This has been a wonderful holiday home for us for the past 10 years. There is nothing better than arriving here on a Friday evening after a busy week and being able to relax and enjoy the views. We are just across the road from steps down to the fantastic Blue Flag West Bay and in the summer months we spend as much time enjoying the beach as possible. During our time here we have update and extended the property to create the amazing home you see today, which is just ready for new owners to walk into and not have to do anything except install their furniture. We also designed it to be very low maintenance and is very much a ‘lock up and go’ house if you want it as a holiday home, but it can equally well be a very special permanent home for a large family revelling in the location. Westgate is a lovely seaside town and the station is within easy walking distance with the fast train to London taking just over an hour and a half. Westgate is also a very friendly community with a village like atmosphere. It has some charming and individual shops including a unique parade of individual canopied shops and cafes as well as an excellent and inexpensive cinema, a golf course and some very good restaurants in the vicinity including the Michelin recommended Quince. The Blue Flag beaches at West Bay and St Mildreds are wonderful for walking the dogs in the winter and swimming in the summer and, if you enjoy cycling, there are a number of excellent routes including part or all of the 32 mile stretch of coastline from Ramsgate to Reculver via the Viking Coastal Trail. There are also two very good secondary schools in the area as well as a number of well-respected primary schools with grammar and private schools available in Broadstairs, Ramsgate and Canterbury. Road links are very good with access to the Thanet Way for Canterbury and London while, for more in depth retail therapy and entertainment, there is the Westwood Cross shopping centre with its plethora of high street stores and restaurants, casino and bingo hall.

With a rich history, this enchanting Grade II Listed manor is peacefully situated, offering splendid south facing views over the rolling Devon hills. The main house features six bedrooms, including three generously sized suites, along with an additional substantial four bedroom detached barn conversion. Set within three acres of parkland, the property exudes grandeur and presents a wealth of versatile living and income opportunities. Blagdon Manor is a Grade II Listed home dating back to the Tudor period, with significant later additions from the Georgian era. Featured in the Domesday Book, it stands as one of the most important residences in the historic West Devon parish of Ashwater. Today, this property would suit those seeking a luxurious lifestyle, with the added benefit of approximately three acres of delightful parkland gardens surrounding the home, from which fine views towards Ashwater can be enjoyed. The residence exudes elegance, architectural flair, and charm, and offers a wealth of character alongside many modern comforts, including outstanding bespoke oak cabinetry. A large four bedroom detached barn, located across the courtyard, also boasts considerable character. It has previously been used as holiday accommodation, generating valuable income, and enjoys its own level and enclosed garden space. Our clients have lived at Blagdon for around eight years, during which time they have carefully and meticulously transformed it from a boutique hotel and restaurant retreat into a superb private residence. This transformation is now virtually complete, allowing incoming purchasers the opportunity to add their own final touches. Regardless, the quality of this property should not be underestimated. It is being sold ready for immediate occupation, with no onward chain. The property is accessed at several points around its perimeter. The formal entrance on the eastern side leads into an inviting hallway, featuring an impressive original slate floor that immediately sets a refined tone. The main sitting room is both bright and welcoming, with dual aspect windows, including a bay and a large sash window, offering lovely views over the grounds. A striking polished marble fireplace with an inset wood burning stove creates a beautiful focal point. Built-in cupboards provide additional storage. Adjacent to this room is a large home office. It features an extensive array of built-in cabinetry, with shelving, storage and a desk, along with the original functioning safe. This room is ideal for remote working and has space for more desks or workstations if needed. The formal dining room adds further charm, with wooden flooring, a dado rail and a feature fireplace that includes a substantial wooden lintel and a carved stone dated 1683. Planning consent is already in place to reconfigure this room into a new kitchen, which would transform it into a light and spacious central hub. The conservatory wraps around the east and south elevations of the house and is currently used as a gym and sitting room. As a conservatory has been here for many years, it is highly likely the local authority would support an application for a replacement structure as it doesn’t form part of the listing. The existing kitchen is fitted with stainless steel units, an electric oven, dishwasher, induction hob, two sinks and a powerful extractor hood. This space has potential to be converted into a gym, studio or leisure area if the kitchen is relocated. In the historic west wing of the house, two further reception rooms provide both atmosphere and character. The sitting room features a superb slate floor, an inglenook stone fireplace with an inset wood burning stove, a window seat, huge original hand crafted beams and an historic slate scald creamery. Bespoke oak carpentry includes built-in shelving, cupboards and radiator covers. The sitting room flows into the dual aspect library, which houses two large bookcases, fitted cupboards, and a traditional stone fireplace with a clome oven. French doors open directly to the garden, bringing in natural light and providing easy access to the outdoors. This wing also benefits from its own entrance with porch and a newly fitted kitchen with integrated appliances including an electric oven, induction hob, microwave and dishwasher. Stylish display cabinets and a quality work surface complete the space. As this part of the house is self-contained yet connected, it is ideal for extended family, holiday letting, guests or those looking for independent living within a larger home. The property also includes a dedicated cinema room with tiered seating, sound conditioning, lighting design, 4k projection and 7.1 surround sound provided by a very high spec active/passive behind the screen speaker system. AV equipment and seating to be included at the guide price. Completing the ground floor are a walk in pantry with cooling system, a utility room, two separate WC’s a workshop and a lobby with extensive storage. Two staircases lead to the first floor. The principal staircase is of generous proportions with two half landings, an elegant feature that leads to an extensive landing and six en-suite bedrooms. The first three bedrooms are particularly spacious. Each is beautifully presented with super king size beds and enjoys wonderful views over the gardens and surrounding grounds. The impressive master suite has a combined floorspace of over 580 sqft comprising a lobby, dressing room, bathroom, walk-in shoe store, and very generous main bedroom which is dual aspect with far reaching views over the Devon countryside. A bold use of colour, beautiful built in wardrobes and WiFi controlled lighting design combined with its location in the eastern wing of the house create a uniquely private and luxurious retreat for the owners of the manor. Each bedroom is individually styled, tastefully decorated and full of charm. Many of the high quality beds, mattresses and furnishings are recent purchases and may potentially be available by separate negotiation. The property has been redecorated throughout using premium paints from brands such as Zoffany and Benjamin Moore. Newly fitted carpets unify the house while allowing each room or suite its own distinctive style and character. Many of the shutters remain in working condition, and the house is warmed by oil fired central heating with recently fitted boiler. Blagdon Manor Barn Tucked just a few steps from the covered cobbled courtyard of the main house, across a private exterior courtyard, Blagdon Manor Barn offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of history - beautifully restored for modern living, yet rich in character. With its picturesque, wisteria clad, stone façade and centuries old origins, the barn immediately captures the imagination.

Inside, the barn impresses with a bright, open plan layout that feels both sociable and serene. The main living area is nothing short of stunning, featuring a soaring vaulted ceiling that floods the space with natural light.

The spacious dining area comfortably accommodates a ten seat dining table and opens directly onto the garden via French doors - perfect for entertaining or relaxed summer evenings. The thoughtfully designed kitchen is a true centrepiece: dual aspect, with handmade solid oak cabinetry, granite worktops, a breakfast bar and a full suite of integrated appliances including electric oven, microwave, two under counter fridges, and dishwasher. A double butler sink and an Alpha range style cooker complete the luxurious, country-inspired feel. Also, on the ground floor is a separate utility room with washing machine, tumble dryer, integrated freezer and a convenient WC. Upstairs, the barn cleverly divides into two private wings, each accessed by its own staircase. The main sleeping area includes two generous super king bedrooms and one double.

Few homes in the East Midlands command the presence, scale, and quiet sophistication of Lion House. Discreetly positioned behind private gates along the prestigious Stoughton Lane, this extraordinary five-bedroom country residence offers over 4,500 sq ft of refined accommodation across three floors — a home where architectural elegance, considered design, and rare development potential converge in one of Leicestershire's most coveted addresses. An Arrival That Sets the Tone: The gated approach and mature grounds create an immediate sense of arrival. A beautifully framed front porch — warmed by underfloor heating beneath parquet flooring and flanked by large picture windows — opens into a grand central entrance hall where the home's character asserts itself with quiet confidence. This is a home that rewards from the very first step inside. Principal Reception and Living Spaces: Designed for those who entertain with ease and live with intention, the open-plan kitchen and living area forms the true heart of Lion House. A substantial central island, generous proportions, and garden-facing doors create a seamless interplay between interior and exterior — perfect for curated gatherings or relaxed family living at the highest level. A boot room, utility room, cloakroom, and secondary rear entrance ensure that practicality never compromises elegance. Three further principal rooms — a handsome study, a lounge with feature fireplace, and a tranquil conservatory — offer versatility and refinement in equal measure, each thoughtfully positioned to maximise both light and outlook. Exceptional Flexibility Across Three Floors: A private staircase adjoining the kitchen leads directly to the first floor's vast games room — a truly remarkable space, independent in access and limitless in potential. Whether configured as a private cinema, fitness studio, creative atelier, or self-contained guest suite, this room alone elevates Lion House into a category of its own. The cellar level presents two generously proportioned rooms with excellent ceiling height — naturally suited to a prestige wine cellar, private gym, or recording studio. The substantial integral garage offers further conversion scope, with potential for a private gym, cinema, or self-contained annexe, subject to the necessary permissions. The Principal and Guest Suites: The first floor sleeping accommodation is as refined as it is functional. The principal suite is a genuinely serene retreat — spacious, garden-facing, and served by a beautifully appointed ensuite befitting the home's calibre. Two further bedrooms each benefit from private ensuite bathrooms, ideal for discerning guests or family members seeking their own sanctuary, while the remaining two double bedrooms are served by a sumptuous family bathroom complete with freestanding bath and walk-in shower. A Vision for the Extraordinary — Leisure Complex Potential: Perhaps one of the most compelling aspects of Lion House is the rare and significant development opportunity it presents. Planning permission was previously granted on the side of the property for a private leisure complex — encompassing a swimming pool, sauna, and associated facilities — a testament to the site's exceptional scope and the local authority's recognition of the property's unique setting. While that permission has since lapsed, the precedent it establishes is invaluable. Prospective purchasers with a vision to create a truly world-class private residence — complete with resort-style wellness and leisure facilities — will find in Lion House both the space and the planning history to support such ambitions, subject to obtaining the necessary consents. The previous approved plans are available to share with serious applicants, providing an outstanding foundation for any future application. For the discerning buyer seeking not merely a home, but a private estate tailored entirely to their lifestyle, this potential is extraordinary. Location — Prestige, Privacy, and Connectivity: Stoughton Lane is one of South Leicestershire's most prestigious addresses, and Lion House occupies it with quiet distinction. The village of Stoughton offers a rare sense of rural tranquillity, while Oadby, Evington, and the exclusive Stoneygate neighbourhood are all within moments. The area's educational landscape is outstanding — Leicester Grammar School, Stoneygate School, Beauchamp College, and Manor High School are all within comfortable reach. Leicester city centre lies approximately five miles distant, with direct access to the A47, A6, and A563. Leicester Railway Station connects to London St Pancras in just over an hour — an effortless commute for those with interests in the capital. Stoughton Grange Farm Park and miles of unspoiled Leicestershire countryside complete a lifestyle offering of exceptional breadth. Property Highlights - Over 4,500 sq ft of distinguished accommodation across three floors - Five double bedrooms, three with private ensuite bathrooms - Previous planning approval for a private leisure complex including swimming pool and sauna — previous plans available upon request - Vast independent games room with enormous lifestyle potential - Grand open-plan kitchen and living space with direct garden access - Lounge with feature fireplace, conservatory, and dedicated study - Cellar with two substantial, usable rooms — ideal for wine, wellness, or studio use - Large integral garage with conversion and annexe potential - Private gated driveway set within mature, well-screened grounds - One of Leicestershire's most prestigious semi-rural addresses with outstanding transport links Lion House is a home of rare distinction — offering the space, serenity, and extraordinary potential that discerning buyers so rarely find combined in a single property.

SUN HOUSE Originally commissioned and constructed in 1937 for a local business owner, the design of Sun House was undertaken by award-winning architect Raymond Myerscough-Walker. Known for his architecture, Raymond was also a talented perspectivist, painter and sculptor. The influence of this wealth of creativity is evident throughout the design of property and its importance to historical England is recognised by its Grade 2 star listing – an accolade reserved for homes of true distinction. Since its conception, Sun House has gone on to feature in many books on modernist architecture as well as being listed in 2005 in The Independent’s Top Ten Modern UK Homes. Enjoyed by only 3 previous owners, it is evident that Sun House is not just a property of impressive design, but also a property which has been thoroughly enjoyed as a family home. THE ACCOMMODATION As you would expect from the name, one of the key design considerations to Sun House is maximising the light gained from its elevated position and fantastic predominantly south-facing orientation. As soon as you enter the house you start to appreciate the considerations taken to maximise this light, as well as the plethora of original features that can be found throughout the property. The ground floor offers spacious and practically arranged accommodation to suit family living with accommodation, in brief, comprising of: entrance lobby, an open dining reception hall, formal living room with an incredible semi-circular glazed aspect overlooking the gardens, kitchen offering a tasteful blend modern fitments and appliances as well as traditional cabinet integrated through granite worktops, WC/ cloaks, generous understairs store and an externally accessed utility area. The first floor is accessed via a fabulous spiral staircase forming the spine of this home. Once on the landing, you can find 4 well-proportioned bedrooms which all enjoy lovely aspects, a family bathroom, separate WC and a truly impressive balcony area which offers ample space for lounging, dining and entertaining, all while enjoying the very special outlook. The crown jewel of the home is undoubtedly found on the second floor. Continuing up the main spiral staircase, at its top you are greeted by a glazed atrium with a phenomenal terrace wrapping around. Offering the most incredible 360-degree views over Nottinghamshire, it creates an additional area to sun lounge in privacy, relax or entertain.

Nestled just beyond the historic village of Kings Cliffe and adjacent to a remarkable ancient quarry, now a stunning protected landscape – whose stone was once used to build cathedrals and stately homes – The Stables is an exceptional barn conversion that blends timeless character with the finest in modern living. This now-protected landscape offers not only natural beauty but a unique and storied backdrop to an extraordinary home. Completed in 2021, this meticulously executed conversion has transformed a former agricultural building into a striking, light-filled residence, where architectural integrity and original features – such as exposed oak beams, cornerstones, and vaulted ceilings – have been seamlessly preserved. The result is a harmonious fusion of heritage and high-specification design. Thoughtful glazing throughout the living areas makes the most of the views of the beautifully landscaped garden, increase the feeling of space and light and allow an easy flow between inside and out, whilst the semi-open plan design of the main living areas is well suited to contemporary life. The home offers predominantly lateral living, with all principal reception spaces and three of the four bedrooms situated on the ground floor for ease and accessibility. Upon entering, you’re welcomed by a harmonious palette of natural tones and an abundance of daylight that floods the interiors, enhanced by multiple Velux windows. The result is a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout. At the heart of the home lies a stunning open-plan kitchen and dining area, fitted with high-quality bespoke cabinetry and premium appliances and a sizeable island with breakfast bar – an ideal setting for entertaining and family gatherings. Adjacent to this space is a formal reception room with a feature cylinder wood burner that provides a warm and serene ambiance. Both rooms are enjoying vaulted ceilings with exposed beams and framed by a wall of French doors that open onto the patio terrace, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow. A further reception room – currently serving as a TV snug – offers flexibility for use as a home office or study. Practical elements are equally well considered, with a separate utility room located just off the kitchen, along with a guest WC. The bedroom accommodation is thoughtfully separated from the main living areas to ensure peace and privacy. Three bedrooms, including the principal suite with its own en suite shower room, are arranged on the ground floor alongside the beautifully appointed family bathroom. A fourth bedroom – currently used as a home office complete with bespoke fitted furniture – is tucked away on the first floor, offering a quiet and private workspace or guest room as needed. Set within a quality development of four individual barn conversions, the property is accessed via a shared drive that leads through private electric double gates to a private gravel parking area, adjacent to an English Heritage timber garage and workshop. The boundaries are clearly defined by retaining walls topped with tall hedges, ensuring seclusion and privacy. The garden is a sunny retreat designed for low maintenance, featuring a beautifully manicured lawn, raised vegetable beds, an Alitex greenhouse, and a generous patio terrace that runs the full length of the house – perfectly positioned for alfresco dining and capturing the last golden rays of the evening sun. Positioned less than a mile from the heart of Kings Cliffe, the property enjoys a peaceful, semi-rural location without sacrificing convenience. Kings Cliffe itself is a highly desirable village, known for its attractive stone architecture and excellent amenities, including a primary school, post office and village store, bakery, greengrocer, doctors’ surgery, a characterful pub with dining and rooms, and a newly built community sports centre. Set along the Willow Brook in rolling countryside, the area offers numerous walking trails and a strong sense of community. The location is exceptionally well connected, with the A1, A47, and A43 all easily accessible. The market towns of Stamford, Oundle and Uppingham are each within a 15-minute drive, while Peterborough – with direct trains to London in approximately 50 minutes – is just 20 minutes away.

Turn the key, walk in, unpack… there’s nothing left to do, besides sit back, relax and enjoy it all. The transformation is remarkable, craftsmanship is impeccable, the result extraordinary. This fabulous contemporary single level property has been virtually rebuilt as well as massively extended. Both inside and out, every element has been either renewed or added as new, the present structure bearing no resemblance to the tired and dated bungalow that occupied this elevated corner plot before. Inside the centre piece is the substantial open plan living space, delivering an absolute WOW factor, chic, streamlined, sociable and stylish, it’s a room for cooking and eating, for entertaining and being together, as well as being quiet and reflective. There are three king sized bedrooms, an ensuite shower room (with generous space to create a second if required), a family bathroom, a utility room and spacious entrance hall. Both in the sleek kitchen and the contemporaneous bathroom and shower room, the fixtures and fittings are high specification and skillfully selected. Flowing throughout the property the harmonious colour palette of greys and neutrals is carefully curated and will prove an easy backdrop for your furniture, art and pictures. Surrounding the property are fabulous landscaped gardens, purposefully designed to offer maximum enjoyment with the very minimum of upkeep – with no lawns to mow there should be plenty of time to enjoy barbecues and outside dining on the large seating terrace or a glass of something chilled in the hot tub. There is parking for two or three cars as well as a single garage. Tucked away in a quiet, well regarded and long established residential enclave, Windermere village itself is within walking distance for everyday needs and thereafter this is a great location for exploring the wider Lake District. Bought in 2022, transformed over 2023 – 24, here at No. 22, well regarded Windermere based building contractor Dean Adams has brought a wealth of knowledge and experience to the project, undertaking all the hard work so that you don’t have to. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to relax and enjoy. Location Quietly tucked away off the main thoroughfare on the outskirts of Windermere village, St Mary’s Park, named after the adjacent church, is an exceptionally convenient setting not only for day to day life but also as a base for exploring the wider glories of the Lake District. Already an easy walk along the main road to reach local services, a footpath also connects straight into the heart of the village and provides a handy shortcut.

The utility room has plenty of storage space with pale grey high gloss fronted cabinets and composite worktops, there’s space for a condenser dryer and plumbing for your washer. Walk into the living kitchen and it’s hard to know what to admire first, the fabulous kitchen or the views beyond through the wall of glazing. Inside and outside become one; the peaks of the fells are visible over the tops of the trees, the garden and neighbourhood trees provide screening for life inside. It’s a truly fabulous and exceptionally generous space. With a large and well equipped kitchen, a natural corner for dining and then a large area which would accommodate a number of seating configurations; one large statement sofa possibly or a smaller L shaped one in front of the fire with a couple of bespoke reading chairs positioned to admire the view, look out to the garden or watch the visiting birds. When it came to which kitchen company to choose, one brand was a clear leader as their design ethos and principals very much spoke for the style and tone of the entire property that was being created, SieMatic. Since they were established in 1929, SieMatic have been making kitchens that fit into creative living. The brand is synonymous with production quality of the highest standard, planning competency and innovation. Their website states “The SieMatic style world concept follows the currently most popular lifestyles and furnishing styles and makes it possible to respond flexibly, precisely, and in detail to your individual feelings about life, beyond rigid program structures.” The classic minimalism of the clean lines and restrained colour scheme provides an elegant living space where “an agreeable sense of balance is created through a generous use of surfaces and materials, as well as a freedom from decorative elements. An elementary simplicity which is equally understandable all over the world.” Cabinets are a subtle combination of pale and dark grey with Corian worktops. The island extends to a breakfast bar with space for three stools. Clever lighting and backlights enhance the design and ensure maximum atmosphere whatever the time of day or occasion. Now in situ, it was clearly the right choice as it effortlessly occupies a corner of this vast living area where feature windows and bi-folding doors provide wrap around views and a contemporary Globe 100 gas fire flickers gently within its low set rectangular box, it’s remote control, so you only need to lift a finger.

The main bathroom is a stylish affair, luxurious in appointment and finish. The statement oval bath is instantly inviting and if time doesn’t permit a leisurely soak, then the large rainfall shower is there, along with a floating vanity unit and loo. A few points to note when it comes to internal specification; Doors, bi-folds and windows are all new and are hard wearing, maintenance free aluminium finished with anthracite grey paint. Glazing is extensive and ensures that this is a light filled home with a feeling of airiness. Internal doors are contemporary styled with a light oak finish and chrome handles. The doors from the hall into the living area and the living area into the bedroom wing are both glazed to maximise light flow. All internal walls are painted in masonry paint to be as hard wearing as possible, whether you are thinking of holiday makers or have an active family life yourself, being able to wipe the walls down will be a future blessing. All three bedrooms would accommodate a king-sized bed and all have pendant bedside lights already wired. If you like to watch TV in bed then whilst there aren’t any sockets now, they could be easily installed if required. Both the bathroom and shower room are fully tiled incorporating illuminated recesses for storage and display. Both the showers have rainfall and second handheld shower heads, they also include illuminated mirrors, matt black heated towel rails, not forgetting the under-floor heating which runs throughout. Step outside The same care and attention to detail that has been lavished on the interior has also been generously employed outside.

Steps lead up to the front door where there is a seating area, east facing and perfect for a morning cup of coffee. A path then leads around to the main garden which is situated on the westerly elevation of the property. Here is a lawn for children to play, a seating terrace for outside dining and general relaxation and the hot tub, just the thing after a long day, it really comes into its own during the colder weather; twilight dips as the sun sets are glorious, whereas on a clear night under nothing but the stars the experience is exceptionally memorable. A path leads from the hot tub to the door into the main bedroom so you could go straight into the shower afterwards if you liked. Overall, it’s a great outside space for entertaining family and friends or just keeping to yourselves. The boundaries between indoor and outdoor become blurred during warmer months when the living area’s bi-folding doors can be opened up enabling the two areas to effortlessly combine. Outside, the painstaking choice of materials is well worth comment, externally much of the bedrock excavated to create the garden and parking area was then used to face the rebuilt elevations and retaining garden walls. The walls of the wrap around extension to the west is finished with composite cladding to be minimal upkeep.
