INTRODUCTION Occupying a private position on Higher Woodfield Road in the heart of Torquay, Mintons is an exceptional Grade II listed Victorian residence, dating back to circa 1834 and steeped in rich heritage. Once owned by the renowned industrialist Herbert Minton—whose pioneering work in ceramics and porcelain influenced design across the world and was ordered by Queen Victoria—the home carries a legacy that is both rare and remarkable. This heritage is beautifully expressed throughout, most notably in the exquisite encaustic tiles synonymous with Minton’s craftsmanship, showcasing intricate geometric patterns that echo a period of true artistic innovation. Architecturally striking, the property evokes an elegant Italianate charm, with grand, light-filled rooms flowing effortlessly onto private, landscaped gardens inspired by the Mediterranean. The atmosphere is one of timeless sophistication—where classical proportions, high ceilings, decorative cornicing, and original sash windows with shutters combine to create a home of enduring character. Despite its history, Mintons has been thoughtfully maintained and sensitively enhanced, offering a seamless balance between period grandeur and modern-day living. The accommodation is both substantial and versatile. The principal residence provides five generous bedrooms and six impressive reception rooms, including a conservatory and an orangery—ideal for both formal entertaining and relaxed family living. Complementing the main house are two self-contained apartments—a one-bedroom flat and a two-bedroom coach house—perfect for multi-generational living, guest accommodation, or income potential. The accommodation could be used as one residence as all connects, but could also be used as three self contained properties. Further benefits include a swimming pool, two garages, extensive storage, and a highly usable cellar incorporating a dedicated wine cellar—completing a residence that is as functional as it is beautiful. SELLERS INSIGHT “Mintons captivated us at first sight.  A welcoming, bright, and historic house with an attractive conservatory and orangery plus a unique pavilion. It’s more reminiscent of a villa on Lake Como but fits perfectly on the English Riviera. The location is ideal being just a short walk from the harbour (perfect for boat owners), the beautiful harbour / waterfront promenade and of course the restaurants and shops in the centre. It’s also just a few minutes walk to Meadfoot Beach with its café overlooking the bay and a little further on to Ilsham Green, where dogs and kids can run around and play. We were very impressed by the secure driveway with ample parking, the beautiful house and the privacy offered by the large garden with its swimming pool. Thanks to the mild climate we were finally able to create a garden filled with exotic and Mediterranean plants. Moving from a very modern house to this historic period house was exciting; to design the various rooms with high ceilings and ornate details - according to our vision while still preserving their historic character. The modern, spacious and bright kitchen is the perfect gathering place to treat family and friends with delicacies. Enjoying breakfast in the conservatory and watching the sun set in the orangery while having a drink is one of the highlights of the day. In summer we also thoroughly enjoy the garden, sitting at different places and look at diverse perspectives. The outdoor area with its various terraces is perfect for entertaining and pool amenities. Despite the central location nights are surprisingly quiet - often all you hear are the hoots of the owl. It’s such a privilege to live at Mintons and we are aware that we’ll possibly never find an impressive home like this again”  STEP INSIDE Set privately within its own established grounds in Torquay, Mintons reveals its scale and elegance from the very first moment of arrival. An enclosed entrance vestibule—now fully usable year-round—provides a refined introduction, where elegant arch detailing above the doors and windows immediately sets the architectural tone. A striking front door with handmade glass opens into a breathtaking reception hall, where the influence of Herbert Minton is unmistakable. Here, exquisite encaustic tiles adorn both the floors and walls, creating a rare and visually rich centrepiece, framed by high ceilings and continued arch motifs. The principal reception rooms unfold beautifully from the hallway, offering both grandeur and flexibility. To the front, a refined study features decorative coving, an original bookcase, sash window with shutters, and an electric fire—an ideal work-from-home space or quiet retreat. The drawing room is a statement of classic Victorian elegance, with parquet flooring, ornate cornicing, and tall sash windows that draw in natural light and frame views of the gardens beyond. This flows seamlessly into the formal dining room, where an elegant ceiling and bay window—with direct access onto the verandah—create a perfect setting for entertaining. From here, the accommodation continues into a charming music room, complete with inset arched shelving and wooden flooring, offering yet another versatile reception space. Curved doors from the dining room open into a beautifully appointed conservatory, fully glazed and fitted with blinds, with double doors leading out to the south-facing gardens and swimming pool. The adjoining orangery mirrors this connection to the outdoors, providing additional, light-filled seating areas ideal for both relaxed living and hosting.

Behind private timber gates and approached by a magnificent tree-lined driveway, Rookery Farm unfolds as one of Somerset's most compelling private country estates. Set within approximately 70 acres of beautiful Mendip countryside, this exceptional holding combines a substantial six-bedroom period farmhouse, a newly renovated three-bedroom annexe, extensive equestrian facilities, indoor leisure complex and over 11,000 square feet of agricultural warehousing, creating a rare opportunity to embrace an unrivalled rural lifestyle. Dating back to the 17th century, the handsome stone farmhouse forms the centrepiece of the estate, surrounded by mature gardens, open pasture and far-reaching countryside. Extending to over 8,000 square feet, the main residence effortlessly balances period character with modern family living. A welcoming reception hall, complete with a traditional turning staircase and galleried landing, leads to an array of beautifully proportioned reception rooms where stone fireplaces, exposed timbers and mullioned windows provide warmth, charm and a tangible sense of history. The kitchen and family room is undoubtedly the heart of the home; a space designed for modern country living where family breakfasts evolve into relaxed entertaining, and where the changing seasons are enjoyed through views across the gardens and estate beyond. Complementing the principal residence is a beautifully renovated detached annexe extending to approximately 1,159 square feet. Recently transformed to an exceptional standard, the accommodation blends contemporary styling with character features and includes a stunning open-plan living space centred around a striking Crittall-style internal door. Finished to a high specification throughout, the annexe offers three bedrooms and versatile accommodation perfectly suited to multi-generational living, guest accommodation, staff quarters or potential income generation. Leisure facilities are equally impressive. The indoor swimming pool complex and adjoining gym create a private wellness retreat, providing year-round enjoyment whilst opening onto the courtyard and beautifully landscaped gardens. Outside, the estate has been thoughtfully curated to create a landscape of beauty and practicality.

This is an exceptional opportunity to acquire two period homes in an idyllic setting, offering flexibility, charm, and scope for personalisation. Seller Insight As the fifth generation of our family to call The Old Rectory home, it is hard to put into words just how special this place is, say the current owners. Nestled in the heart of the village yet set back from the road in a wonderfully private location, this former Georgian rectory has been the backdrop to countless cherished memories. With its high ceilings, arched windows, and generous reception rooms, it has been a place of celebration, gathering, and quiet retreat. The house sits on an expansive plot, surrounded by beautifully maintained gardens that wrap around the property, the owners continue. The front lawn, once home to a grass tennis court, has hosted everything from village flower festival teas to family weddings. The rear garden extends down through the orchard to the river, where a landing stage and boathouse provide the perfect launch point for punting, rowing, and summer picnics along the water. The Wellingtonia tree, planted in the early 1850s to commemorate the Duke of Wellington, stands as a proud testament to the property's history. Inside, our favourite space has always been the drawing room, with its bay window and French doors leading out to the garden, the owners say. This is where we gathered as a family—four children, then grandchildren—to toast crumpets on the fire at Christmas; or with all of our friends and neighbours for our mother's famous Christmas parties for nearly 100 guests! The kitchen, remodelled in 2013, opens into a breakfast room and yard, linking to the boot room for practicality. Other upgrades include a full rewire in 2018 and a new lead roof on the sitting room bay window just last year. Beyond the main house, the Coach House offers independent living, thoughtfully converted by our architect uncle in 1976 and further enhanced in 2013 with a lift, an expanded kitchen-dining area, and a sitting room with French doors overlooking the river. It enjoys its own peaceful garden, making it a perfect retreat. The local area has much to recommend it, too. The village of Hemingford Abbots itself is an idyllic place to live, with a thriving community spirit centred around the church, village hall, and nearby pub. Excellent schools, both state and private, are within easy reach, and transport links to Cambridge, London, and beyond make this an ideal countryside escape with city access. From village regattas and footpaths leading to charming local cafés, to birdwatching on the common and National Trust sites nearby, there is a wealth of outdoor pursuits to enjoy. Village Information Hemingford Abbots is a highly sought-after conservation village, renowned for its charming period properties, historic church spire, and beautiful riverside walks. The village features the well-regarded Axe and Compass public house, while additional amenities, including a primary school, farm shop, and sports facilities, are available in nearby Hemingford Grey, just a mile away. Cambridge, only 14 miles away, is a global hub for high-tech and biotech industries, home to world-renowned research facilities, shopping, cultural attractions, and leading educational institutions.

Named after a nearby Iron Age fort, Woolbury is a striking contemporary country home that blends architectural ambition with easy family living. Designed by the Haddow Partnership and completed in 2004, it offers nearly 6,100 square feet of light-filled accommodation across three floors — a home as suited to everyday life as it is to entertaining on a grand scale. A further 3,450 square feet of outbuildings includes a self-contained studio flat and stabling for six horses. Set within professionally landscaped gardens and fenced paddocks, Woolbury delivers a genuine indoor-outdoor lifestyle. A gravelled drive sweeps up to parking for several cars and a detached double garage, above which sits a self-contained studio — ideal for guests, staff, or those working from home. The formal gardens unfold across two lawned levels, bordered by mature hedging and richly planted beds. A raised water feature and a two-tier terrace, pre-wired for lighting and sound, create distinct spaces for relaxing or entertaining outdoors. Beyond the garden, views stretch across the paddocks and the surrounding 1,400-acre Heath Estate in the Test Valley, with a footpath leading directly onto Stockbridge Downs. Step through the front door and the house announces itself immediately: an oval reception hall rises overhead, anchored by a timber-tread staircase with glass side panels and a stainless steel handrail. From here, the ground floor unfolds with a study wired for high-speed internet and opening onto the front garden via French doors, a guest cloakroom, a dining room that comfortably seats ten, and a triple-aspect games room warmed by a corner fireplace. The kitchen/breakfast room, fitted by Formwork Architects, centres on a large island and curved breakfast bar alongside an AGA, integrated appliances, and a walk-in pantry — flowing seamlessly into a striking conservatory beneath a mono-pitched glass roof, complete with a first-floor internal balcony and French doors onto the terrace. A utility room, boot room, and rear garden access complete the ground floor, with underfloor heating running throughout every level of the house. Upstairs, a generous landing leads to a triple-aspect sitting room with sweeping views over the Test Valley and its own corner fireplace. The principal suite offers a private balcony overlooking the stables, a fitted dressing room, and an en suite with both a shower and separate spa bath. Two further bedrooms — one with its own balcony, the other with extensive wardrobe space — share a well-appointed family bathroom. A spiral stone staircase climbs to the vaulted top floor, where two more large double bedrooms with built-in storage sit alongside a family shower room and a bright, galleried gym or quiet retreat above the sitting room. Linking it all is a glass-panelled bridge in a stainless steel frame — a genuine architectural centrepiece that floods the upper floors with light. The equestrian facilities stand apart from the main house, featuring an American-style barn with six Loddon loose boxes, a tack room, and a secure internal area for grooming and tacking up. An all-weather, flood-lit manège and post-and-rail paddocks complete a serious riding setup, while a separate outbuilding — with kitchenette, WC, a store which also houses a full-size generator with automatic mains changeover, keeping the property running through any power outage, and an open-fronted barn — offers flexibility for private or livery use, with scope for future commercial potential. Set in the heart of the Test Valley and bordered by the sweeping 1,400-acre Heath Estate, Woolbury enjoys the best of both worlds — genuine rural peace on its doorstep, with excellent connectivity close at hand. Stockbridge Down is within easy reach, while the cities of Winchester and Salisbury, along with air, road, and rail links to London and beyond, are all comfortably accessible. Nearby Stockbridge has long been known as the centre of trout fishing on the internationally renowned River Test, and today offers a charming mix of independent shops, cafés, restaurants, and pubs, alongside a well-regarded butcher and local hotel. Schooling options in the area are excellent, ranging from Stockbridge Primary and Danebury Secondary School (formerly Test Valley Secondary) to a wealth of independent choices including Farleigh, Embley, Godolphin, Pilgrims', St Swithun's, and Winchester College. For those commuting, the A30 provides swift access to the A303 and M3, while direct rail services from Winchester or Micheldever reach London Waterloo in as little as 57 minutes.
