luxury houses with terrace for sale United Kingdom (page 4)

Some homes have presence because of their scale, others because of their setting. Becket House possesses both. Positioned in one of the most distinctive locations within the conservation village of Greatford, the house sits alongside Greatford Hall and the parish church of St Thomas a Becket, approached over an attractive late eighteenth century stone bridge that immediately sets the tone for arrival. Hidden from the main road and surrounded by mature gardens extending to just over half an acre, it occupies a setting that feels unusually private and quietly special. For the current owners, however, it was not simply the location that first caught their attention. Having originally been searching for an older property, they were drawn to the fact that although Becket House was built in 1986, it carried all the visual character of a much earlier house. Constructed by a builder for his own occupation using reclaimed stone from an old barn, the property immediately offered the appeal of traditional architecture combined with the advantages of more modern construction and practical family living. Its origins are closely linked with neighbouring Greatford Hall. The house was created within what had once been the Hall's vegetable gardens and the historic wall that still encloses the rear garden forms part of the original boundary to the estate. Today, those connections remain part of the property's character, giving Becket House a sense of belonging within its surroundings rather than feeling simply placed beside them. The approach is memorable. Crossing the bridge and passing the church and Greatford Hall creates an arrival that feels both atmospheric and unexpectedly secluded. The driveway sweeps gently around the house, opening into a substantial parking area and giving access to the garages. Mature planting, lawns and carefully arranged borders frame the front garden, while the church beyond provides a picturesque backdrop. Internally, Becket House extends to over 3,400 square feet and offers accommodation that feels both substantial and adaptable. Throughout the house there is a consistent sense of light and flow, something the owners have particularly enjoyed during their time here. Large windows and multiple garden-facing doors ensure that many of the principal rooms enjoy attractive views and a strong connection with the outside. The entrance hall forms a welcoming central point from which much of the ground floor accommodation unfolds. Double doors lead directly into the family kitchen and dining space while also connecting to the principal reception rooms and cloakroom facilities. The kitchen sits firmly at the heart of the home and is arranged as an impressive open plan family space. Generously proportioned and thoughtfully designed, it incorporates extensive cabinetry and a large central island beneath stone work surfaces, creating a practical arrangement for everyday life as well as entertaining. The owners comment that the house works exceptionally well for gatherings and celebrations, particularly during Christmas when the layout allows guests to move naturally between spaces. The open arrangement downstairs has hosted numerous parties over the years and the relationship between the house and garden becomes particularly apparent during the warmer months. French doors open directly from the dining and living areas onto the south facing gardens beyond. In fact, the owners note that three separate sets of doors along the rear elevation all frame views of the gardens and allow the outside to become part of day-to-day life. Beyond the principal kitchen space sits the striking garden room. With its vaulted glazed atrium ceiling and generous proportions, it provides an impressive additional reception space with a character entirely of its own. Filled with natural light and enjoying direct access to the garden and driveway, it creates a room that can function equally well as a quieter retreat or as part of larger entertaining occasions. Elsewhere, the house provides a selection of further reception areas suited to both family life and more formal occasions. The principal sitting room enjoys a dual aspect arrangement that allows light to move through the room throughout the day. French doors open directly onto the gardens, while a wood burning stove set within a stone fireplace creates a more intimate focal point during colder months. Alongside sits a substantial study. Beautifully proportioned and overlooking the gardens, it offers obvious practical use as a home office while retaining flexibility for a range of future uses depending on a purchaser's requirements. The current owners worked with Hunters Interiors in shaping much of the decorative scheme throughout the house. Their approach has been to create interiors that feel contemporary yet comfortable and welcoming. The result is a home that balances scale with warmth, avoiding formality despite its generous proportions. The first floor accommodation continues the sense of space established downstairs. Four double bedrooms are arranged around a large central landing, including the principal and guest bedrooms which both benefit from fitted wardrobes and en suite shower rooms. A modern family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms and includes a separate shower. A particularly versatile feature of the house lies beyond the main bedroom arrangement. Rising from the garden room, a separate staircase leads to bedroom five, complete with its own en suite shower room. Positioned independently from the principal first floor accommodation, it offers flexibility for guests, older children or multi-generational arrangements. Alongside the main house sits The Barn, a detached ancillary cottage arranged over two floors. Separate from the principal accommodation and with its own parking and garden area, The Barn is currently let and introduces opportunities for a range of future uses, subject to any necessary requirements. The accommodation includes a kitchen and sitting room at ground floor level with two bedrooms and a bathroom above. Well-proportioned throughout, it is a valuable addition to the overall property. Outside, the gardens have received considerable attention during the current ownership, with extensive investment in the landscape design, reshaping and development of the gardens to create a stronger sense of structure and year-round interest. Particular attention was given to planting and borders, including the creation of a substantial herbaceous border running alongside the original boundary wall. This was designed specifically to provide colour and interest throughout the seasons and forms one of the defining features of the gardens today. The rear gardens are especially private and enjoy a south facing orientation. Expansive lawns combine with mature planting, pathways and seating areas to create a sequence of spaces rather than a single open area. Framed by established trees, walls and planting, the gardens feel sheltered and peaceful while still retaining a sense of openness. The owners describe the property as ideal for entertaining but equally suited to quieter, day-to-day enjoyment. It is not only the house itself they will miss, but also the wider village community. Greatford has long been known for its strong sense of community and village spirit. The village hall forms the centre of many local activities and events throughout the year, including regular gatherings and summer celebrations. According to the owners there is a genuine sense of people looking after one another and stepping forward when help is needed. Combined with the convenience of Stamford, Bourne and Peterborough nearby, together with excellent schooling and transport connections, Becket House offers an unusual combination of privacy, practicality and character. Some houses offer attractive accommodation. Others offer memorable settings. Becket House manages to combine both in a way that feels increasingly difficult to find.   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.

A beautifully presented and thoughtfully extended four-bedroom detached family home, occupying an enviable semi-rural position on a peaceful no-through lane, with far-reaching views across open countryside towards the Chiltern Hills. Offering approximately 2,460 sq ft of versatile and exceptionally well-balanced accommodation, this impressive home successfully combines contemporary family living with a wonderful sense of space, privacy and connection to the surrounding countryside. Approached via a quiet country lane on the edge of Princes Risborough, the property immediately enjoys a sense of tranquillity that is increasingly difficult to find, whilst remaining exceptionally well connected for both everyday amenities and commuting. The house has been substantially improved and remodelled by the current owners, creating a home that is both stylish and highly practical, with the principal living spaces designed around modern family life and entertaining. At the heart of the property is an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and family room, created as part of a substantial full-width rear extension completed in 2019. This superb space is flooded with natural light, courtesy of large windows, roof lights and full-height aluminium sliding doors which draw the eye directly towards the garden and the countryside beyond.

The accommodation provides excellent flexibility for a growing family, visiting guests or those requiring dedicated home-working or hobby space. Outside, the property continues to impress. The private rear garden has been thoughtfully landscaped to create a series of attractive spaces for outdoor dining, entertaining and relaxation. A combination of porcelain-tiled patios, composite decking, lawn and mature planting creates an attractive backdrop to the house, whilst the established planting provides a high degree of privacy and seclusion.

SELLER INSIGHT We were first drawn to Manor Farm House by its wonderfully peaceful setting,` say the owners of this charming Grade II listed home. `Tucked away at the end of a quiet no-through lane within a small enclave of homes, it has a real sense of calm and privacy. The outlook across unspoilt farmland immediately captured us, and after living here for more than 20 years, it is still the thing we treasure most.` Dating back to around 1720, the house was originally part of a working farm, with neighbouring agricultural buildings later converted into individual homes. `There are just four houses in this part of the development, which gives it a very secluded feel while still being friendly and welcoming,` the owners explain. `It is an incredibly comfortable house to live in, full of character and individuality.` The accommodation is arranged over two floors, with additional attic and cellar spaces adding further flexibility and charm. Period features sit comfortably alongside practical family living, with a series of beautifully proportioned rooms. `The dining room has always been one of our favourite spaces for family celebrations and special occasions,` say the owners, `while the kitchen is the heart of the home. Watching the sunsets from there throughout the seasons is something we never tire of.` The kitchen is fitted with an Aga and connects to a useful utility room, while upstairs four bedrooms, one with a generous en-suite, await. Above this, an attic room provides additional occasional accommodation,` they say. Outside, the gardens extend to around 0.75 acres and are positioned entirely to the rear of the house, creating a wonderfully private setting. Expanses of lawn are bordered by established flower beds and feature an apple tree and a protected Yew tree while the vegetable garden has four raised beds. `We`ve loved growing beetroot, spinach, peas and artichokes there,` say the owners. `The garden has been such a special part of life here, particularly because of the sense of space and complete tranquillity.`Despite its rural atmosphere, Cublington enjoys a thriving village community and excellent connections to nearby towns and railway stations, giving plenty of options for commuters. `Manor Farm House is a peaceful yet highly practical country home.`* Notice Please note we have not tested any apparatus, fixtures, fittings, or services.

There is ample room for a large dining table and informal seating, making this as much a family room as it is a kitchen. A substantial utility room leads directly off, originally the servant quarters, complete with its own secondary staircase still intact, offering genuine flexibility for multi-generational living or simply a nod to the history beneath your feet. The first floor houses five bedrooms, all of generous proportion. Two benefit from their own en suite bathrooms, both fitted with underfloor heating, one featuring a sleek walk-in shower enclosure. The family bathroom perfectly complements the period character of the home. The principal bedroom enjoys its own bay window above the reception room below, flooding the space with light, and is served by a very large en suite. On the second floor, the possibilities open up further. A versatile room currently suited to use as a study or additional bedroom leads through to an extensive loft space that is ready and waiting to be converted. In the hands of a buyer with vision, the entire upper floor could become a private principal suite of genuine hotel quality, a games room or a creative studio. The ceiling height, the bones of the space and the existing access make this one of the most exciting opportunities the house presents. Outside, the plot is extraordinary for this location. Mature trees, established planting and lawned gardens wrap around the property, offering complete privacy and a sense of seclusion that belies the fact you are moments from everything this exceptional address has to offer. A dedicated garden outbuilding currently serves as a private gym. The gardens also benefit from an external WC and a separate outdoor utility room used for garden maintenance and storage. The annexe above the garage is a genuinely independent living space with its own gas meter, electricity meter and boiler system. Comprising a bedroom area, lounge, kitchen and bathroom, it is ideal for extended family, a live-in carer, visiting guests or as an income-generating opportunity. A garage with remote controlled electric doors and an adjacent carport complete the outstanding provision of outbuildings. The home is further protected by a silent panic alarm connected directly to the Police, providing an exceptional level of security and peace of mind for the whole household. Directly opposite the property sits one of the area's most treasured assets. The University of Leicester Botanic Garden is a destination in its own right, drawing visitors from across the county and beyond to experience 16 acres of breathtaking grounds that change with every season. To have this on your doorstep, to watch it bloom and transform through spring, summer, autumn and winter, is one of those quiet privileges that only the fortunate few who live here truly understand. Victoria Park is equally close, offering open green space, weekend recreation and a wonderful sense of room to breathe. Glebe Road sits at the heart of Oadby, one of the most distinguished residential addresses in the East Midlands. This is a neighbourhood defined by sweeping tree-lined avenues, handsome period architecture and a strong, established community that has long attracted professionals, academics and families who value both quality of life and convenience. For families with children, the educational offering in this area is outstanding. Leicester High School for Girls, Leicester Grammar School and Stoneygate School are all within easy reach, alongside a number of excellent state schools, making this one of the most sought-after catchments in the region.

INTRODUCTION After years of detailed planning and complete renovation, this wonderful Victorian property, which was built c.1880, is now a beautiful family home once again. The original and skilled craftsmen who painstakingly created the detail of the property in circa 1880 would, we imagine, have been delighted to see it restored to what they knew it to be. The current owners committed to significant investment in this project and the result seems to have been worth it.. The list of improvements is lengthy and detailed, and briefly includes a complete new roof, new upgraded plumbing and central heating, total rewiring, all new windows, replacement bathrooms and kitchen and a complete cosmetic décor programme throughout. It seems nothing has been missed! They have very cleverly restored a beautiful period home to its former glory whilst incorporating modernity in exactly the right places with both blending together well. In 2020 a new detached annexe was built to the same excellent standard as the main house, and offers further family accommodation to suit your needs. This grand old house oozes traditional features such as; original fireplaces and panelled doors, high-level skirting boards, picture rails, moulded ceilings and architraves to mention just a few. Whilst all this character forms the overall charm of the house, the modernity previously mentioned allows for family day-to day lives to be somewhat more pleasant than it would have been for the Victorian family who lived here all those years ago. With just under 4,000 square feet of accommodation (including the annexe), there is room for a growing family, with the layout and design offering everyone adequate space to enjoy their own time away from the normal buzz of family life! This fantastic family home sits in one of the largest plots in the area and is within a short stroll of the water's edge and local beach, offering an abundance of leisure pursuits such as walking, sailing, surfing and kayaking to name a few. For racquet sport enthusiasts the Warblington Tennis Club is a few streets away. A couple of miles down the road is the charming harbourside village of Emsworth with independent boutiques, restaurants, coffee shops and two sailing clubs. Being situated on the Havant/Emsworth border, travel communications are excellent with access to the M27 south-coast road and the A3 to London within a few minutes of the property. If commuting to the capital is required, there are a choice of train stations, within walking distance, with regular services to London in 1hour 20 minutes.   STEP INSIDE Stepping through the new front porch into the bright Entrance Hall, with its intricately tiled floor and stained-glass windows, immediately imparts a feeling of space and elegance which is delightfully replicated throughout the house. The accommodation comprises a large sitting room leading through to a delightful garden room where one can enjoy views over the mature and well stocked garden. Double doors lead into the kitchen which was created by combining the original kitchen, scullery and walk-in pantry into one. It is well-designed and fitted with a good range of modern appliances. The utility room lies at the end of the kitchen and is spacious enough to accommodate some home-gym equipment. The dining room and family room are located to the front of the house and are generous in proportions. The main reception rooms have modern and highly-efficient wood-burning stoves each set within a beautiful period fireplace. On the first floor the layout is split-level which adds a degree of individuality and character. The new master bedroom layout incorporates a dressing area and a spacious ensuite bathroom. There are four further good-sized bedrooms, a family bathroom and a shower room, plus and additional and very useful WC at the end of the hall, between bedrooms three and four.   STEP OUTSIDE The house is accessed via twin wrought-iron gates to a gravel driveway, with ample parking for several vehicles. There is space for caravan or trailer parking if desired. The large garden is mature and well-tended and offers plenty of interest for the keen gardener with shrub and flower borders offering pleasant seasonal displays, a number of fruit trees and a fruit cage . At the end of the garden and tucked away out of sight are two large storage sheds. The newly-built Annexe, offers independent quality accommodation, and has been designed throughout for wheelchair access if required. Whether used for generational family accommodation, occasional visitors, au-pair or carer rooms or for working from home, the options of use are many. The space is more than adequate for all of the above. The sitting room and kitchen are open-plan with the sitting room being double-aspect and having glazed double-doors directly onto its own terrace. The kitchen is spacious and has an excellent range of units, quality appliances and a breakfast bar. There are fitted wardrobes in the bedroom and a pleasant view over the garden of the main house. The good-sized shower room is completed with a walk-in shower. There is a second room which could be used as a further bedroom, dining room, or resident carer accommodation.

Step inside Angelton Hall’s classical grandeur, elegant proportions and beautiful, elevated setting ensure it’s one of the most spectacular and desirable properties in Bridgend. Pass through the pillars of a classical portico and a pair of heavy wooden doors into a grand yet welcoming entrance hall that sets the tone for the rest of the house with its double-height ceiling, central staircase that splits into two and galleried landing. Light and airy, with touches of gold on its handrails and spindles, a chandelier hanging over the central space and tiled floor, this impressive space provides access to every area of the house. Directly beyond the entrance hall is a large light and airy open plan kitchen/breakfast room containing hand-crafted New England-style cabinets that make the most of the available space and a large, granite-topped central island with a sink and cupboards. The kitchen contains an abundance of appliances, while special touches such as plinth lights under the cabinets add to the contemporary ambience. The kitchen flows into an orangery that runs across more than two thirds of the house.  Sky lanterns, large windows and sliding glass doors allow light to flood in and make the most of breathtaking views of woodland, including a stately oak, and the countryside beyond. The orangery is the perfect place to sit and relax or entertain and opens out onto a south-facing terrace.  A feature woodburning stove creates a warm environment during cooler times of the year and this versatile space can easily accommodate a dining table. Lying off the orangery is a cosy, more intimate sitting room with bespoke bookshelves and its own view. It’s a great space for watching television. Two rooms sit either side of the entrance hall. One is currently used as a ground floor bedroom while the other has been fitted out as a home cinema. Completing the downstairs layout is a fitness wing that’s a sanctuary for relaxation, with a gym, sauna and steam room. There’s a large utility room with colourful fitted cupboards that provide plenty of storage space, and a WC too. Planning permission is in place to create a swimming pool extension with a plant room and changing facilities. The four upstairs bedrooms are large, luxurious and all have their own boutique hotel-style en suites and built-in storage space.

Angelton Hall has been remodelled, refurbished and extended in recent years and is immaculately decorated throughout. It benefits from fast-speed broadband.   Step outside Angelton Hall’s gardens and woodlands are private, beautiful, tranquil and home to a wealth of wildlife. They contain several mature shrubs and trees, including a spreading oak that’s among the jewels of the property. Beyond the house there are vast lawned areas on which a children’s treehouse, climbing frame, swing, slide and 25m zip wire can be found, along with a large, heated summerhouse that’s reached by a long, meandering path. Closer to the house is an extensive, south-facing terrace that ends with a rill-like water feature. Both the house and gardens are perfect spaces for entertaining friends and family, while the woodland and lawns provide all the ingredients for enchanting childhoods. Outdoor lighting makes this space even more magical during the evenings. Access to Angelton House is through a pair of impressive brick pillars fitted with electric gates, which lead into a sweeping driveway. There is extensive parking and a double garage. Sellers Insight “Angelton Hall has been our home for the last two years, and from the moment we drove through the gates, we knew it was somewhere special.” “What first drew us to the property was the location. It's incredibly convenient, just minutes from the M4 and around twenty minutes from Cardiff, making trips to London easy, but when you arrive home, you feel like you're a million miles away from everything. The first time we visited, it honestly felt more like arriving at a luxury boutique hotel or private country estate than a family home.” “Since moving here, we've poured so much love into the house. We have completely modernised it throughout and added lots of personal touches along the way. One of my favourite projects was recreating the beautiful lighting style of my favourite Raffles Hotel in the hallway. We've wanted the house to feel elegant, dramatic and luxurious, whilst still being somewhere family and friends instantly feel comfortable. Every improvement has been done with care and to a high standard because this house deserved nothing less.” “There are so many rooms I love, but the orangery and gym are probably my favourites. The orangery is one of those spaces that can be anything you need it to be. We've held business meetings there, hosted huge parties and celebrations, and spent many quiet evenings with family. In the winter, with the fire lit and a glass of wine, it feels incredibly cosy and peaceful.” “The gardens have brought us just as much joy as the house itself. We have a zipline, a children's play park built around the trees, a summer house, swim spa, gym, sauna and steam room, along with a beautiful infinity water feature. The wildlife here is amazing also and we often see deer roaming.  The landscaping and lighting have transformed the garden and driveway into something really special, and the views are incredible. On a clear day, you can even see the sea in the distance. Despite all of this, the privacy is what we've probably appreciated most.” “Angelton Hall has been the perfect house for entertaining. With space for more than fifty cars on the driveway and no close neighbours, we've hosted some wonderful parties and celebrations over the years. It has become the house that family and friends naturally gravitate towards. We've hosted everything from family occasions to formal dinners with private chefs and work events. The summer house has been brilliant too, especially for giving the children their own space while the adults enjoy the main house.” “What will I miss most? Honestly, everything.  This isn't just a house, it's a lifestyle. We have loved every second of living here and it has been a truly wonderful family home.”
