luxury real estate for sale England, United Kingdom (page 52)

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.

An additional bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, finished to an equally high standard, also accessed from the landing A further bedroom and bathroom, accessed from the landing, offer exceptional flexibility—either as a fifth bedroom for the main residence or as part of the adjoining Coach House. The Coach House itself presents a superb opportunity for multi-generational living or income generation. Connected internally yet capable of complete independence, it offers a fully integrated kitchen, dining area, and a striking vaulted living room with skylights, creating a wonderfully bright and spacious environment. A double bedroom with en-suite opens onto a private terrace, as does the living space, both enjoying elevated views.

Externally, the cobbled courtyard—once used for horse-drawn coaches—adds further character and provides access to a garage, large workshop, and tool shed.

Desford LE9 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 predates the Norman Conquest. In one of many Enclosure Acts of the eighteenth century the predominant farming community were forced to become invested with industrial economics and 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 and then to freight in 1984. A half winding wheel on Lindridge Lane is 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 is 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 equestrian enthusiasts, Rookery Farm offers an exceptional setup with traditional stabling extending to approximately 1,713 square feet, paddocks, field shelter and planning permission for a full-size arena. The surrounding acreage provides excellent grazing and riding opportunities, making the property ideally suited to both leisure and professional equestrian pursuits. A particularly valuable feature of the estate is its extensive agricultural infrastructure. Modern warehouse and agricultural buildings extending to approximately 11,346 square feet provide outstanding storage and operational capacity for farming enterprises, machinery, livestock management, equestrian operations or wider rural business interests. Few residential estates offer such a substantial and versatile agricultural asset alongside luxury family accommodation. The approximately 70 acres comprise a diverse mix of pasture, productive agricultural land and newly established woodland, creating both an attractive landscape and a practical landholding capable of supporting a variety of rural pursuits. Footpaths meander through the estate, inviting exploration and providing a deep connection to the surrounding Mendip landscape. Offering over 23,000 square feet of combined accommodation and estate buildings, Rookery Farm represents far more than a home. It is a complete country estate where family life, equestrian ambitions, agricultural interests and countryside living come together in perfect harmony. Positioned within easy reach of Wells, Bath and Bristol, this is a truly rare opportunity to acquire one of Somerset's most significant private rural residences.

Location: Coulsdon South mainline and Chipstead stations are within 1.5 miles providing routes to London Bridge, Victoria, Gatwick and the south coast.

In terms of road communications the nearby A23 leads to the M25 (junction 7) and into London whilst, for the frequent traveller, Gatwick Airport is approximately 14 miles to the south. Locally there is a good choice of state and independent schools and the village is a vibrant location with a drama club and active sports clubs, including rugby, golf, tennis and football. The nearby towns of Reigate and Banstead also provide a comprehensive range of shops, boutiques, cafes and restaurants, including Waitrose and Marks & Spencer.

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.

The landscaped gardens are beautifully arranged with a variety of seating areas, including a covered deck with hot tub, thoughtfully planted borders, and a separate orchard/kitchen garden with a greenhouse and a beautiful pond with duckhouse. The land comprises two well-maintained paddocks with stock-proof fencing. The western paddock of approximately 1.1 acres benefits from a hay store/workshop, while the eastern paddock — measuring approximately 1.3 acres — features a field shelter, hardstanding and panoramic views over the surrounding countryside. Discreetly positioned with a high degree of separation, the Annexe is an exceptional, self-contained dwelling constructed with a timber and steel frame, allowing for vaulted ceilings throughout, and clad in low-maintenance cement fibre weatherboarding. Finished to an exacting standard, it comprises a spacious open-plan kitchen/living/dining area, two double bedrooms (one with en-suite), and a luxurious main bathroom. High gloss cabinetry and integrated appliances offer a modern feel, while LPG-fired central heating ensures year-round comfort.

A rare opportunity to acquire two properties - a distinguished five-bedroom period home with an additional detached three-bedroom property, both set within breathtaking gardens and grounds of nearly three acres, overlooking the picturesque River Great Ouse. The Old Rectory, a handsome waterside Grade II* listed residence believed to date from 1813, boasts elegant period features, including high ceilings, well-proportioned rooms, sash windows, intricate cornicing, exposed floorboards, and the original kitchen range. The accommodation comprises three reception rooms, five bedrooms, and two bath/shower rooms, offering a wonderful blend of character and space. The Coach House, a charming Grade II listed property converted in 1976, provides further flexibility. It features two reception rooms, three bedrooms, and two bath/shower rooms. A rare addition is the lift access from the ground to the first floor, making it an excellent choice for accessible living. The property also benefits from two independent office spaces, ideal for working from home or creating a separate studio environment. Set within magnificent mature gardens and grounds extending to just under three acres, the property enjoys stunning riverside frontage, providing a truly idyllic setting. A sweeping driveway leads up to the homes, offering ample off-street parking while ensuring privacy and a sense of grandeur. The central village location further enhances its appeal, making it an ideal residence for independent, multi-generational family living. 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. The nearby A14 provides convenient access to Cambridge and the M11, connecting to London, as well as the A1 to Peterborough and the M1/M6.

Hook Park House, a magnificent, detached home is tucked away within the exclusive Hook Park Estate on the edge of Warsash. Located on the sought after Hamble peninsula this is the largest home on the estate offering 4600 sq ft of living space surrounded by the kind of setting that most buyers only dream of - ancient woodland, protected nature reserve and short stroll from the shimmering waters of Southampton Water. On leaving Newtown Road in Warsash you will drive over a bridge into Hook Park and the house is approached from the route of the original carriage drive along a part gravelled private driveway. The original mansion, Hook House, built by William Hornby in 1790 was modelled on Government House in Bombay, where he was the Governor, on land given to him on his retirement by the British Government. Over the ensuing years the house was neglected by his descendants but early in the 20th century a new owner started a renovation project but it is likely that a fire was accidentally started by contractors working on the house and it was totally destroyed and never rebuilt. However, the Coach House, Orangery, and other staff cottages were untouched by the fire and have all been sympathetically converted to create 6 very unique homes in a quintessential, country house setting. The estate covers an area of approximately 5 acres of which just under 3 acres are for communal use by the residents and includes part of the original walled garden to Hook House which is now an orchard and another part which is a more formal garden with a long herbaceous border and central area with a dinning table and chairs and other secluded seating areas for the sole use of the residents. This home has been occupied by the same family since its completion 25 years ago and during that time has been modernised and extended to provide spacious multi-generational living for all ages. Upstairs there are 6 bedrooms, 2 of which share a full ensuite bathroom, 2 others share a full bathroom and the principal bedroom has a bathroom, dressing room ensuite and double aspect windows overlooking the garden. On the ground floor there is a welcoming entrance hall that leads to several reception rooms that include a drawing room with open fire, dining room, library/TV room, orangery, study and as the 'hub of the house' there is a large well fitted kitchen/breakfast room with central island unit and french doors leading to a large terrace for outdoor living which includes a built in charcoal barbecue. The accommodation has many features including atriums to the orangery and breakfast area which also benefit from underfloor heating. The remainder of the house has traditional gas fired central heating. There are solar panels on the roof to the rear, a Tesla Powerwall smart battery and double glazed windows. All the ground floor rooms facing the front have recently installed wooden shutters.
