Step inside The accommodation is arranged over three floors and offers impressive versatility. At its heart lies an outstanding ground floor large kitchen/diner, which includes an updated kitchen, vaulted and beamed ceiling and bi-fold doors which open onto a balcony area with beautiful views across the c.1.5 acre garden and beyond. On the lower ground floor, Ty Prif has an attached self-contained annexe including kitchen, lounge and bedroom with en-suite. The impressive first floor master bedroom suite includes a vaulted ceiling, dormer windows providing stunning views, separate seating area and a walk-through dressing room including fitted wardrobes. The large master en-suite includes a triple size walk-in shower with rainfall showerhead and under-floor heating throughout. The house’s versatility with its 6+ bedrooms (and external rooms) is particularly well-suited to multi-generational living or those requiring flexible work-from-home space. Step Outside Ty Prif is approached via remote-controlled electronic double gates (via intercom); the private driveway has parking for multiple vehicles including detached double garage. An OHME electric car charging point is adjacent to the annex/driveway. Ty Prif is also fully covered by CCTV. The house sits within mature grounds which extend to approximately 1.5 acres. They are predominantly laid to lawn and bordered by established hedging for a high degree of seclusion. The garden is set over three levels and includes a variety of trees and shrubs. At the top sits a sauna, storage sheds, and a large garden building including a hot tub with views over the countryside, plus storage units, office space and seating area. The middle area includes lawn and a large patio area, again perfectly positioned to take advantage of the views. The lower level includes a mature fruit orchard of apple, pear, plum and quince trees. Altogether, the outside space offers a rare combination of privacy, outlook and usable grounds. Sellers Insight Ty Prif has been a feature of the Monmouthshire landscape for nearly 200 years, just above the village of Llandegveth. When the owners first viewed, its stunning location plus the beautiful wrap-around garden first captured their attention; its three storeys offered potential to be transformed into the flexible, multigeneration home they were seeking. Ty Prif (Main house) was originally built as a farmhouse, c1840 and the current owners have embarked on a thoughtful, sustainable renovation that has enhanced the house whilst respecting its unique character. Practically, the owners updated services for the property – installing a ground source heat pump which provides both central heating and hot water which enabled plumbing to be upgraded throughout, including the addition of bathrooms/en-suites. Underfloor heating and air conditioning has been installed, bringing comfort and efficiency to every level. An annexe was added to the front of the house to unlock multi-generation family living. This can be accessed both separately and through the main house, and has a complete kitchen, bedroom with en-suite and a lounge with bi-fold doors, leading to a patio with fenced garden and views beyond. The owners enjoy spending time in the updated kitchen which has been thoughtfully designed to make the best of the stunning outlook; even in the winter or on an overcast day, there’s always something interesting to see (even if it’s the wild weather!). When you’re standing at the induction hob and island you can spot the local wildlife, from the red kites that circle above, to the pheasants and rabbits that frequent the garden. It is also a very practical and sociable space - on a recent memorable occasion, the owners hosted forty friends and family members there for a celebration. Each of Ty Prif’s three floors has been carefully redesigned to provide spacious and versatile accommodation. For example, the owners are currently using two ground floor rooms as offices, but these can easily be repurposed as bedrooms with a change of furniture. The result is a home that works beautifully for everyday life while offering the flexibility needed for extended family living. Outside, the owners have improved many external features, including installing remote-controlled gates and intercom - along with CCTV, electric car charging point and additional driveway parking. A large garden building now sits at the top garden level, including a hot tub and space for additional seating. The garden also benefits from the lower-level mature orchard which the owners have carefully nurtured and they will particularly miss the bumper crop of fruit each Autumn. For the owners, living in Llandegveth has offered the perfect balance between rural living and maintaining quick and easy access to the nearby towns of Cwmbran, Usk and Caerleon. Ty Prif has been a much-loved family home for the current owners. They have written their chapter as part of the house’s history; now they are ready to handover the pen for someone to write the next instalment in this remarkable house’s story.”* Directions What3words///loops.ulterior.awoke https://w3w.co/loops.ulterior.awoke

Thoughtfully designed and meticulously constructed over a five year period (2012– 2017); a truly exceptional new-build home, designed in the style of a traditional farmhouse and crafted using authentic, natural materials throughout. Every element of this beautiful property has been considered with care and executed to the highest standards, resulting in a home that balances timeless character with the ease and comfort of modern living. The accommodation briefly comprises a reception hall, boot room, cloakroom and plant room. Fabulous open plan living kitchen with utility room and pantry, separate sitting room, office, four ensuite bedrooms, fifth bedroom, shower room and large walk-in wardrobe. Lifestyle assets include a large games room including a second kitchen that’s designed for entertaining, a gym with adjacent shower room, media room, pool room, hobbies room, tennis court, large bbq hut and detached workshop. Landscaped gardens, extensive parking and an integral double garage. This is genuinely a high quality property for those that value time spent at home with family and would relish the opportunity to entertain at home in style. Vendor Insight It’s a great house for a family. There’s room for everyone to spread out but still be under one roof. We included a lot of attributes to keep everyone occupied and entertained, whether it’s just the family or when we’ve friends round. We’ve had pool tournaments and tennis parties, the media room is great for movie nights. The televisions are all purposefully away from the central living area so that they don’t dominate how we spend our time. Location Central to the community, the Lancashire village of Catforth has a school and hall which hosts a variety of classes, social events and drop in coffee mornings. For everyday essentials, there are local shops at Great Eccleston and Elswick. Whilst all different, the cities of Preston, Lancaster, Manchester and Liverpool between them offer a full range of commercial and recreational facilities including a vast choice of restaurants and great shopping. Culturally, there is a choice of theatres, cinemas and established arts and music scenes with festivals and events throughout the year. If you prefer somewhere smaller then the attractive towns of Garstang and Lytham are also convenient with supermarkets, thriving independent shops and a variety of places to enjoy a drink or bite to eat. The best of both worlds, rural but not remote, there’s nearby access to the M55 and M6 as well as a train station on the West Coast Main line at Preston ensuring that whether you need to travel for business or pleasure you remain well connected. If accessing the great outdoors is important to you then the protected National Landscape (formerly the AONB) of the Forest of Bowland offers many opportunities for outdoor adventure with an extensive network of lanes, footpaths and bridle paths for walking, running and cycling. There’s also good access to the Fylde coast’s exceptionally varied coastline; everything from wide sandy beaches, saltmarshes and nature reserves to bright lights of Blackpool; the tower, pleasure beach, piers and zoo amongst the many famous attractions. Vendor Insight The location is quiet as few people have the need to pass by, set behind the hedges, we have great privacy which we have valued and enjoyed enormously. Whilst rural, we never feel disconnected. With the new M55 links we are on the motorway in a matter of minutes, soon on the M6 and quickly into Preston. We’ve had to travel for work, often by train. Preston station is easy to reach and from there the journey time to London is just over two hours. Setting the scene Immediately the quality of bespoke craftsmanship is unmistakable. The aesthetic is one of contemporary country living; comfortable, quietly understated luxury, family friendly sociable spaces where quality of life is paramount. The specification features extensive use of oak throughout the house, including made-to-measure paneled doors, elegant custom-made staircases, double glazed window frames and French doors, Ted Todd engineered oak flooring, deep skirting boards with complementary architraves and window cills and exposed beams and roof trusses. The flooring and surfaces are finished with a variety of carefully selected natural stone tiles, echoing the surrounding rural landscape. The main kitchen is classically styled with timeless hand-painted cabinets from Simpsons of Greenfield Mill, Colne and the sanitaryware is high quality Duravit with Hansgrohe shower fittings. Although new build, certain elements of construction such as the flags and bricks were repurposed from heritage properties to give an appearance older than its years. The grand tour At the heart of the home is a spectacular open-plan living kitchen, where light floods in from all angles thanks to extensive floor to ceiling glazing. Beautifully appointed with handcrafted cabinets including a working island unit, breakfast bar and a concealed breakfast station and bar along with high specification appliances, this is a space made for modern family life - equally suited to quiet mornings, lively family meals or entertaining guests. Cook, dine and relax in comfort, with four sets of French doors opening directly onto the garden, the lines between inside and out become blurred. Double oak doors lead into a separate sitting room with a Contura wood-burning stove - a warm and inviting retreat, which can be opened to extend the living space or closed off for cosy evenings. Designed with both family life and working from home in mind, the house offers five bedrooms, four of which are located on the first floor, all having luxurious ensuites and two with walk-in wardrobes. Conveniently located on the ground floor is the fifth bedroom and a dedicated home office with oak fitted furniture, offering flexibility for multi-generational living or professional use. This is a home built not just for everyday living, but for truly enjoying time spent at home. The amenity provision is superb, the highlight being an impressive games room with its own kitchen, space to dine and soft seating gathered around the wood burner and large screen - a wonderful space for a get together. The basement floor offers something for everyone; a media room for watching a film or big match, a pool room with drinks station, gym, shower room, large walk-in wardrobe and a second home office or hobbies room. Smart home technology adds a layer of modern convenience and control, seamlessly integrated to enhance daily living. The plethora of storage provision is also a great asset, from boot room to pantry, linen store to walk in wardrobes, there’s plenty of space for all of life’s needs. The interior is strongly connected with the gardens, multiple sets of French doors and wide expanses of floor to ceiling glazing provide both an idyllic outlook and immediate access to the beautifully landscaped surrounds. Spacious, light-filled and filled with a stylish modern rustic aesthetic, Moss Cottage Farm is a truly rare find; a home that combines the warmth and the solidity of traditional rural architecture with every comfort and convenience for modern family life and entertaining at home. Vendor Insight The games room was designed to have the option to be an independent self-contained annex. There’s a separate access to the back parking area, a shower room and kitchen; we’d thought the living area could be subdivided to create a bedroom and had envisaged the space possibly for parents, bounce back teenagers or as a guest suite set apart from the family bedrooms. Step outside Outside, there are further options for year round entertainment and activity with a full size hardcourt tennis court (resurfaced in 2020), a hot tub and tucked behind a high hedge a barbecue hut. Inspired by the Scandinavian ‘grillkota’, this circular hut has inward-facing fitted bench seating around a central hearth, as well as an extension for freestanding furniture or sleepovers. It’s a warm and welcoming way of gathering, cooking dinner and enjoying together time around the fire. Flagged seating terraces wrap around the house and provide various opportunities for outdoor relaxation. Outside the games room is a large stone topped table ready for your own chairs or handy as a serving table. The terraces are of varying orientation being designed to catch the sun at different times of the day, creating spots for breakfast and morning coffee, long leisurely lunches and evening gatherings. The terracing provides the link between home and garden, all enjoying wonderful privacy. Clad in Virgina Creeper, a large wooden outbuilding has double doors, power and light. It is ideal as a workshop, a store for garden equipment, ride on mower or perhaps a smaller vehicle as there is narrow vehicular access via a grassed drive lined with willow trees. For those that take pleasure in growing their own vegetables there are two large, raised beds ready for planting. Through front and back secure gated entrances there is extensive parking available.

Renovations and improvements Newtown Grange Farmhouse is a home that has been restored and refurbished by its present owners over a period of ten years. The result is a distinguished property that combines heritage features and richly benefits from contemporary additions. It exemplifies a grand country estate property and is impressively set in its own grounds behind electric gates shielded from Desford Road. Grey rendered walls, multi paned sash windows and towering chimney stacks above a grey slated hip and valley roof, trigger the imaginative to wonder how many have seen and indeed visited this lovely property from its original construction in the 1800s. Through a series of renovations and improvements, this detached house offering five reception rooms and nine bedrooms over three floors has been sympathetically modernised for the 21st century by being thoroughly rewired (2015), installed with a central heating system and replacement windows. Within, the large rooms graced by natural light and Victorian features, have been plastered and decorated, and high quality integrated fixtures and fittings have enhanced the kitchen and bathing areas to add contemporary appeal. Newtown Grange Farmhouse is a home that has stood the test of time while preserving its architecture and appearance as an integral feature within the hamlet of Newtown Unthank. Situated six miles west of Leicester, here, you have a rare opportunity to invest in a house in an idyllic rural location that offers privacy and style, whilst enjoying the convenience of being only a short drive away from bustling towns – Market Bosworth or Desford - or further afield, to access major transport links to anywhere in the country from this central England location. Character and style Sitting on just under an acre of land, the house is approached through electrically operated gates and the driveway sweeps up to and across the front of the property. It is enclosed and landscaped with borders and planting, leading to a quadruple sized, detached garage, supplied with electricity. There is ample space for turning and parking, and when light fades, there are several outside lights with motion sensors for additional security and safety. The front entrance is through a glass door with semi-circular fanlight, mirrored by another window above the panelled mahogany interior door. High ceilings, classically inspired encaustic pavement and border tiling, dado railing and deep skirting boards create a powerful first impression. The Victorian reception hall was meant to establish the nature of the home and this one, wide and tall, is the central channel for the property, with reception rooms to the left and right. A magnificent galleried staircase is the focal point. It is an original, bespoke feature of the house. Made from mahogany, the embossed newel posts, handrail and carved balusters take the eye to the ceilings above where natural light cascades through the skylight. The staircase is carpeted and as elsewhere in the house, all carpets have been replaced. Beneath and behind the stairs and within a separate back hall, a separate door provides access to the cellar. This is a very large space and provides excellent provision for storage, having also been included in the renovation project and fit for purpose. An abundance of reception rooms and a ground floor bedroom suite Newtown Grange Farmhouse is a house with possibilities and options. There are five spacious, beautifully decorated reception rooms and their designated title and purpose is totally a matter of taste and preference. As standard, high ceilings with coving and central light fixtures, deep skirting boards and picture rails dividing plainly painted walls, emphasise the size and beauty of the large windows and airy rooms. From the reception hall, panelled mahogany doors open into the games room, lounge and sitting room. All of them are carpeted and have dual aspects looking into the grounds. In addition to the radiators, there are open fireplaces in each and in the snug. They are quite distinctive and have a range of hearths, mantel shelves and adornments. This abundance of independent but equally luxurious space would allow privacy if separate lounges are required. Likewise, the rooms could be altered to provide a study, library, office or playroom. The sitting room has French doors and access to a private lobby from where the downstairs bedroom suite is reached: a door to the left revealing a shower room and a door to the right opening into a large double bedroom with dual aspect views overlooking the garden. The shower room consists of a walk in shower with tiling to floor and walls, a hand basin and toilet. It has been designed to permit its valuable use as an ensuite bathroom but the inclusion of the dividing lobby means the room could serve many purposes. The cosy snug can be entered from either the games room or back hall. It has exposed beams, a laminate flooring and is next door to a downstairs cloakroom, consisting of a toilet and hand basin. As with all bathing facilities in this prestigious property, the quality, fitting and style of fixtures is to a high specification, with coordinating tiles and flooring. Lastly, the fifth reception room is the dining room. This is reached from the back hall and is in between the boiler room (also accessible from the downstairs bedroom) and kitchen. The room has delightful views into the garden through French doors that open onto a patio. Food preparation The kitchen has been completely refurbished to contemporary specifications. The bespoke arrangement of medium oak cabinetry for storage, quartz work tops for food preparation and integrated appliances – the dishwasher and ovens are included in the sale - have been cleverly arranged around a central island unit. The whole area is carefully styled and designed for practicality. A double sink unit is beneath one window while another reveals garden views. Flooring identical to the snug has been used here and splashback tiles in coordinating shades of grey and white compliment the contemporary neutrality of the room. The first and second floor bedrooms The first floor galleried landing is a fine feature of the property and re-emphasises the prestigious architectural merits of the building. On this floor there are six very large bedrooms, two of which have ensuite bathrooms and a separate family bathroom with shower cubicle. The second floor has two more spacious bedrooms and another separate shower room. Each of the bedrooms are generously proportioned and share similar qualities such as coordinating carpets and exposed beams. They also have distinctive features including fitted storage, fireplaces and outlooks. They have been decorated tastefully and maintained to a high standard of presentation. And to the garden Newtown Grange Farmhouse has an attractive, well maintained walled garden, with greenhouses, a large lawn, established fruit trees and plants of many varieties. The generous nature of the grounds beautifully compliments the house and adds its own special charm. LOCALITY Newtown Unthank is a hamlet. By definition the word ‘hamelet’ is often applied to a satellite of a larger settlement. To provide relevant locality information, the larger village of Desford has been focussed upon. Desford is a village situated in the south-west of Leicestershire, benefitting from all the merits of its countryside location while also being close to motorway and rail networks that crisscross this east Midlands region. It is only seven miles west 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 Desford, the closest motorway links are the M1 and M69 toward Enderby. There are train stations at Rugby for links to Birmingham and Narborough for links to Leicester, with trains running regularly from there to London St Pancras International. East Midlands Airport (EMB) and Birmingham Airport (BHX) are the closest airports. Desford or ‘Deor’s Ford’ was first recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 but is possibly of Anglo-Saxon origin, being based on a significant hill 400 feet above sea level. St Martin’s parish church dates from the late thirteenth century and the village centre has a selection of Grade II listed buildings including a timber framed manor house and service buildings from the 1600’s. The Baptist Church on Chapel Lane was constructed in 1866. All combine to mark the centuries that have passed in Desford, including the present development of homes. The original settlement 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. Then, with the dawn of the Industrial Revolution, came the railway. A railway station was built linking established lines to larger towns and cities. It was closed to passengers in 1964 but continued to be used for freight including the transportation of coal from the Desford Pit until it too closed in 1984. Members of the Desford Historical Society have erected a half winding wheel on Lindridge Lane as a permanent reminder of the era and today Caterpillar Inc. are a significant employer in the area, having repurposed the old Desford aerodrome. Today, the bustling village is part of the Harborough district of Leicestershire and is within a half hour drive of Enderby, Kirby Muxloe, Market Bosworth and Kirkby Mallory. Although it has existed for centuries, this large village continues to appeal to the community through a wide selection of sport, (Sport in Desford Clubhouse with new Scout hut and tennis courts) education and leisure amenities. There are an array of shops, a library, cafes, a pharmacy and parks. Public houses include The Lancaster close to the old railway station and the Bluebell Inn in the village centre. For more details this site may help: https://www.desford-pc.gov.uk For those requiring primary schools, Desford has its own: Desford Primary School. Wider afield secondary education can be found in Market Bosworth, Countesthorpe, and Lutterworth or at Leicester Grammar.

Located in the south Leicestershire village of South Kilworth, This Home is a property of distinctive style and design. Found at the top of a spacious private tarmac drive lined with tall graphite eco fencing, it is approached from Welford Road through black steel gates and along a driveway lined with lights and shrubs. It is an impressively individual building from the very first glance. Although it is only natural to try and imagine what this exceptional property has to offer, this is an original, and as such will undoubtedly deliver beyond expectations. This Stunning Home has been developed and personalised by the present owners over the last sixteen years. It is a residence that exudes modern characteristics and attributing features of architectural note. The main part of the building is in white render, accessorised with horizontal graphite windows, and a large chimney stack amidst a sweeping clerestory roof. It has been specifically extended and refurbished to add contemporary features, fixtures and fittings creating a split level house with an enormous one hundred metre squared bedroom extension connected to the main building through a glass link. In total, it has six bedrooms, a spacious open plan living area, gymnasium, triple garage and glass sided balcony, equipped with graphite pergolas below. By reconfiguring and adding to the existing structure, open space and versatility have been created in abundance within half an acre of grounds that overlook beautiful open farmland and countryside.

There is a pond with waterfall feature at the front of the building and well maintained landscaped gardens consisting of lawn, trees and shrubbery. The triple garage is cedar clad and has been deliberately personalized to coordinate with the main house, featuring pent roof and four automated doors. Once inside, the hallway captures the essence of the interior design; it is light filled and spacious, with subtle lighting fixtures, minimal decoration and natural textures. The floor is covered with large white gloss porcelain tiles: they run throughout the hallway and into the large bedrooms found via a glass extension on the left. The tongue and groove doors in the property are made from medium oak wood, accessorised with brushed steel furniture, and coordinate with the staircase/steps that lead from the hall into the wonderful living space beyond. Contemporary design for relaxation and comfort Here, there is a combination of lounge, dining room and kitchen. There are areas demarcated for specific purposes with the use of furniture or fixtures but the generous proportion of the living space, plus the views that surround it into the garden and beyond, create an exceptionally light and relaxing room that is the geographical heart of the home.

Directly above, there is one of two hidden entrances into the loft space, which has lighting, insulation and is boarded. A log burner has been positioned diagonally in the furthest corner of the living space – there is a covered cedar porch with log store close by - opposite to the open kitchen. The whole space is beautifully neutral and distinctively unique, with an easy relaxed vibe for everyday needs but with the capability for larger scale entertaining. The kitchen has three pairs of sliding anthracite doors. Two of them open onto the wide balcony. The covered balcony offers a fantastic extension to the living area and is decked with wood grain anthracite composite flooring. Here, purpose placed opaque glass affords privacy when using the hot tub, while the three metre by seven metre graphite pergolas can be opened or closed to suit. Within the bespoke kitchen, there is a sweep of worktop with space for double integrated appliances in cabinetry that is both practical and very fitting in this open plan arrangement of rooms. Stools fit neatly into one of the work surfaces and a steel extractor fan is ceiling hung from above the convection hob. The double ovens and dishwasher are included in the sale of the property. The dining area is at the side of the kitchen. Here there are two cabin windowed doors opening into a store on the left and a landing on the right. The landing leads to a staircase dropping to the rooms on the lowest level. The utility is below the kitchen – reached by going down the staircase – it is similarly fitted for storage, has an additional sink and provides plumbing for laundry appliances. There is also a pantry next door and the internal door to the snug. The snug is entered along a hall from the staircase and double doors opening onto the front of the property. The snug provides a wonderful addition to the home. Remember…there are six bedrooms From the original point of entry, instead of ascending the stairs to the living area, the bedrooms are on the opposite side on ground level. From the hall there are doors to two bedrooms at the front of the building and another at the rear. Presently, two of them are being used as separate studies. A family bathroom with separate toilet and basin are across the hall. Lastly, a fourth bedroom that has its own en-suite and doors that open into the garden. Another L shaped bedroom at the opposite end of the hall has a 4.5 metre window overlooking the front of the property. It is a spacious room and is fitted with mirrored wardrobes. The master suite of rooms making up the prime bedroom is at the furthest wing of the property. The extensive minimalist bedroom has windows on three sides and one with an electrically operated blind that stretches across the 4.5 metres of glass that looks into the garden and beyond. This prime suite has a bespoke dressing room with skylights, for him and her, and a designer minimalist en-suite by Lisa Melvin entitled ‘Rock Star’. This was featured in an edition of the Utopia kitchen and bathroom magazine and has a Hudson Reed wall-hung vanity unit with double basin, drawers and a three-panelled mirrored cabinet. There is a 3.6 ‘Dreamwall’ component behind the Waters Brook2 freestanding white bath and a supersize walk through rainfall shower, fitted with a Hansgrohe dance shower system and silver moon mosaic floor tiles. Graphite porcelain tiles are used elsewhere. The chrome finish radiator and towel warmer is made by Bisque and on skirting board level, the blue toned lighting reacts automatically with movement sensors. All fixtures and fittings in all the bathing areas of this Home have been tastefully selected for their contemporary design and fitted to high specifications. They all impress with the continuing theme of natural materials, a neutral palette and stunning attention to detail. Outside in the rear garden, a cedar clad summer house continues with the appearance of the house. There are landscaped gardens to enjoy and ever-changing, seasonal views looking out to open countryside. In all aspects tis impressive home undeniably fulfils the definition of exceptional: superior, superb and completely out of the ordinary,’ South Kilworth is a village in central England, a region referred to as the East Midlands. It is situated towards the southernmost extremity of Leicestershire being only a half hour drive from Leicester’s city centre. It is in the LE17 postcode district and is a civil parish. It falls within the district council of Harborough and is within easy reach of larger towns such as Lutterworth, Husbands Bosworth and Rugby, all providing a variety of amenities such as edge of town super stores or uniquely bespoke shops. Essentially, South Kilworth is geographically at the centre of an intersection of routes. The North Road takes you to North Kilworth and heading south on the Kilworth Road will lead to Welford. Heading south-west or north-west, will incur meeting the M1 at junctions 19 and 20, Rugby and Lutterworth respectively. From those points the M6 and M69 maximise the potential for speedier travel by road from this central Midland location. There are two railway stations within easy reach at Rugby and Market Harborough, with regular high speed trains to London Euston and St. Pancras taking a little over one hour. The nearest airports are East Midlands, Birmingham and Coventry. In times past, the Domesday Book of 1086 records a settlement known then as Cleveliord which many believe is referring to South Kilworth as it could mean hedged enclosure. There have been settlements in the vicinity since prehistoric times with later evidence pertaining to Roman, Anglo Saxon and mediaeval periods. The village was certainly established before the Norman Conquest, with a manor and farming community. There remains evidence of forridge and furrow cultivation in fields bordering the village. The church of St Nicholas is twelfth century in part but holds a clock tower installed as a memorial to the men of the locality who died fighting in the 1914-18 war. There are a number of historic houses in the village along the Welford and Walcote Roads dating from the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Today, the village hall located on Leys Crescent is the centre for many social activities, events and clubs. It has extensive sports pitches, a children’s playground, adult fitness equipment and a bowling green. As with many communities, people are interested to share points of communal interest and the South Kilworth monthly newsletter will be a good starting point for those new to the area. An excellent village website produced by the parish council also contains a wealth of information. www.southkilworth.co.uk There are several public houses and restaurants in or close by to South Kilworth: The White Hart, The Attic, White Lion or Black Horse to name a few. These serve locally produced food and ales. There is easy access to wider open spaces, with nature reserves and bridal paths within easy reach. Kilworth Springs Golf Club, Kilworth House Hotel and the Outdoor Theatre attract people to the vicinity, as does the North Kilworth Marina. Golf courses and equestrian centres are easily reached by car. There is a local primary school, South Kilworth Primary School but over a wider area there are several educational options; nursery, primary and secondary. South Kilworth is in the catchment area for the Rugby (Warwickshire) Grammar Schools. Other schools include the Rugby School, Leicester Grammar, Princethorpe and Oakham. There are also private establishments in the county offering bordering facilities.

The Property Tucked away on the edge of the legendary Sherwood Forest, White Lodge is a remarkable Grade II listed country residence whose history is woven into that of the prestigious Thoresby Hall Estate. Dating from around 1840 and once the home of Lady Sibell Pierrepont, daughter of the 4th Earl Manvers, the property combines the grace and craftsmanship of the Victorian era with the comfort and refinement expected of a modern country home. Over recent years, the current owners have undertaken an exceptional programme of restoration and enhancement, carefully preserving the home's rich architectural heritage while introducing an understated level of luxury throughout. Original period details have been sympathetically retained, allowing the house to celebrate its past while effortlessly accommodating contemporary family life. Set within approximately 1.3 acres of mature, private gardens, White Lodge enjoys an enviable sense of peace and seclusion, complemented by an impressive range of outbuildings, generous garaging and a beautifully appointed annexe, creating a home of exceptional versatility. Reception Rooms The approach immediately hints at the property's character.

An inner hallway, also accessed via the original vaulted entrance porch with its exposed beams and traditional tiled floor, leads to the formal dining room. Beautiful arched windows with original shutters frame views of the gardens, while intricate plasterwork, an ornate timber fireplace and an open gas fire combine to create an atmosphere perfectly suited to both elegant entertaining and family celebrations. Connecting seamlessly with the kitchen, the breakfast room is full of warmth and character. Original oak cupboards remain in place, while a cast iron fireplace, now home to a wood-burning stove, creates an inviting focal point for everyday living. Occupying the heart of the home, the bespoke breakfast kitchen has been thoughtfully designed to balance traditional craftsmanship with modern practicality. Hand-painted cabinetry, quality work surfaces and an electric AGA create a timeless aesthetic, while a traditional walk-in pantry, laundry room and original scullery—with its historic flagstone shelving still intact—reflect the home's enduring heritage. Beneath the house, the original cellars continue to provide excellent storage and now accommodate the newly installed central heating system.

The dual-aspect bedroom enjoys delightful views over the surrounding grounds, while the luxurious en-suite bathroom features a freestanding roll-top bath, separate shower, bespoke twin vanity unit, heated towel rail and a charming cast iron fireplace. Steps descend to an impressive dressing room fitted with an extensive range of wardrobes, creating an elegant suite reminiscent of a boutique country house. A second bedroom suite offers equally flexible accommodation, arranged over split levels to include a dressing room or sitting area and a beautifully renovated en-suite shower room. Three further double bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation for family and guests, complemented by a stylish family bathroom and a separate WC. The Annexe Positioned within the courtyard, the air-conditioned annexe offers exceptional flexibility, whether as guest accommodation, creative workspace, leisure facility or, subject to the appropriate planning permissions, independent living accommodation. Its open-plan kitchen and living area is beautifully appointed with handcrafted cabinetry, integrated appliances and an AGA, while French doors open directly onto a generous terrace, creating a wonderful connection between inside and out. A substantial 31-foot entertaining room offers endless possibilities, from games room and studio to private events space, with additional loft storage above accessed via an electric ladder.

A detached home office provides a peaceful and inspiring place to work, featuring engineered oak flooring, timber panelling, bespoke cabinetry and integrated desk space. An additional building has been transformed into a fully equipped home gym with mirrored walls, engineered oak flooring and a built-in sound system. Extensive garaging completes the impressive range of ancillary accommodation. Gardens & Grounds White Lodge sits beautifully within approximately 1.3 acres of established gardens, where mature trees and carefully planted borders create a wonderful sense of privacy throughout the seasons.
