House with pool and garden Carlisle (United Kingdom)

Hadrians House - A purpose-built equestrian residence of rare calibre, combining professional-grade facilities with refined modern country living. Constructed in 2015 with a clear brief—create a high-performance equestrian facility without compromising on residential quality—Hadrian’s House delivers on both fronts with precision. Set within approximately 7.4 acres, the property is discreetly positioned behind electric gates, offering privacy while remaining on the edge of a well-connected village. From the outset, the tone is established: natural materials, oak detailing, and a restrained palette create a modern farmhouse aesthetic that feels both considered and functional. This is not a cosmetic nod to country living—it is designed for it. The House The ground floor is anchored by a wide entrance hall, finished with oak flooring that runs consistently throughout, reinforcing the sense of cohesion. A bespoke oak staircase with integrated storage sets a practical tone early. The kitchen is the core of the house—bespoke, hand-painted solid wood cabinetry by Woodstyle, topped with black granite. It is properly specified rather than styled: Belfast sink, Neff appliances, wine fridge, and integrated timber wine storage within the island. The Aga is gas-fired with an electric companion, providing five ovens, multiple hobs, and flexibility that suits both day-to-day use and larger-scale entertaining. This space flows into a dining area and onward into a striking oak-framed living area. Extensive glazing wraps the elevation, pulling in natural light and framing uninterrupted views across the paddocks, critically, maintaining constant visual connection to the land and horses. A side access door leads directly to the patio, reinforcing the indoor-outdoor relationship. A secondary lounge offers contrast, more enclosed, intentionally quieter, with a contemporary gas fire and direct access to the patio. Glazed doors connect through to a formal dining room, allowing the layout to flex between open-plan entertaining and more defined spaces. The supporting accommodation is well judged: a fully fitted utility/laundry room with matching cabinetry, a ground floor shower room, and a boiler/drying room designed specifically for country use - wet coats, boots, and kit are clearly anticipated. A stable-style external door reinforces this as a working entrance. A study to the rear provides additional flexibility. This space is currently an office, but equally viable as a fourth bedroom, snug, or hobby space. First Floor The upper floor continues the same disciplined approach to materials and finish, with underfloor heating throughout. Three bedrooms are arranged to maximise light and outlook. The principal suite breathtaking. Vaulted ceilings, exposed oak structure, and a glazed gable end create a space that feels closer to a boutique retreat than a conventional bedroom. A dedicated dressing room and a high-spec ensuite features porcelain tiling and a large walk-in shower which complete this luxury suite. A second bedroom also benefits from ensuite facilities, while the family bathroom is centred around a freestanding bath, finished in a neutral, durable palette. Equestrian Facilities This is where Hadrian’s House separates itself from the majority of lifestyle properties. The equestrian offering is not an add-on—it is the primary asset, executed to a standard that supports serious use. 7.4 acres, intelligently divided into rotational paddocks Outdoor arena (50m x 30m) with premium sand and rubber surface Indoor arena (18m x 30m) with mirrors and full lighting—usable year-round Canter track/gallop running along the boundary, linking upper paddocks All-weather turnout areas adjacent to the indoor arena Horse walker (by separate negotiation)The stable block is equally well specified: 8 full stables plus additional storage stable Rubber matting to floors and walls throughout Solarium for muscle recovery and conditioning (by separate negotiation) Dedicated wash bay with hot and cold water Central cross-tie areas with excellent lighting Integrated kitchen, seating, and laundry area for day-to-day yard management First-floor tack room and rug storageOperational flow has been considered. Movement between arenas, turnout, stabling, and storage is efficient, which matters if this is being used at scale or professionally. A large gravel yard provides ample space for wagons, trailers, and machinery, with straightforward access and turning. Additional Accommodation & Leisure Across the yard, a covered area provides parking for two vehicles. Above, a self-contained studio apartment offers genuine ancillary accommodation—well-finished with oak flooring, open-plan living/sleeping space, fitted kitchen, and shower room. This is suitable for staff, guests, or as a dedicated office separate from the main house. Closer to the house, a garden room has been configured as a leisure space with bar and sauna. Adjacent is a covered patio with hot tub, positioned to take advantage of the south-facing orientation and uninterrupted views across the land. Location – Kirkandrews-on-Eden Kirkandrews-on-Eden offers a rare combination of accessible countryside and authentic rural living. Surrounded by a collection of well-regarded villages, the area is known for its excellent country pubs, traditional inns, and quality local butchers, delivering the kind of day-to-day lifestyle that buyers at this level actively look for, not just scenery. Positioned just a short drive from Carlisle, the property benefits from immediate access to a comprehensive range of amenities, schooling, and services, alongside excellent transport links via the M6 and mainline rail connections to London and Glasgow. For those drawn to the outdoors, the setting is particularly strong. The property lies along the route of Hadrian’s Wall Path, allowing direct access to miles of established walking routes straight from the doorstep. The area provides quiet lanes and open countryside ideal for hacking, while both the Lake District National Park and the Cumbrian coastline are within easy reach—offering a diverse mix of landscapes from fells and lakes to open beaches. This is a location that delivers not just on convenience, but on lifestyle—particularly for buyers prioritising space, access to the outdoors, and a strong sense of place. Summary Hadrian’s House is not a compromised lifestyle purchase. It is a properly executed equestrian property where the infrastructure justifies the headline. If the buyer’s priority is horses—training, conditioning, or small-scale professional use—this will outperform the majority of comparable offerings. The house supports that use case without dilution, delivering a level of finish and comfort that aligns with the quality of the yard.

We wanted a detached house that we could make into a home. This house was in need of modernisation but we could see the potential.”  Tell us a little about the home’s history. Have you made any changes or additions that you feel have enhanced its character or functionality?  “We set about a complete renovation but tried to be sympathetic to the age of the house and to retain original features. It feels very warm and welcoming when returning home. Although it’s large, it still feels homely. It is a victorian villa which has had many incarnations over the years but we wanted to return it to a family home adapted for modern living whilst retaining the period aesthetic and character.”  Which spaces do you find yourself gravitating to most, and why?  “We spend most of our time in the kitchen/living area which is light and airy due to the orangery but with a cosy snug. We like to sit here and watch the birds in the garden. We have the sun on the back of the house all afternoon and in the summer we open the french doors to enjoy the garden. The property feels most magical at Christmas. Spacious rooms and high ceilings mean we can have a large tree and Christmas dinner in the formal dining room feels special.”  For families, what do you feel makes this such a wonderful place to raise children?  “This is a great place to raise children because of the close proximity of local amenities including Victoria Park and Southport Beach. There is also a selection of schools around the Southport area. The grounds of the property are completely enclosed so very safe for young children.”  How would you describe the local community and the lifestyle on offer?  “We are only a 10-15 minute walk into Southport which has a number of shops, supermarkets and some good restaurants. Birkdale village is a similar distance and offers a choice of bars, restaurants and coffee shops.”  What kinds of memories have been created here? Celebrations, milestones, or quiet moments that you’ll always cherish?  “We have created lots of happy memories here but have particularly enjoyed watching our grandson enjoy the space and the swimming pool.”  What do you think the next owners will fall in love with most?  “I think the next owners will enjoy the location of the property. The walled garden and set back from the road position makes it feel very private but it is only minutes from all amenities.

Set within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the estate lies a mere hundred yards from the tranquil waters of St Just Creek, offering both beach and mooring access, and adjoins unspoilt National Trust land and the scenic coastal path. A Grade II* listed residence of exceptional architectural and historical significance, The Old Rectory is believed to date from 1680–1720, with elegant later Georgian enhancements. Over the past two decades, the property has been meticulously restored by its current owners, blending the grandeur of a country estate with the warmth and practicality of a family home. Every detail reflects its heritage, from hand-crafted fireplaces and bespoke joinery to the careful reinstatement of original features, including sash windows and traditional cast-iron rainwater goods. The result is a home of quiet refinement, timeless craftsmanship, and enduring Cornish character. The Old Rectory Boasting six bedrooms and five bathrooms, this characterful and instantly inviting home spans three floors, blending an air of grandeur with a warm, homely atmosphere. Original features abound, including historic fireplaces, wood panelling, and classic sash windows. The Drawing Room and Dining Room retain their generous proportions and classical detailing; each thoughtfully redecorated with subtle references to the home’s heritage. In the Drawing Room, a trompe l’oeil feature mirrors the original panelling, while the chimney breast and adjoining alcoves reflect the building’s Georgian origins. The Dining Room highlights period details and bespoke joinery, accentuating its historic character. Georgian windows in both principal reception rooms frame picturesque garden views. The ground floor has been sensitively reconfigured to improve circulation and daily functionality. A welcoming Entrance Hall leads to the Drawing Room and a spacious Library, complete with custom bookcases. A charming Sitting Room preserves original fittings from its former use as a laundry, including a copper wash tub and drying pegs. The Kitchen and Orangery form the heart of the home, designed for modern family life with a triple aspect and direct access to terraces and gardens. The Orangery, added in 2002, provides a year-round space perfect for entertaining or enjoying the shifting light of the Cornish coast. A secondary entrance connects to the Kitchen, Cloakroom, and Utility Room, with stairs descending to the Cellar level, which now accommodates a large Laundry Room, Gym or Games Area, and generous winter storage.

A delightful Victorian-style Greenhouse, designed to complement the house, adds both practical functionality and year-round visual charm.

The Cottage offers an open-plan Kitchen and Living Area, a principal Bedroom with an Ensuite Shower, two further Bedrooms, and a Family Bathroom. The landscaped Garden features terraces and steps, designed to provide privacy and a serene outdoor living environment and its own parking courtyard.

The space also includes a WC and extensive attic, offering further potential if desired.

The Gardens and Grounds The gardens have been masterfully reimagined and created by award-winning and world-renowned landscape architect Bunny Guinness, creating a series of exquisite ‘garden rooms’ that harmoniously complement the grandeur of the house and its stunning setting. The result is a captivating and highly functional landscape, where texture, colour, and form are meticulously curated to delight every sense. A central pathway leads through a flower and vegetable garden, featuring raised beds, a serene dipping pool, and a seating enclave with stunning views, ideal for alfresco entertaining. The rear gardens extend the sense of refined elegance, with a Mediterranean-style courtyard, meticulously sculpted topiary, and terraced lawns with majestic palms.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial and distinctive home in a beautiful Somerset setting, offering space, flexibility and a lifestyle that is increasingly hard to find. Sellers Insight “I will be very sad to leave Lion Court Lodge. This has been my much-loved home for 34 happy years, and I have always treasured the peace, privacy and tranquillity that comes with living on Dancing Hill. The views are something I will miss enormously. Waking up to the wildlife, with deer, woodpeckers and the dawn chorus, has been a real privilege. Some of my happiest memories have been spent around the swimming pool. On warm summer weekends, it has always been a wonderful gathering place for children, family and friends. Swimming and entertaining after dark, with the pool lights glowing and the stars overhead, has felt quite magical. After 34 years, the time has come for me to downsize. Lion Court Lodge now feels ready for a new family to enjoy everything it has to offer and to make their own special memories here.” Step Inside – The Main House Built for our clients some 34 years ago to exacting standards, Lions Court Lodge is a remarkable individual home, designed from the outset to provide generous and flexible accommodation for two families while making the very most of its elevated position and far-reaching views towards Somerset countryside including Glastonbury Tor and the Mendip Hills. The main house makes an immediate impression, with a stunning dining hall featuring a marble floor and bespoke stained-glass window. From here, a private internal door connects to the adjoining property, allowing the two homes to work together when required, while still retaining privacy and independence. The principal sitting room is an elegant and welcoming space, centred around a striking fireplace and enjoying views over the gardens and swimming pool. A separate garden room further enhances the living space, taking full advantage of the beautiful outlook across the gardens and surrounding countryside. The kitchen/breakfast room is well arranged and filled with natural light, with multiple windows framing the views. It is fitted with a range of units, integrated appliances and an oil-fired Aga, with ample room for a table and chairs for informal dining. A practical utility room provides useful additional workspace and direct access outside. The home was clearly designed around its setting, and this is particularly evident on the first floor, where a second sitting room connects to a stunning glazed viewing room with a small balcony. This exceptional space enjoys panoramic views across the gardens, countryside, Glastonbury Tor and the Mendip Hills, with air conditioning installed to ensure comfortable year-round use when the sun shines. There are a choice of principal bedrooms on this floor, including one with direct access onto the viewing room and a further double bedroom with en-suite shower room and wonderful views. Bedroom four/five was thoughtfully designed with teenagers or guests in mind, offering accommodation arranged over two floors, with a choice of sleeping areas, dressing space and an en-suite shower room Step Inside – The Adjoining Home The accommodation has been thoughtfully designed to provide a well-balanced and highly comfortable home in its own right. Arranged across the ground floor, it offers generous private accommodation with its own independent front door, while also benefiting from an internal connection to the main house, should the two homes wish to operate together. The accommodation opens into a modern kitchen/dining room, enjoying a pleasant front aspect and fitted with a range of contemporary units and integrated appliances.

A substantial detached triple garage block, complete with attic room above, provides excellent space for car enthusiasts, storage, hobbies or potential further use, subject to any necessary consents. To the left-hand side of the driveway, a gate gives easy access to the adjoining paddock, extending to around 2 acres and offering excellent lifestyle opportunities, whether for those with equestrian interests, smallholding ambitions, or simply the desire for space and privacy.

Contemporary house with pool and garden Cosby (United Kingdom)

Notably contemporary Located within the south Leicestershire village of Cosby, this house sitting on a third of an acre of ground, has been redesigned to maximise its potential. Containing over 3,000 square feet of interior space, it easily fulfils contemporary expectations for a bespoke executive property. Originally constructed during the 1940s, it has been the project of the present homeowner for ten years, with a complete renovation and extension beginning in October 2020 and a total rewiring in 2023. The resulting transformation is an outstanding detached house that along with many other features, provides three reception rooms, a spacious kitchen and breakfast diner, and a ground floor guest suite with five large double bedrooms across the first floor. Established residential area The house is located within a quiet residential area of similarly unique, characterful properties and benefits from little traffic by being atop a cul de sac. Kerb appeal is immediate. It is fronted by an open plan arrangement of paving, discreet planting and a wide drive that winds to the front and side. It is undoubtably a statement property. Characterful features include an intersecting and overlaid hip and valley roof, with dormer windows and an impressive apex window. Anthracite window frames and white rendered walls create expectations of a modern interior, as everything about the exterior-including the new roof complete with replacement fascia, soffits and guttering- establishes the impression of sharp, clean structural lines. This is enforced by the symmetry of the open weather porch, shielding a composite front door, and matched with a pair of translucent glass panels. Vehicular access is unhindered and there is ample parking. An integral single garage is immediately to the right of the property and access to the main house can be gained from here, through a downstairs washroom. The garage is equipped with overhead lighting, a store cupboard and power. The tour of the ground floor The house has been totally renovated and enlarged to prioritise light, airiness and space. From the first step across the threshold, the interior structural elements and decoration speak of an intrinsic simplicity and beauty through the choice of textures, fixtures and fittings. This is a generous property that reflects minimalism, great design and decisions made with high quality as standard. The residence is in every way, uncluttered. Unhindered lines of sight and a neutral colour palette, provide an interior décor that is the blueprint for free flow contemporary living, and the central point of convergence, is the entrance hall. The hall’s stunning apex window and vaulted ceiling is a major feature. It adds warmth, light and a volume of overhead space that encourages the visitor to look upwards to appreciate the white balustraded, carpeted staircase and gallery. This executive home has been renovated with an exacting level of detail and attention to the fixtures and fittings. The property is coordinated throughout with matching doors, skirting boards, switches and LED ambient lighting. Fitted blinds cover most windows and most can be operated with a remote control. In the hall there are deep set windows on each side of the entrance. Optimised open plan living The open plan kitchen diner is to the right and measures nearly a third of the internal downstairs area. Covered in large porcelain floor tiles, it is an extensive light-filled room with dual aspects, and incorporates many stylish features, seamlessly running from one purposed space to another. Beginning with the breakfast room, the window has a front aspect. It is presently used as an informal sitting area but however it is used, it is within sight and easy conversation of those in the kitchen. The versatility of this space is an asset. Beyond, the kitchen is amply fitted with soft closing wall and floor non-handle units, an expanse of work top across one wall and a central island with sink and three built in USB points. A large lantern sky light allows light to flood into the food preparation area and onto the integrated appliances including a microwave cooker, separate AEG oven, food warming drawer, wine coolers, a fridge freezer, an induction hob with extraction and a Quooker tap. Two large, fitted pullout waste drawers, a dishwasher, plus large under counter storage cupboards, complete the fully fitted kitchen which was recently installed in 2023. The central island, also houses room for stools, and who would not want to sit in such a wonderful room and admire the views through the bi-folding doors? They fold back to allow the raised terrace to become an extension of the room. This is ideal for entertaining and provides immediate access to the landscaped, private garden. A landscaped garden The garden is a continuation of the open plan scheme. It is a secluded, well-maintained garden and incorporates terracing, shrubbery, planted beds, hedges and trees. A sheltered summer house and green house with raised beds provide interest for keen gardeners, while a large, grassed area is perfect for children to play safely. It is by clever and practical design that these lovely outdoor areas are seamlessly linked to optimise space for maximum functionality, whether for everyday living or those special entertaining occasions. Reception rooms The pantry and utility room are to the right of the kitchen. With additional storage, work top and sink, space is available for a washing machine and vented tumble drier. The utility room has access to the garden and is next door to a room presently used as a study. It has two windows looking into the rear garden. Leaving this room and walking back into the kitchen, a boot room is discreetly located in the hall and then a hallway links the remaining ground floor reception rooms and guest suite. Both reception rooms are spacious, easily cater for different arrangements of furniture and have patio doors opening to the terrace. The sitting room is particularly bright, as it also has two large picture windows. It is carpeted and fitted with coordinating blinds and curtains. Likewise, the lounge has curtains. This room has a wood effect laminate flooring and a large fireplace, displaying a slate hearth, oak mantel and black gas fire. The reception rooms share an internal window. The guest suite and first floor bedrooms Before ascending to the first floor, the ground floor has a valuable asset that has yet to be investigated. A large, carpeted bedroom, with separate bathroom. These en-suite facilities consist of a walk-in shower, toilet, bidet, sink unit and stand-alone roll top bath. It is perfectly private as a guest suite or for a member of the family requiring ground floor accommodation. From the generous living areas on the ground floor the ascent to the first floor is dominated by the feature apex window. It allows natural light to flood the wide, airy landing. Here there are five double bedrooms, a study and family bathroom. The rooms have television and power points and three of the largest, private en-suites consisting of walk-in showers, toilets and vanity units. The prime suite has a dressing room, while others have integrated fitted wardrobes. Windows have been fitted with a combination of curtains and blinds: some remotely controlled. All the bathing facilities in this house are quite superior with high quality white sanitaryware, distinctive wall and floor tiling, lighting and heated towel rails. The family bathroom has a contemporary style free standing bath with hand shower, separate walk-in shower, vanity unit and toilet. The boiler and heating system were installed 2023. The water tank is a huge 150 litre Stelflow tank, perfect for large families. This is connected to a recently installed Worcester boiler. The boiler also feeds the under-floor heating in the kitchen. All installed in 2023. LOCALITY Cosby LE9 Cosby is a sought-after village advantageously situated in the south of Leicestershire, benefitting from all the merits of its countryside location while also being close to motorway and rail networks that crisscross the country. Administered by the Blaby District Council, larger towns nearby include Whetstone, Blaby, Wigston and Oadby. It is only 7 miles from Leicester’s city centre, with its multi-cultural restaurants, theatres, museums, galleries, rich retail selection and attractions such as the King Richard III exhibition. From Cosby the M 1 can be reached at junction 21, to the south near to Lutterworth and junction 20. The A426 is the main through road to Lutterworth, with train stations at Rugby for links to Birmingham and Narborough for links to Leicester, with trains running regularly to London St Pancras International. East Midlands Airport (EMB) and Birmingham Airport (BHX) are the closest airports. Cosby or ‘Cassebi’ was first recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 but given that the Fosse Way bounds the parish to the north, it may well have been a settlement in earlier times, having a notable stream running through it. St Michael’s and All Angels parish church dates from the fourteenth century and the village centre has a selection of buildings including a cruck-framed barn, that combine to mark the centuries that have passed, including the present development of homes. The original settlement from the was based around the open fields system of agriculture predating the Norman Conquest. In 1767 the Enclosure Act forced the predominantly farming community to become invested with industrial economics, namely framework knitting, and then boot and shoe manufacture. Today, the bustling village has a summer Yarn Bomb event that recalls its heritage links and brings many visitors. Although it has existed for centuries, this large village continues to appeal to the community through a wide selection of sport, education and leisure amenities, including an array of shops, a library, cafes (including a popular fish and chip shop) and parks and Golf course.
