luxury houses with panoramic view for sale United Kingdom (page 2)

Wild Winds represents a rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional private lifestyle estate in one of North Devon’s most desirable coastal countryside settings. Extending to approximately 6,500 sq ft, this impressive six/seven-bedroom contemporary barn conversion combines outstanding scale, privacy and entertaining space with proven income potential, all within easy reach of the region’s renowned beaches. Currently operating as an established luxury holiday letting business, with trading figures available on request, Wild Winds offers considerably more than a substantial private residence. It presents a compelling lifestyle and investment opportunity, appealing equally to those seeking a landmark family home, a coastal retreat with income or a distinctive property from which to build a successful hospitality business. The property is set within beautifully landscaped gardens and grounds extending to approximately three acres, enjoying sweeping views across the surrounding countryside towards the sea beyond. The grounds provide excellent privacy, generous space for outdoor entertaining and the potential for equestrian use, creating a wonderfully secluded setting in which to relax, entertain and enjoy the North Devon lifestyle. Arranged over two floors, the accommodation has been thoughtfully designed for contemporary luxury living. At the heart of the home is a spectacular open-plan living, kitchen and dining space, creating an impressive yet welcoming environment for family life, entertaining and holiday guests. Expansive proportions, high-quality finishes and carefully considered design combine to create a home of genuine presence and distinction. The first floor features a superb principal suite with its own private terrace, providing an idyllic retreat from which to enjoy the surrounding landscape and coastal views. The remaining bedrooms are equally well appointed, with five ensuite facilities supporting both comfortable family living and the property’s successful operation as a luxury holiday let. Further accommodation includes a dedicated playroom and a flexible media and playroom with a wall-mounted television, offering excellent potential to create a dedicated home cinema. These versatile spaces reinforce Wild Winds’ appeal as a property designed for relaxation, entertainment and memorable stays, while allowing future owners to adapt the accommodation to suit their own requirements. An Exceptional Additional Opportunity Available by separate negotiation is a neighbouring barn benefiting from planning permission for a further substantial contemporary conversion of approximately 7,500 sq ft, subject to confirmation from the approved plans. The consent is understood to have been secured under previous Class Q regulations and represents an increasingly rare and valuable planning asset, with comparable permissions likely to be considerably more difficult to obtain under current regulations. Importantly, the neighbouring barn is not included within the principal sale of Wild Winds and its approximately three acres. Instead, it provides an additional opportunity for a purchaser wishing to create the ultimate private estate, develop a second substantial residence, establish further guest accommodation or explore a wider commercial proposition, subject to the relevant consents and individual requirements. Additional adjoining land may also be available by separate negotiation, further enhancing the flexibility and long-term potential of the wider estate. Wild Winds is therefore not simply a large coastal home. It is a highly unusual and versatile proposition: a private country estate, a luxury entertaining house, a proven holiday letting business and, for those wishing to expand, an opportunity to acquire a neighbouring development project of exceptional scale and rarity. Opportunities offering this combination of lifestyle, income, privacy and future potential are seldom available in the North Devon market.

History - Few houses can claim a history as rich or as influential as Holwood, and fewer still combine such pedigree with effortless modern living. The site itself is recorded as an Iron Age fort, Caesar's Camp, and has long been recognised for its strategic and scenic importance. In the late 18th century, Holwood became the cherished retreat of William Pitt the Younger, Britain's youngest ever Prime Minister, who commissioned Sir John Soane to remodel the house and transform the surrounding landscape. It was here, beneath a great oak tree in 1787, that Pitt famously encouraged William Wilberforce to begin the parliamentary campaign to abolish the slave trade. The house was later rebuilt in its current classical Georgian form by the celebrated architect Decimus Burton in 1827. Over the centuries, Holwood has welcomed an extraordinary roll call of visitors and residents, including Charles Darwin, who conducted experiments in the grounds, and Winston Churchill, who dined here regularly during the Second World War. Today, the house and grounds are Grade I listed, reflecting their exceptional historical significance. Location And Lifestyle - Holwood House enjoys an elevated, private position just east of the charming village of Keston, which offers a village hall, pub and post office. More extensive shopping can be found in Bromley, with Sevenoaks under 14 miles away. The area is renowned for its excellent schooling, with a wide selection of highly regarded independent and state schools within easy reach. Fast rail services from Orpington and Bromley South provide swift access into central London, while the M25 is readily accessible. Golfers are well served by nearby courses including Chelsfield Lakes, West Kent and Lullingstone Park. Biggin Hill Airport is just 1.7 miles away, with Gatwick and London City also within comfortable reach.

Seller Insight Built in the mid-1500s, The Old Cottage and surrounding land was once owned by renowned artist, Walter Dendy Sadler, and has featured in some of his paintings. He designed the gardens himself which, to this day, retain the same infrastructure in the flowerbeds and trees. We stood in the garden and were struck by the beauty, and it was this, along with the characterful, large rooms and sense of history that all came together and simply blew us away, recall the owners. The location was also very appealing as transport links are excellent. The setting is truly idyllic with unsurpassed views of the river, meadows, garden, churchyard, and church tower. Lake Ashmore, in the village, is perfect for open swimming. The village has lots going on and it's a great place for people of all ages to enjoy everything it has to offer, including the annual regatta where our sons earned their rowing skills and a love of the water for which we will be forever grateful. Just take a step out of the front door or through the garden gate and you will find yourself immersed in nature. From our garden gate we can access the river to drop ourselves in for a quick dip or canoe. The garden is secluded and not overlooked, so it lends itself to entertaining and we have naturally become the 'go to' place for work parties and gatherings with family and friends. The jasmine-covered pergola is a wonderful feature and we're surrounded by the divine scent whilst dining or relaxing in the swing chair. The addition of the breakfast room has been quite transformative in how we have lived in the house and it has been much loved by all. Panoramic views of the garden, trees, and length of the beautiful old part of the property provide a scenic backdrop for a room where we can sit and be at one with the scenery. We tend to gravitate towards the older part of the house as it has a very special ambience and characterful features, such as the double-sided inglenook. We've celebrated christenings and birthdays here, as well as our annual Christmas party when the dining room setting comes into its own. There are many serene spots in the house where we sit and lose ourselves in the peace and views of nature which are interrupted only by the occasional barge passing quietly by.
