THE PRINCIPAL RESIDENCE

Approached via one of three separate double-gated entrances, the principal residence occupies a central position within the estate. A sweeping driveway leads to the house, complemented by generous parking, a turning circle and a detached triple garage.

On the first floor, four generously proportioned bedrooms are complemented by two en-suite bathrooms and a family bathroom.

INDEPENDENT ACCOMMODATION FOR EXTENDED FAMILY & GUESTS

The estate further benefits from two independent accommodation options. A completely detached second residence provides two to three bedrooms, a kitchen, living accommodation and utility facilities, offering excellent flexibility for extended family or guests.

A further self-contained annexe offers additional possibilities, whether for guests, family members, live-in assistance or other lifestyle requirements.

Together, these additional spaces make the estate particularly well suited to multi-generational living, offering the rare advantage of bringing family together without compromising individual independence.

The established gardens provide an attractive setting for the residences, with outdoor entertaining areas and an outdoor swimming pool. Further leisure facilities include a private gym and sauna, while the wider grounds extend into established woodland, fenced paddocks and open pasture, collectively providing considerable space for outdoor pursuits and potential equestrian use, subject to any necessary consents.

A substantial collection of additional buildings forms another significant element of the estate. Barns, workshops, storage facilities and tool stores provide extensive practical space, with a kitchenette adding further versatility. These facilities offer scope for a variety of business, hobby, storage and lifestyle requirements, allowing activities to be accommodated independently of the principal residence.

Among the estate’s particularly distinctive features is a private helipad and substantial hangar, positioned within a separate area of the grounds and accessed via its own gated entrance. These facilities offer an unusual level of flexibility and convenience, with any proposed aviation use remaining subject to the relevant permissions and operational requirements.

The arrangement of the grounds is further enhanced by three separate double-gated entrances, allowing different areas of the estate to be accessed independently. The principal entrance serves the residences and triple garage, while the additional entrances provide access to the leisure facilities, annexe, hangar and associated outbuildings.

GARDENS, SWIMMING POOL AND OUTDOOR LIVING

Extending across approximately 28 acres, the estate encompasses established gardens, woodland, paddocks and open pasture, providing an extensive and varied outdoor setting.

The formal gardens create an attractive setting for the principal residence, with established outdoor entertaining areas providing a natural extension of the living accommodation during the warmer months.

Beyond the formal gardens, the landscape opens into established woodland and expanses of open land. Fenced paddocks offer further versatility, with potential for equestrian use, subject to individual requirements and any necessary consents.

The combination of landscaped gardens, woodland and open countryside provides considerable scope for outdoor pursuits, leisure and enjoyment of the surrounding grounds.

An outdoor swimming pool, with the benefit of a separate boiler for heating, provides a further leisure facility, complemented by a private gym and sauna.

Further enhancing the lifestyle appeal is an exciting range of outdoor leisure and recreational possibilities. A substantial existing concrete hardstanding provides an ideal opportunity for conversion into a private padel court, offering the potential to create a superb sporting and leisure facility within the grounds.

In addition, a substantial steel-framed structure is already in place within the garden, presenting an exciting opportunity for a purchaser to complete and personalise the space to create an impressive private entertaining venue, games room, gymnasium, or bespoke ’man cave’.

With scope for additional leisure facilities and bespoke finishing, these features offer an exciting opportunity to further enhance the property’s already impressive lifestyle offering.

AN EXTRAORDINARY COLLECTION OF OUTBUILDINGS

The estate benefits from an extensive collection of additional buildings, offering considerable flexibility for a variety of practical and lifestyle requirements.

Comprising barns, workshops, storage facilities and tool stores, the range of outbuildings, all benefiting from newly installed roofs, provides a wealth of versatile space for business interests, specialist hobbies, vehicle collections, equipment and general storage.

An L-shaped stable block, incorporating a kitchenette and WC, offers excellent versatility, with the option to reinstate its use as working stables or adapt the space to provide additional living accommodation.

The provision of dedicated working and storage areas allows these activities to be accommodated independently of the principal residence and its entertaining spaces, while also supporting the practical management of an estate of this scale.

Together, the buildings provide an extensive range of ancillary facilities, complementing the residential accommodation and adding another dimension to the property’s versatility.

A PRIVATE HELIPAD AND SUBSTANTIAL HANGAR

Among the estate’s most distinctive features is a private helipad, accompanied by a substantial hangar.

Positioned within a separate area of the grounds, the hangar and associated facilities benefit from their own gated approach, providing independent access from the principal residential areas.

These facilities offer a particularly unusual addition to the estate, providing further flexibility for those whose professional or personal requirements may benefit from private aviation facilities.

PRIVACY, SPACE AND INDEPENDENCE

Three separate double-gated entrances serve different areas of the estate, providing flexibility in how the grounds and associated facilities are accessed.

The principal entrance leads towards the residences, turning circle and triple garage. A second entrance provides independent access to the helipad, hangar, annexe, studio and associated outbuildings, while a third serves further buildings and storage areas.

This arrangement allows distinct areas of the estate to operate independently, accommodating residential, leisure and practical requirements without compromising the privacy of the principal residence.

Combined with approximately 28 acres of grounds, established woodland and surrounding countryside, the layout provides a notable degree of privacy and separation.

A RURAL RETREAT WITH EXCELLENT CONNECTIVITY

Despite its private countryside setting, the estate is conveniently positioned for access to the wider Midlands and national transport networks.

Birmingham, Coventry, Solihull and Leicester are all readily accessible, offering an extensive range of business, shopping, educational, dining and cultural amenities. The motorway network and mainline railway services provide excellent onward connections, with Birmingham International Station approximately 10 minutes away. Birmingham Airport is within a 25-minute drive, while East Midlands Airport can be reached in approximately 45 minutes.

The location therefore combines a private rural setting with access to a range of established commercial centres, transport links and regional amenities.

A LIFESTYLE WITHOUT COMPROMISE

Approximately 28 acres of private grounds incorporate the principal residence, a detached second home and self-contained annexe, established gardens, woodland and paddocks.

An outdoor swimming pool, private gym and sauna provide additional leisure facilities, while the extensive outbuildings, workshops and storage areas offer further practical versatility.
