accessorised to a high specification providing beautifully designed rooms with white suites, contemporary lighting and pristine tiling. All curtains, light fittings and carpets on all levels are included within the sale of this property. Wander through the garden The garden is another beautiful asset of Yew Tree House. From the roadside it would be difficult to appreciate the length of its plot or the variation of the landscaping included. It is well stocked with herbaceous borders and specimen trees, including a white mulberry, laburnum and many acers. An artificial turf lawn, patios and walk ways have been incorporated, and a bridge leads over a natural pond to the largest southwest facing patio and barbecue area. The dining area looks back to views of the village and there is a hot tub. Beyond this partitioned space, a shaded garden leads to a further vegetable garden with raised beds, a fruit cage, cold frames, a green house and sheds. Location The beautiful village of Shearsby is set in the South Leicestershire countryside approximately 9 miles South of Leicester and equidistance to Lutterworth and the medieval market town of Market Harborough, which both provide extensive facilities and a range of independent boutique shopping, restaurants, bars and hotels as well as supermarkets including a Waitrose. Recreational activities are plentiful for all age groups with nearby golf courses including Ullesthorpe, Lutterworth, Market Harborough, and Kilworth Springs. Situated between the two towns is the innovative Kilworth open-air theatre set under sail-like canopies within the grounds of Kilworth House Hotel. Although protected as a Conservation Area, Shearsby is by no means dormant – it is a lively, active and busy community with the Village Green, the Old School House converted into the village hall, St Mary Magdalene Church and The Chandlers Public House forming the heart of the village. The area boasts an excellent standard of schools, with the local primary schools at both Arnesby and nearby Gilmorton. As well as a good range of state secondary schools in nearby Lutterworth, private schooling is available nearby at Rugby School and Leicester Grammar School (Great Glen).

If leisure and pleasure are top of your list then the separate bar, games room, gym and outdoor entertainment area with a covered hot tub should tick all your boxes. If developing the ‘good life’ interests you, there are existing polytunnels and the large orchard that provides plenty of space for a kitchen garden where you can grow additional fruit and vegetables. If you need separate office facilities or a large workshop there is another spacious detached building that already includes electrics and lighting, so could always be upgraded. Sweeping through a pair of five bar gates onto the spacious front parking area bordered by shrubs and lawn, you are immediately drawn to this veritable Tardis of an attractive whitewashed chalet bungalow with its differing roof lines, dormer windows and attractive slate steps up to the front door. This opens into a porch with access to the beautifully presented and characterful living room with a coved ceiling, engineering oak flooring, a dado rail and a box bay window. There is also a staircase to the first floor, access to the ground floor bedrooms and a superb brick chimney breast with an inglenook style fireplace and a log burner that is just the place to cosy up to on a cool winter’s evening. Multi-pane double doors open into the kitchen with polished porcelain floor tiles that flow through into the dining area.  There is a modern log burner, access to the family bathroom, and the gorgeous light and bright garden room style dining area that has underfloor heating, a lantern skylight and windows on three sides as well as access to the garden. When the windows are slid open you can almost feel you are eating outdoors. The contemporary kitchen includes flat fronted and curved end units, granite worktops and glass splashbacks housing a gas hob, built in double oven and microwave, an integrated fridge freezer and access to the adjacent utility room with laundry facilities. Off one side of the living room there is a double bedroom with attractive Strachan built in bedroom furniture and an ensuite walk-in shower. While on the other side of the property there is a boiler room, the beautiful family bathroom with aqua boarding, a trendy bath and a wet room style shower as well as two double bedrooms. One of the bedrooms includes fitted bedroom furniture and the other has a box bay window with views over the front garden. On the first floor there is a double bedroom that is currently in use as an office, which is ideal if you want to work undisturbed by activities in the rest of the house. There is also the fabulous partially vaulted ceiling main bedroom with stunning views down the valley, additional Velux windows, eaves storage and bespoke cupboards with hidden access to the ensuite shower room. Long driveways on either side of the property provide off road parking and access to the rest of the buildings. These include the charming annexe with an attractive front door that opens directly into the lounge/kitchen/diner with underfloor heating and access to the shower room. The kitchen features a breakfast bar and units housing a gas hob, oven, fridge and washing machine. There is understairs storage and a wood and glass staircase to the first floor where you will find two vaulted ceiling double bedrooms including one with French doors to the rear terrace and entertainment area. There are bi-fold doors to the spacious gym/games room with a bar, fridge and seating area as well as a workshop and a large separate building with a drying room, lighting and electrics that could always be developed as possibly a separate office for anyone who wants to run a business from home. A charming wildlife pond leads to the spacious rear terrace with slate flooring, a covered hot tub and barbecue area as well as plenty of places to relax in the sunshine and enjoy al fresco dining.

Contemporary house with garden and terrace East Harling (United Kingdom)

The current owners were drawn to the house, wanting a large garden with plenty of room for family life and entertaining, but without acres of land to maintain. Since then, they have renovated the house from top to bottom. With substantial accommodation arranged over two floors, five bedrooms and five bathrooms, this is a home of exceptional versatility and presence. Soaring ceilings, ornate coving and an abundance of period detailing combine with beautifully considered modern finishes to create interiors that feel both timeless and thoroughly contemporary. Step Inside Beyond the double entrance doors lies a magnificent central staircase, with generous landings extending to either side and a wonderful feeling of scale throughout. Beautiful, durable flooring provides an elegant yet practical foundation for a home designed equally for grand entertaining and relaxed family life. The triple-aspect living room is a firm favourite with the owners – spacious with high-ceilings, light-filled and sophisticated, yet still warm and cosy, especially in winter with the log fire in the handsome marble fireplace and direct access to the south-west-facing garden. A formal dining room currently repurposed as a games room, could offer the perfect setting for more formal grown up suppers, while a study with two matching bespoke built desks and a quirky reading room provide dedicated spaces for hybrid working, relaxation or quiet retreat. At the heart of the home is the newly fitted kitchen: sleek, stylish and exceptionally well equipped. A substantial central island incorporates the hob and generous drawer storage, with four bar stools creating an informal place to eat, chat and keep the cook company. A wonderful bank of Miele appliances, two ovens, a microwave/steam oven and coffee machine is perfectly suited to entertaining on a grand scale. The cabinetry continues seamlessly into the adjoining utility area, providing extensive storage. The kitchen opens effortlessly into a wonderful garden room, where an exposed brick wall introduces a touch of character. A bar with wine fridge, generous dining area and multiple doors opening onto the garden create an exceptional entertaining space, with an almost seamless transition between house and garden. A useful ground floor bathroom with bath and shower is conveniently positioned, ideal when coming in from gardening, muddy play, or for bathing the dog! Exploring Upstairs The impressive galleried first-floor landing continues the home's remarkable sense of space and grandeur. The expansive landing itself becomes part of the experience: a grand circulation space rather than simply a means of moving between rooms, reinforcing the architectural character found throughout the house. It leads to a wonderful sun terrace which has an external stairway too for ease of access. Four well-appointed bedrooms all with fitted wardrobes, provide generous accommodation, complemented by three ensuite bathrooms and a family bathroom with freestanding bath, television and steam-room shower. The principal bedroom boasts a whole wall of fitted wardrobes plus a superb ensuite, giving a boutique hotel experience. The arrangement offers considerable flexibility and privacy for family living, visiting guests and multi-generational occupation. The reading room on the ground floor leads to a hallway and cloakroom, then stairs to the fifth bedroom above the garage – a wonderfully separate space, fitted with air-conditioning, ideal for adult children living at home or a home office, gym or cinema room even. Step Outside Through electric gates, a sweeping driveway passes the immaculate front lawn and mature trees, creating a graceful approach and an impressive sense of arrival with an in and out circular driveway and beautiful central fountain. A pair of double garages provides excellent parking and storage, complemented by an EV charging point. The property is also solar-ready, with cabling already installed, offering an opportunity for future renewable energy provision. The gardens and grounds provide a wonderful extension to the home's living space, with the south-west-facing aspect creating a particularly attractive setting for summer entertaining and peaceful evenings outdoors. The wraparound terrace is a welcome spot for alfresco entertaining with many a fun barbecue and party enjoyed here. Steps lead to the first-floor sun terrace, a grownups hideout for enjoying the sun with a glass of something cold, offering panoramic views and a fabulous spot to take in the sunrise The grounds are wonderfully private and secluded, bordered by mature trees including apple and pear trees along with established shrubs and predominantly laid to well-maintained lawn It is exceptionally well suited to family life, providing a safe and private environment for children to play, with no overlooking properties and a fabulous corner of the garden is currently given over to play, with a garden shed providing useful storage. The generous grounds offer exciting scope for further leisure facilities, whether a football pitch, tennis court or, subject to the necessary permissions, a swimming pool. On the Doorstep East Harling is a friendly and welcoming village, with a primary school, village hall with sports and social club, village shop & post office, doctor’s surgery and chemist. The Nags Head and The Grain Kitchen both serve fantastic Sunday roasts, and the village also hosts community events, including a well-regarded Bonfire Night, running clubs and tennis facilities. For outdoors enthusiasts you can enjoy walks from your doorstep and Thetford Forest is close by offering an expanse of woodland to explore. How Far Is It To…. Commuting is easy here with the A11 easily accessible offering road links to Norwich and towards London.

Contemporary house with pool and garden Birmingham (United Kingdom)

A truly individual architectural residence, combining exceptional contemporary design, outstanding sustainability credentials and an extraordinary degree of flexibility, set within one of Birmingham's most desirable residential locations. Occupying an enviable position in sought-after Selly Park, this remarkable five-bedroom detached residence represents a rare opportunity to acquire a home conceived and constructed with an uncompromising approach to quality, design and modern living. Thoughtfully designed to provide the ease, accessibility and practicality of a single-storey home whilst incorporating an exceptional breadth of accommodation across three floors, the property is as versatile as it is distinctive. It is a residence that has been carefully considered not simply as a house, but as a home capable of evolving around the changing needs of its occupants. From the moment of arrival, there is a clear sense that this is something quite different from the conventional family home. Behind its private, mature frontage lies an intelligently designed residence where architecture, technology and lifestyle have been carefully integrated. Generous proportions, extensive glazing, considered sightlines and a strong connection with the gardens create a feeling of space and openness throughout, whilst the quality of construction and specification is evident at every turn. At the centre of the home is the impressive family kitchen and dining room, a beautifully designed space that is quite rightly the social heart of the property. Generous in both scale and proportion, the room combines exceptional functionality with a sophisticated contemporary aesthetic, centred around a substantial island and defined by a striking feature wall incorporating a beautiful contemporary gas fire. The result is a room that feels equally suited to relaxed family life, informal gatherings and more substantial entertaining. A traditional-style barn door opens directly onto the courtyard and herb garden, creating an appealing connection between the kitchen and outside space, whilst a walk-in pantry and separate utility room provide the practical support expected of a home of this calibre. From here, the accommodation flows naturally towards the ground-floor bedroom suite and into the property's exceptional family lounge. The family lounge is a particularly unique and versatile space, offering an extraordinary sense of scale and allowing the room to be enjoyed in a number of different ways. Access to a balcony extends the living space outdoors, whilst a large wood-burning stove provides a natural focal point and brings warmth and character to an otherwise contemporary setting. Rather than being arranged around a single function, the room has been thoughtfully configured to create distinct areas for family television and entertainment, larger social gatherings and quieter moments of relaxation or reflection. Multiple seating areas give the room an unusual degree of flexibility, allowing different members of the household to use the space simultaneously without compromising its sense of openness. This intelligent approach to the accommodation continues throughout the property. The home has been designed around the way modern families actually live, providing beautifully appointed private bedroom suites alongside substantial reception and leisure spaces. Different generations, guests and family members can enjoy both independence and connection, whilst the generous accommodation provides equally impressive provision for entertaining, relaxation, fitness, working from home and family life. Particularly noteworthy is the property's ability to function exceptionally well as a bungalow, with two substantial bedroom suites and the principal living accommodation arranged at ground-floor level. Step-free access further enhances this versatility, whilst the upper and lower-ground floors provide an extraordinary amount of additional accommodation rarely found within a property of this nature. The property's environmental credentials are equally impressive. Fully electric and incorporating carefully considered sustainable technology, together with features including a log burner with integrated water-jacket system and electric vehicle charging, the house has been designed with energy efficiency and long-term sustainability firmly in mind. It offers an appealing combination of contemporary luxury and future-focused living without compromising on comfort, character or design. The result is a sophisticated and highly adaptable home that could comfortably accommodate a growing family, multi-generational living, frequent entertaining or those simply seeking an exceptional amount of space within a beautifully designed contemporary residence. Approached via a private paved frontage and sweeping staircase, the property provides generous off-road parking for multiple vehicles, an electric charging point and access to an integral garage. The sense of arrival is impressive, with side pathway and main parking to the front, setting the tone for the exceptional accommodation beyond.

Contemporary house with garden and terrace Witney (United Kingdom)

Set along a quiet no-through lane in the sought-after west Oxfordshire village of Standlake, Lancotta offers four double bedrooms, generous living space and a delightful west-facing garden, with Oxford within easy reach and fast direct rail services from Didcot Parkway to London Paddington. There are houses that have been modernised, and houses where old and new genuinely work together. Lancotta very much belongs in the latter category. Dating from the 17th century, the original house has all the character one would hope to find in a period Oxfordshire home, with Cotswold stone elevations beneath a thatched roof, exposed timbers, fireplaces and wonderfully individual rooms. Yet the house has evolved particularly well for modern family life, most notably through the addition of an impressive kitchen and dining space opening directly onto the garden. This is very much the heart of the house. Generous, light-filled and distinctly contemporary in feel, it provides an excellent contrast to the more intimate rooms of the original building and creates the sort of everyday living and entertaining space that can sometimes be difficult to find in a house of this age. Doors lead directly outside, creating an easy connection with the garden during the warmer months. Elsewhere on the ground floor are two characterful reception rooms, providing flexible spaces for family life, entertaining and working from home, together with the practical accommodation required for day-to-day living. Upstairs are four double bedrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly appealing and has the unusual addition of its own private balcony overlooking the garden; a wonderful spot from which to enjoy the afternoon and evening sun. The remaining bedrooms retain much of the individuality and charm one would expect from a house with more than three centuries of history. Outside, the established garden is private and west-facing, providing excellent afternoon and evening light. The setting is another important part of Lancotta's appeal. Despite being within the village, the house occupies a peaceful position along a no-through lane, giving it a pleasantly tucked-away feel without being isolated. Importantly for a thatched property, the thatch was renewed in May 2025, representing significant recent investment in one of the house's most distinctive features. COUNTRY LIVING WITH EXCELLENT CONNECTIONS Standlake is a thriving west Oxfordshire village surrounded by attractive countryside and close to the River Windrush, with a primary school, village shop, pub, church and an active local community. Witney is approximately five miles away and provides a comprehensive range of shops, restaurants and everyday amenities, while Oxford is also readily accessible. For those needing regular access to the capital, Didcot Parkway provides frequent direct services to London Paddington, with the fastest journeys taking approximately 36 minutes. This makes Lancotta an especially attractive proposition for buyers seeking considerably more space, character and countryside while retaining convenient access to London, with central London accessible within around an hour of leaving the property. It is this combination that makes the property particularly compelling: a genuine 17th-century Oxfordshire village house, full of period character yet successfully adapted for modern life, surrounded by countryside and with both Oxford and London within easy reach.

Contemporary house with garden and terrace Narberth (United Kingdom)

An exceptional architect-designed four-bedroom home where contemporary luxury, renewable technology and the Pembrokeshire coast come together.  Some homes simply occupy their setting; Glenwood feels as though it belongs to it.  Tucked within the sheltered woodland of Pembrokeshire’s beautiful Pleasant Valley, this striking cedar-clad residence tells a story of complete reinvention. The site was once occupied by a post-war Woolaway bungalow, built in 1966 on land historically belonging to the prestigious Picton Castle Estate. In 2016, the original property was comprehensively transformed into the distinctive contemporary home seen today: an architectural residence created to embrace light, landscape and modern, energy-conscious living.  Its glass-led design establishes an immediate connection with the surrounding grounds, while the warmth and texture of the cedar cladding allow the house to settle naturally into its leafy surroundings. Inside, flowing living spaces, carefully considered architectural details and cohesive finishes give the home a strong sense of identity.  This is contemporary design with warmth and personality, a home created not merely to make a statement, but to offer an exceptional way of life.  A Home Designed Around Light and Landscape  Glenwood offers four generously proportioned bedrooms alongside versatile reception and living spaces designed for modern family life and entertaining.  Glazing plays an important role throughout the house, drawing natural light deep into the interior and framing changing views of the mature gardens. Carefully considered architectural details, including the beautifully curved wall within the principal bedroom, introduce softness and individuality, while the cohesive use of tiling creates a sense of continuity between the different areas of the home.  The principal living space is made particularly inviting by a wood-burning stove, bringing warmth and atmosphere during the cooler months. A separate living area provides valuable flexibility, whether used as a quieter sitting room, television room, home office or informal family space.  Although undeniably contemporary, Glenwood never feels stark. Natural materials, woodland views and the relationship between the house and its gardens create a calm and welcoming environment somewhere designed to be lived in and enjoyed throughout every season.  Created for a More Sustainable Future  Glenwood was designed not only for the way people live today, but with the future firmly in mind.  The property benefits from a ground-source heat pump, solar panels and Tesla battery storage, allowing energy generated during the day to be stored for later use. An electric vehicle charging point further complements the home’s renewable credentials, while the wood-burning stove provides an additional source of warmth within the main living area.  The property achieved an Energy Performance Certificate rating of Band B before the solar panels and Tesla battery storage were installed, highlighting the efficiency already incorporated within its design.  For buyers looking for a luxury contemporary home with reduced reliance on conventional energy sources, Glenwood offers an increasingly rare combination of architectural quality, lifestyle and renewable technology.  Approximately 1.36 Acres of Established Grounds  The house stands within approximately 1.36 acres of mature, established grounds, creating an impressive sense of privacy and space.  The gardens form an attractive natural backdrop to the contemporary architecture, with established planting and surrounding woodland giving the property its wonderfully sheltered atmosphere. The generous plot provides plenty of space for outdoor living, gardening and recreation while retaining a close connection with the wider landscape of Pleasant Valley.  There is scope for the grounds to suit a variety of lifestyles, from those seeking peaceful gardens and space for children to explore, to buyers interested in equestrian use or establishing a smallholding.  Stables and Equestrian Potential  Custom-built stables, constructed in 2010, add another dimension to the property and give Glenwood genuine appeal for those wishing to keep a pony, goats or other smallholding animals at home.  Combined with the approximately 1.36-acre plot and direct access to the neighbouring bridleway, the stables create an unusual lifestyle opportunity. It is a property capable of offering the space and freedom associated with country living without the responsibilities of managing a large rural estate.  For equestrian buyers, dog walkers and anyone drawn to an active outdoor lifestyle, the setting is particularly special.  From the Garden to the Beach  One of Glenwood’s most compelling features lies beyond its rear boundary.  A private gate opens directly onto the historic bridleway and heritage trail, providing a beautiful traffic-free route through Pleasant Valley towards Wiseman’s Bridge Beach.  Whether setting out on horseback, walking the dog, enjoying a family cycle or simply taking an evening stroll, the ability to leave the garden and follow a picturesque woodland route towards the Pembrokeshire coast is an exceptional lifestyle feature.  Few homes can offer this balance: a private woodland setting, its own stables, approximately 1.36 acres and direct access to a route leading towards the beach.  A Landscape Rich in History  Pleasant Valley is more than a picturesque setting; it forms part of a landscape with a fascinating cultural and industrial history.  The name Stepaside can be traced back to the 17th century, with local tradition linking it to Oliver Cromwell’s army as it travelled through the area towards Pembroke Castle in 1648. During the 19th century, the valley became an important centre of industry, with the historic Stepaside Ironworks established in 1849. Today, the former industrial route has become a peaceful woodland and heritage trail leading towards Wiseman’s Bridge, allowing residents to experience the area’s history as part of everyday life. Glenwood brings another chapter to that story. From land once associated with the Picton Castle Estate, through its post-war beginnings, to its complete architectural transformation in 2016, this is a property that has continually evolved while remaining deeply connected to its surroundings. Coastal and Country Living in Pembrokeshire  The location places Glenwood within easy reach of Wiseman’s Bridge, Saundersfoot and the wider Pembrokeshire coastline, while retaining the peace and privacy of its sheltered woodland setting. Wiseman’s Bridge is known for its beach, coastal scenery and access to the Pembrokeshire Coast Path. The popular seaside village of Saundersfoot offers a harbour, beaches, restaurants, cafés and everyday amenities, with Tenby and the wider attractions of South Pembrokeshire also within convenient reach.  This balance makes Glenwood particularly appealing. It offers the atmosphere of a rural retreat, the practical advantages of a substantial four-bedroom family home, facilities for an equestrian or smallholding lifestyle and direct access towards the beach all within one of South West Wales’ most distinctive coastal valleys.  Glenwood is not simply a modern house in the countryside. It is a considered fusion of architecture, history and landscape: a piece of Pembrokeshire’s past thoughtfully redefined for luxurious and sustainable modern living.

Contemporary house with garden and terrace Occold (United Kingdom)

Set within just over three acres, Benningham Grange Barn is a magnificent 17th-century barn conversion combining exceptional scale, character and contemporary family living in an enviable rural setting. With superb open-plan accommodation, six/seven bedrooms, extensive ancillary space and planning permission for an impressive indoor pool complex, this is a substantial country home with remarkable further potential. Originally dating from the 1600s and sympathetically converted in 2006, this barn beautifully marries the character of its timber-frame heritage with the demands of modern family life. From the moment they moved in, the current owners felt safe and have greatly enjoyed the generous spaces and a wonderful sense of connection to the surrounding countryside. With no onward chain, the property is now ready for its next chapter and new owners will have considerable freedom to tailor individual rooms on both floors to suit their lifestyle, whether as family bedrooms, guest suites, dressing rooms, home-working spaces or extra TV/hobby rooms. Step Inside Entering the property into the vast vaulted entrance hall, one feels the scene is well and truly set for all the barn has to offer, with space welcoming the whole family as they tumble through the doors. At the heart of the property is a superb open-plan living environment, designed to bring family and guests together while offering flexibility for both everyday life and entertaining. The kitchen, dining room and family/breakfast rooms are all interconnected by open beautifully crafted open beam work, so the chef can chat to guests at the table whilst cooking, mum can keep an eye on children playing on the terrace or doing homework. The opportunities for entertaining on a grand scale are brilliant and the current owners have held parties here for over 40 people with space for all to eat, scatter to the various rooms to relax and of course sleep over. This open plan area itself has been repurposed over the years with the dining room being a lounge, and kitchen as a family room. Just off the kitchen is a small lobby with its own external door, leading to the former attached cart lodge which has been thoughtfully converted to create a highly versatile additional space incorporating a kitchen, cloakroom, sitting room/cinema room, two further bedrooms and a bathroom. This provides an ideal arrangement for guests, older children or those seeking independent accommodation and has been well used. Across the main entrance hall along the hallway, you’ll find a dedicated home office, ideal for the hybrid working lifestyle so many of us now embrace. There are also two further bedrooms, both offering their own lounge space, with one benefiting from a private ensuite and the other served by the family bathroom and these are ideal for those guests needing more accessible facilities, or for multi-generational living where one bedroom could be a repurposed as a living room. French doors open from the breakfast room, entrance hall, study and one bedroom onto a tasteful terrace running the length of the barn bringing the outside into every aspect of life here. Explore Upstairs Beautifully crafted oak stairs lead up to a true wow-factor: a vaulted drawing room flooded with natural light from a bank of electric roof lights. In summer, these can be opened to let a cool breeze drift through, while throughout the year they frame ever-changing views of the sky, from clouds sweeping overhead to the soft glow of a peaceful sunset. This is a room that really comes into its own at Christmas, wood burner crackling away, and the whole extended family gathered together for films, games and making festive memories. The beams are dressed in greenery, and a beautifully decorated Christmas tree takes centre stage, creating an inviting space for everyone to relax and enjoy. A gorgeous mezzanine runs across this room, overlooking the breakfast area and a further mezzanine leads to two further bedrooms, each again benefiting from the electric roof lights that bathe the rooms in natural light. Even on the dullest of days, this entire floor feels wonderfully bright, airy and uplifting. A further family bathroom and separate WC complete the first floor. Step Outside Set in an enviable rural position, the 3.06 acres (STMS) grounds provide an outstanding sense of space, privacy and connection with the countryside. The property is approached via a shared driveway and benefits from a substantial triple and double cart lodge, providing extensive garaging with fully boarded storage above and generous parking. The terrace running the width of the house has ample space for barbecuing, dining and lounging and brings the whole ground floor together outside. The gardens have been purposefully created to offer lawns to play sports on, and a rewilded area for wildlife. The current owners have planted over 100 trees and love to walk at dusk and witness how the woodland and meadow space attract deer, hares and a plethora of birdlife including woodpeckers, Barn and Tawny owls and songbirds. The grounds are pure paradise for bringing up small children with freedom to safely roam yet experience raw nature too. Exciting opportunity lies in the planning permission already granted for a substantial rear extension. The proposed scheme incorporates a 10x4m indoor swimming pool and impressive atrium linking to the main house and the cart lodge, with master suite and annexe upstairs. Building control has already been approved offering the potential to transform an already exceptional country residence into a truly outstanding leisure and entertaining environment. On The Doorstep Occold is found nestled in the beautiful north Suffolk countryside and boasts a friendly and active community with primary school, pub, village hall and church.
