Titlarks Farm, named after a small songbird also known as a Meadow Pipit, is believed to date back to the c16th, with a sympathetic 1970s extension that has given this home its generous proportions without losing its unique character. An attractive timber framed brick-built home beneath a clay tiled roof, it offers 3,838 sq ft of well-proportioned, bright accommodation over two floors, with areas of exposed brick and beams that add warmth without dominating the spaces. Unusually for a house of this age, ceiling heights are generous throughout — the floors were lowered during the 1970s refurbishment programme, giving the interior a real sense of scale rarely found in a home of this period. A welcoming entrance hall, laid with flagstones, sets the tone from the moment you step foot inside. The elegant drawing room to the rear of the house is a particular highlight — dual aspect, filled with light, and opening via French doors onto the terrace, with views over the garden and countryside beyond. A cosy snug with an impressive Inglenook fireplace and wood burning stove leads through into the well proportioned formal dining room, which again opens onto the terrace and pool area — ideal for entertaining on a grand scale. Here there are fine examples of exposed herring bone brick work set within the exposed timber frame. The kitchen/breakfast room has been thoughtfully upgraded in recent years into an excellent cook's kitchen, featuring a central island, bespoke cabinetry, high-end integrated appliances, and a dual control electric Aga, with space for a breakfast table. A useful utility room and a conveniently placed shower room — perfect for access from the pool — complete the practical side of the ground floor, alongside a further sitting room with its own Inglenook fireplace and wood burner with shelving to the chimney recesses, and a study with built-in cupboards and bookcases overlooking the front garden. A wonderful open landing adds to the sense of space upstairs and showcases the original Queen Strut timber construction which has been preserved and exposed as one of the many features. The principal bedroom sits to the rear of the house, enjoying the same glorious views across the gardens and countryside, along with an en suite shower room and a walk-in wardrobe. Two further bedrooms each have their own en suite bathrooms, while two additional bedrooms share a family bathroom — most with the benefit of built-in storage. A sweeping gravel driveway via a 5 bar gate at the entrance from Vicarage Lane, and surrounded by lawns and mature trees on either side, leads to the front of the house, with ample parking and turning area and access to the double garage. To the rear, a paved, west-facing terrace is perfect for outdoor dining, entertaining and watching the sun set overlooking a generous 12m x 6m (1m deep rising gradually to 2.5m) swimming pool and the countryside beyond. A well-maintained and enclosed tennis court, added in 2015, provides further scope for entertainment combined with exercise while the mature gardens — mainly laid to lawn with carefully planted shrub and herbaceous borders — also include an enclosed kitchen garden and fruit trees. There is also a productive greenhouse to the rear of the garage. Titlarks Farm is set on the outskirts of Curdridge, situated close to the picturesque village of Botley, once home to 18th century radical journalist William Cobbett, author of Rural Rides and founder of what is now known as Hansard, the parliamentary record of debates. The small market towns of Bishop's Waltham, and Wickham are just a short drive away as is the thriving commercial port and cruise terminal in the city of Southampton and the historic cathedral city of Winchester. Nearby Botley station offers regular rail links to Winchester in 20 minutes and London Waterloo, while the property's location also provides easy access to the M27, M3 and A34 road networks. Curdridge itself offers a network of footpaths and bridleways through beautiful surrounding countryside and for boaters there are a choice of marinas in Hamble and Swanwick.

We’ve hosted countless BBQs, garden parties and birthday celebrations with friends and family, and have truly loved every minute of living here.

With beautiful walks nearby, lovely pubs and restaurants and the beach within easy reach, it’s been a wonderful place to live.

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).

You approach The Old Walkern Nursery at the very top of Froghall Lane through electric gates and you are immediately greeted by an expansive landscape, with sweeping grounds of just over 6 acres and endless open skies. This beautiful, self built five-bedroom home offers an exceptional family living experience. It features three spacious reception rooms, a striking open plan kitchen-diner-lounge that overlooks a stunning decked area with a swimming pool. The impressive ground-floor master suite includes walk-in wardrobes and his and hers bathrooms. Upstairs, you'll find four well-appointed bedrooms, each with its own en suite, and all offering picturesque views of the rear garden and surrounding countryside. Additional highlights include a heated swimming pool, a four-berth garage, a large storage barn, and a charming two-bedroom annex. Step Inside Opening the front door, you find a breathtaking full-height entrance hall, flooded with natural light through floor-to-ceiling glass panels. At its centre stands a beautifully crafted oak staircase with a contemporary chandelier taking centre stage.  At the rear of the hallway there is a ‘living flame’ gas fire bringing warmth and character to this stylish space. The combination of glass and natural wood blends modern design with timeless style.   Beyond the entrance hall lies a stunning, open-plan kitchen designed with both functionality and sociability in mind. Featuring elegant cabinetry painted in Farrow & Ball’s ‘Dimity’ and crisp white quartz stone worktops, the space centres around a generous island that incorporates a double sink, integrated dishwasher, breakfast bar seating and show stopping Tom Dixon globe pendant lights hang above. A traditional gas fuelled AGA adds charm and warmth, there are two additional electric ovens, a gas hob and a generous walk-in pantry with a second dishwasher, fridge freezer and storage shelves. Bathed in natural light, and with ‘arctic white’ engineered oak flooring throughout, this open plan space is bright and airy, enhanced by a large roof lantern positioned above the generous dining area.  There is a stunning fitted glass cabinet for crockery and glassware as well as displaying photographs and ornamental treasures.  Bi-fold doors seamlessly connect the interior to the covered decked terrace, which leads out to a swimming pool and surrounding seating area — perfect for entertaining or relaxing in the sun. Flowing naturally from the dining space is the open-plan lounge, offering uninterrupted views of the garden through a second set of bi-fold doors. This inviting living area is the ideal spot to unwind while enjoying the peaceful outlook over the pool and landscaped grounds.   Just off the kitchen lies a large utility leading to the back door and offering an extensive run of built-in storage cupboards and ample worksurface. This practical area has a sink and there is space and plumbing for an extra washing machine and tumble dryer, if required; ideal for busy family living. Here, you will also find a smaller laundry room with clothes drying space, a washing machine, tumble dryer, a sink and a purpose-built dog shower area. Returning through the hallway, there is a stylish cloakroom and access to the home's generous reception rooms.  Originally an office, but thoughtfully designed to offer versatility and comfort, this space has been fitted with bespoke walnut shelving, a desk and shelves that surround the TV.  This large reception room now lends itself perfectly to be a TV snug or cinema room, with a remote-control projector and full-size screen and wall mounted air conditioning unit.  The second reception is laid out as a more traditional lounge area, with a stunning almond coloured wood burning stove as the focal point.  The room offers fitted wall to ceiling shelving and bi fold doors open to the decked area and views of the garden.   The next room off the hallway is the show-stopping ground floor master suite — a truly impressive space designed for comfort and luxury. This expansive, air-conditioned room offers a dedicated seating area and a generously sized bedroom, creating a calm and private retreat within the home.  A bespoke walk-through wardrobe provides ample storage, with shelving and hanging space on both sides, leading seamlessly to two beautifully appointed ‘his and hers’  en suite bathrooms — one featuring a large double shower, the other with a freestanding bath, perfect for unwinding. Windows and bi-folding doors with stylish shutters frame the view of the garden and open onto a more secluded patio area, offering direct access to the outdoor space and a peaceful spot to relax in complete privacy.  All the rooms on the ground floor benefit from gas fuelled underfloor heating. Climbing the elegant oak staircase, you’ll find four spacious double bedrooms, each thoughtfully designed with fitted wardrobes, their own en suite bathroom and heated via gas radiators. One of these bedrooms stands out with particularly generous built-in storage, a large, well-appointed shower room and air conditioning making it a strong contender for an alternative master suite, if an upstairs bedroom is desired.  All bedrooms enjoy elevated views over the beautiful rear garden, with the surrounding countryside providing a tranquil and scenic backdrop. The annex is a superb addition to the property, providing flexible living accommodation ideal for extended family or guests. Thoughtfully designed with an open-plan layout, the kitchen and dining area has a utility/pantry cupboard and the lounge is centred around a wood-burning stove, adding warmth and character.  The annex includes two well-proportioned bedrooms and a separate bathroom. With its own entrance and a comfortable, self-contained layout, the annex blends privacy with connectivity to the main home — making it a truly valuable asset. Step Outside Entering the property through secure electric gates, a gravel driveway winds past the house, with block-paved parking area for 2–3 vehicles conveniently located by the back door. Continuing along the drive, you'll find a beautifully constructed oak-framed garage on the right, offering covered parking for four vehicles.  Mature hedging and established trees line the route as you pass a charming two-bedroom annex and approach a substantial storage barn. This versatile outbuilding is approximately 1700 square feet, and divided into four large units, each accessed via a combination of double doors and roller shutters. Equipped with lighting, plumbing, and a kitchen area, the barn is ideal for workshops, business use, or extensive storage needs.  As a point of interest, this barn was previously approved to be converted into a 4 bedroom property, although that consent has now lapsed.   The gravel drive continues in a loop around a central planted roundabout, enhancing the practicality and elegance of the layout.  Set within approximately six acres of landscaped grounds, the gardens are as impressive as the house itself. At the far end of the plot, a raised decked area—affectionately known as the gin terrace—offers a peaceful spot to enjoy open countryside views across neighbouring fields and back towards the main house. Elsewhere on the grounds, you’ll find a dedicated children's play area and a chicken run tucked within a woodland copse, adding to the property's charm and family appeal.  To the rear of the house, a newly laid timber deck runs the full width of the property, and leads you to the heated swimming pool.  This 12m x 8m pool is heated via an air source heat pump and benefits from an electric cover. Partially covered by a wooden pergola, this outdoor entertaining space connects seamlessly to the master suite, lounge, and kitchen-diner through multiple sets of patio and bi-fold doors, creating a strong indoor-outdoor flow and tying the garden beautifully into the heart of the home. Location Old Walkern Nursery enjoys a prime position at the very top of Froghall Lane, offering privacy and tranquillity while remaining just a 10 minute walk down to Walkern’s charming High Street. This picturesque East Hertfordshire village, nestled along the River Beane, is home to a vibrant and friendly community. Local amenities include a Budgens convenience store, welcoming local pubs, a well-regarded primary school, and a variety of clubs and societies that contribute to the village's lively atmosphere. The property is ideally situated just 4.5 miles east of Stevenage town centre and less than 5 miles from the mainline railway station. Stevenage lies on the East Coast Main Line, offering high-speed services to central London — with journey times as fast as 23 minutes to London King’s Cross and 28 minutes to St Pancras International. For road commuters, Junction 8 of the A1(M) is a short 5.4-mile drive away, providing excellent connectivity to the wider motorway network. Nearby towns including Hertford, Hitchin, Welwyn, Ware, and Stevenage offer a broad range of shopping, dining, and leisure facilities. The area is also well served by an excellent selection of both state and independent schools, including Heath Mount School (6 miles drive), St Edmund’s College (11 miles drive), Haileybury (13 miles drive), St Christopher School in Letchworth (9.6 miles drive) and Kingshott in Hitchin (7.2 miles drive).

Orchard Hill is a substantial late‑1920s Arts and Crafts family home set high above the River Hamble in Old Bursledon, with around 4,500 square feet, seven bedrooms and 1.33 acres of landscaped gardens enjoying long views to the water and beyond. Orchard Hill is a substantial late-1920s Arts and Crafts home set high above the River Hamble in the conservation village of Old Bursledon, enjoying long views across its own 1.33 acres of established grounds to the water and beyond. Arranged over two floors and extending to around 4,500 square feet, it offers generous and flexible family accommodation with seven bedrooms, four bath/shower rooms and four reception spaces, together with extensive parking and a double garage. Approached via a long, tree-lined drive that curves up between banks of planting to a deep gravel sweep, the house sits well back from the lane and feels wonderfully private. The elevations are classic Arts and Crafts, with warm brickwork, steep tiled roofs, tall chimneys and a strong balcony line across the river front. The entrance is deliberately theatrical: a brick-tiled threshold leads to a heavy oak front door and, once inside, you step down into a wide reception hall, with immediate views of the garden and river. Throughout the house, the original detailing has been carefully preserved. William Morris wallpaper and matching curtains appear in a number of rooms, complemented by parquet flooring, panelled oak doors, deep skirting boards and period ironmongery. Fireplaces are a recurring theme; there are several substantial brick inglenooks, some with space to sit in the chimney breast itself, creating atmospheric focal points for the main reception spaces. Accommodation The broad reception hall immediately sets the tone, with parquet flooring underfoot, William Morris wallcoverings and an impressive brick fireplace. From here the principal living space unfolds towards the river. From here, folding stained glass doors, specially commissioned by the owners to echo the colours and forms of the Hamble, open into a beautifully proportioned drawing room spanning much of the width of the house, with windows on more than one side, an ornate brick inglenook and French doors opening directly onto the terrace so that the river forms a constant backdrop. The reception space also links into the large dining room. This arrangement allows the three rooms to work either as one large suite for entertaining or as separate, more intimate areas. From the dining room, through a further set of stained glass folding doors is an impressive garden room, more orangery than conservatory, with brick walls, a glass roof and full-height glazing on three sides overlooking the front gardens. It is an everyday living space filled with light, enhanced by the golden tones of the stained glass doors, and easily opened up in warmer weather. A further reception room, fitted with bookcases and another brick fireplace with a wood burning stove, provides an inviting snug or library. The kitchen/breakfast room runs along the opposite side of the house and is designed for family use, with extensive bespoke timber cabinetry, display cupboards and a long run of Corian work surface wrapping around a central space that comfortably accommodates a large table. At the heart of the kitchen has a four-oven gas Aga set into a tiled recess, which also contributes to the hot water system, with further integrated appliances including a Miele dishwasher and built-in fridge and freezer. A utility room, cloakroom and additional ground floor shower room complete the principal level. An original oak staircase rises from the hall to a generous galleried landing, lit by wide windows overlooking the gardens. The upper level is arranged to make the most of the outlook: several of the bedrooms open via French doors directly onto a long first-floor balcony that runs across much of the river elevation. From here, the view takes in the formal gardens below, the tops of the clipped yews, and beyond them the masts and water of the Hamble. In total there are seven bedrooms, six of which are good double rooms, each with space for freestanding furniture and, in some cases, fitted wardrobes and dressing furniture. The principal bedroom is notably generous, with a sitting area by the windows, extensive built-in storage and dual aspects including over the river. Three bath/shower rooms serve the accommodation on this floor, all offering both bath and separate shower. Gardens and setting The grounds are arranged in a series of distinct but flowing areas. To the front, mature trees and shrub borders line the approach, with lawns and stone retaining walls giving a sense of depth and seclusion. Paths and steps rise gently away from the drive towards orchard-style planting and more informal lawn areas, where trees and specimen shrubs are set within broad sweeps of grass. On the river side of the house, a broad stone terrace runs the full length of the elevation, providing multiple places to sit and dine while enjoying the outlook. From here, steps lead down to a large lawn flanked by clipped yews and established hedging, with the river visible between the trees. Further down the garden, a circular pond and stone-paved surround create a focal point, with open lawns leading to an orchard of productive fruit trees beyond giving a sense of space and scale that is hard to find in such a central village setting. Old Bursledon itself is a small, historic village on the western bank of the River Hamble, designated as a conservation area and long associated with boatbuilding and the river. The nearby Elephant Boatyard recalls the village’s shipbuilding past, while the Strawberry Trail offers well-known walking routes through countryside and along the shoreline. The Jolly Sailor, a popular waterside pub with its own slipway, is a local landmark and a focal point for river life. Bursledon railway station is around half a mile away, connecting to Southampton Airport Parkway for services to London Waterloo in approximately 1 hour 10 minutes, and the M27 and M3 provide straightforward road access to Southampton and London.

This visually gorgeous and architecturally stunning country home is totally unique, successfully combining that often sought after and rarely achieved blend of practical family home with attractive design and inspiring spaces. Upon entering via automatic five-bar gate, along a tree-lined driveway, itself a spur off a farm lane you are immediately struck by its beautiful, private setting. Lush green lawns, full country flower beds and a natural meadow frame the house and are themselves set in the bucolic local rolling landscape. A shaded silver birch copse close to the kitchen hosts a big family table reflecting a scene straight from the south of France and rewards the lucky revellers with far reaching views of some of the most delightful countryside in England. After lunch, you can stroll around to another side of the garden and reward yourself with a cooling dip in the pool or a relaxing sundowner. Back in the house, thick stone walls keep you cool in the summer and warm in the winter, in a space, which is one of the unique qualities of converted agricultural buildings, that is both cosy and traditional, yet at the same time vast and modern. The architectural heart of the home is an astonishing open plan double height, atrium topped living space replete with whitewashed gallery walls, exposed steel structures and engineered oak floors that would be quite at home in a Thameside warehouse apartment. A room so capacious that you could entertain a large number of guests for seasonal dinner gatherings or festive parties. A more classic living space and dining area links up the rest of the downstairs space including on one side the gorgeous walnut kitchen with its adjacent boot room and utility room, whilst on the other side, a professional grade air-conditioned 7 seat Dolby Vision/Atmos cinema room. As a nice example of the flexibility of the house which equates to over 6000 square feet, there is a downstairs air-conditioned bedroom with en-suite that would make a fine principal bedroom, or equally the perfect room for guests, elderly parents, au pair or teenager.  The upstairs space is equally flexible and stylish and could easily yield another bedroom, making 5 in total. The current use is as follows; a superb principal bedroom with luxurious en-suite bathroom and a dressing room with a long run of wardrobe space; another bedroom with en-suite; a home office with separate access from the living area; another huge office with en-suite also with its own independent access from the living space.  What the Owner Says We set out looking for what felt like the impossible: a stylish, creative home that could also function effortlessly for family life while offering the outdoor lifestyle we loved in places such as Tuscany and the South of France. We wanted privacy without isolation, space for classic cars, proper live-work accommodation for two creatives, and excellent access to London, Gatwick and Heathrow. Remarkably, this house delivers on every requirement. It continues to amaze us how perfectly it combines practicality, inspiration and lifestyle, and we hope its next owners feel the same. It is also a wonderful house for entertaining. The indoor and outdoor spaces offer countless options for gathering with family and friends, while guest bedrooms provide comfortable overnight accommodation. Summer days revolve around the pool and the large outdoor dining table, perfect for memorable family celebrations. In winter, those same gatherings can continue indoors, perhaps with a classic film enjoyed together in the cinema room.

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.
