Few properties exist that genuinely redefine what a home can be. Lakeside Lodge is one of them. A one-of-a-kind, four-bedroom barn conversion of extraordinary quality, set within approximately 1.72 acres of meticulously landscaped grounds in the peaceful rural hamlet of Shangton, Leicestershire. From the moment the electric gates open and the driveway unfolds before you, it becomes clear that this is something entirely exceptional — a home that seamlessly blends architectural character, natural beauty and refined contemporary living in a setting that simply cannot be replicated. The property offers a private lake, a magnificent large terrace, sweeping lawns, a commercially rated barn with workshop, a separate studio, two en-suites, a family bathroom and three generous reception rooms. Planning permission has furthermore been granted (Ref: 24/01159/FUL) for a fifth bedroom above the existing lounge — an exciting opportunity to further elevate this already outstanding residence. This is countryside living at its absolute finest. Accommodation The property is entered via a glazed door into a welcoming entrance hall with useful storage. To the right, the sitting room is a wonderfully comfortable space featuring a large bay window and French doors to the front elevation, framing stunning views across the lawns and lake. A feature fireplace with exposed brick surround, timber mantel and log burner inset creates a superb focal point. To the left of the entrance lies the impressive open-plan living, dining and kitchen space — a light-filled, statement room benefiting from two sets of bi-folding doors to the front elevation, skylights above and a glazed door off the kitchen to the rear courtyard garden. The kitchen is both stylish and functional, with fitted cupboards and drawers, granite worktops, a Belfast sink, an electric Range and a generous island unit providing further storage and a breakfast bar. There is space and plumbing for both a dishwasher and an American-style fridge freezer. Steps rise to the sitting area, which features a stunning vaulted ceiling with exposed King Trusses and a magnificent Inglenook fireplace with exposed brickwork, timber mantel and log burner inset. A good-sized storage cupboard is also found off this area. Steps lead from the sitting area into an inner hallway giving access to the bedroom accommodation.

The master bedroom suite is situated at the far end of the property and benefits from French doors to the front elevation, a dressing area with fitted wardrobes, and a luxurious ensuite comprising a wash hand basin, WC, rainfall shower and freestanding bath. French doors from the dressing area also open out to the private rear courtyard garden.

Stairs rise to the fourth bedroom — a generously proportioned room with four skylights, built-in wardrobes and eaves storage, served by a private ensuite shower room. Planning Permission — Fifth Bedroom Planning permission has been granted under reference 24/01159/FUL for the creation of a fifth bedroom above the existing lounge, designed by Ellis Architectural Design. The approved plans (Drawing No: SE/1545/2b) show a first floor bedroom with grey finish double glazed doors and a Juliet balcony to the front elevation, enjoying what will be an outstanding elevated view over the front gardens, sweeping lawns and private lake — a truly special addition to an already remarkable home. Prospective purchasers should refer to the approved planning drawings for full specification details. The Grounds — An Outdoor Setting Like No Other The exterior of Lakeside Lodge is every bit as impressive as the interior. A magnificent large porcelain patio terrace sweeps across the front of the property — a premium outdoor entertaining space on a grand scale, beautifully finished with multi-level steps, natural stone raised beds, specimen planting and integrated lighting. The terrace connects directly to the bi-folding doors of the main reception space, creating a seamless flow between inside and out that is perfect for entertaining, al fresco dining or simply enjoying the remarkable surroundings.

The private lake is simply magical.

Lots of space & light? A bit of the Good Life? Sounds good? We may just have the home of your dreams… Hebe House, The Lea is a stunning property, surrounded by rolling fields and a real feeling of space. This large, seven-bedroomed, detached family home is nestled in 1 acres (approx.) of beautifully landscaped gardens. It has the best of both worlds – it’s away from the hustle and bustle of the outside world, yet an easy commute to local towns and the city of Leicester. The conservation village of Burton Overy has long since been regarded as one of the most sought-after areas within rural south Leicestershire. Surrounded by rolling countryside and in close proximity to Leicester city centre, the village has a church, public house with a good restaurant and an active community centring around the village hall. Market Harborough and the city of Leicester are around ten miles away, both offering a wide range of shopping and recreational amenities and excellent schools are located in close proximity to the village. Local and further afield travel is a doddle with great road and rail links (the train from Market Harborough will have you in London in less than an hour) – and international travel is well catered for from a variety of easily accessible airports. There is an abundance of bridleways nearby perfect for riding, golfing at Glen Gorse is delightful and water sports at Rutland Water cater for the more adventurous among us. This home is a real find, an opportunity that comes on the market rarely. Built in 2018, Hebe House sits in an exclusive development of two substantial houses, known as The Lea.

From here, the sitting room, dining room and kitchen/dining room with utility room can be found. The hallway is also home to a downstairs WC, large cupboard for all those outdoor bits and bobs and staircase to the first floor. Wooden flooring and oak doors flow throughout, giving a beautiful sense of continuity to this home. The spacious sitting room spans the whole depth of the property. With its large dual aspect windows, bifolding doors to outside and feature fireplace, it is light and incredibly roomy.

Set behind private gates on one of the largest and most private plots in the entire development, the approach alone sets the tone.

Two conservatories extend the ground floor living space further still. The larger, measuring nearly 18 by 10 feet, wraps around the rear of the home and provides a wonderful everyday space overlooking the garden.

The garage itself provides a double garage with an additional store room alongside. Outside The rear garden is a genuinely impressive outdoor space. A large entertaining patio sits immediately off the kitchen and conservatory, with a charming pergola seating area providing a shaded spot for outdoor dining.

House Leicester (United Kingdom)
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.
