Second home - United Kingdom

Hook Park is a very prestigious location close to Warsash with access to the Hook with Warsash Nature Reserve which combines, woodland, pasture and wetlands to provide a habitat for a diverse range of wildlife and includes the shoreline of Southampton Water up to the mouth of the River Hamble well known as a yachting Mecca for yachtsmen with several marinas within a few minutes drive. Warsash has a wide range of local amenities including several pubs, shops, a cafe, an active Tennis Club within walking distance and several golf clubs a short drive away. There are numerous footpaths and one that leads to the village of Warsash along the foreshore where the iconic "Pink Ferry" will take you across the river to Hamble village. Solent Way, a well known walking route, is within a few minutes walk and is very popular for dog walking. Access to the M27 at J9, airports in Southampton and Bournemouth and mainline trains from Fareham and Southampton Airport Parkway give easy access to all parts of the UK and areas of Europe. On leaving Newtown Road in Warsash you will drive over a bridge into Hook Park which is worlds away from the mainstream and an oasis of calm. 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 so the land was sold for development. Located on a large plot of 1.3 acres Cotswold House is a substantial family home with an attractive facade to the front that is approached over a sweeping gravel driveway which leads to the front entrance, two double length garages with space for 8 cars, a single garage attached to the Pool House and ample parking for several cars. There are steps up to an imposing front door which leads into a large reception hall. The accommodation in the house extends to 4200 sq ft and is spread over 2 floors which includes on the ground floor a drawing room with substantial stone open fireplace and oak beams, original polished wood flooring, double aspect dining room, family room and a kitchen with separate breakfast/casual dining area. On this floor there is also a guest bedroom with ensuite bathroom and separate rain shower. There is also a cloakroom and utility room.. Stairs lead to the first floor landing with access to a large balcony overlooking the nature reserve and Southampton Water. A principal bedroom with ensuite bathroom and 3 further bedrooms, a family bathroom and a small nursery are all on this floor. Outside there is a single story building of 543 sq ft currently used as a one bedroom home called The Pool House which could easily be converted ( subject to planning regulations) to create a gym, sauna, spa, showers and changing rooms for the pool(currently unused) that is located to the front of this building. Adjoining the main house there is a double length garage with a 2 bedroom flat that has a kitchen/living area above and a separate entrance to the rear. Between the house and garage is an internal yard currently used as a dog run and kennel. There is a gardener's WC there too. The second double length garage is detached with a one bedroom Garden Flat above. Both these buildings lend themselves to re-development as a home office or incorporation into the main house to create more space. Currently, each unit is let under the terms of the Renters Rights Act which became law on May 1st 2026 and are generating approximately £1000.00 per month each, inclusive of heat, light and Council Tax. The Pool House is separately rated at Band C. The two flats are included in the main house for Council Tax purposes. Agent's Note: The Pool House and one of the flats has been separately assessed for energy efficiency, the other flat is included in the assessment of the main house. AI has been used to demonstrate what the pool could look like when filled with water.

The Hawthorns is a masterpiece of Edwardian architecture, built in 1906 and standing as one of the finest and most characterful residences in one of Oadby's most coveted addresses. Set behind a long, sweeping driveway on a plot of approximately 0.56 of an acre, the moment you arrive you understand that this is something entirely different. This remarkable property extends to an impressive 5,455 square feet in total, encompassing the principal house, annexe, garage and outbuildings, offering a scale and versatility that is exceptionally rare in this area. From the moment you step into the entrance hall, the story of this house begins to unfold. Double height, grand in proportion and flooded with light, the original wooden flooring underfoot and the staircase that rises above are genuinely among the finest you will find in a private home. The detail along the banisters, the sweep of the landing above, the chandelier overhead. It stops you in your tracks, as it should. That same original wooden flooring continues through the first floor hallway, a thread of authenticity that runs through the very heart of the home. The reception rooms are in a league of their own. Original fireplaces, intricate cornicing and coving, soaring ceilings, rich wall panelling and original bay windows combine to create spaces that feel both historic and utterly alive. Whether you are entertaining on a grand scale or simply living well, these rooms deliver something that no new build can replicate and no amount of money can manufacture. This home drips in character. And thanks to the modern heating system installed throughout, it is a home that keeps you wonderfully cool through the summer months and beautifully warm and cosy as the seasons turn, without ever losing a single note of its period charm. The kitchen and dining space is a genuine heart-of-the-home room and one that surprises at every turn. Exceptionally generous in proportion, it features a superb range of solid timber cabinetry with rich warm tones, dark granite worktops and a range cooker with extractor above. The original terrazzo flooring runs throughout and adds enormous character underfoot. Original leaded and stained glass windows bathe the room in coloured light, while French doors open directly out to the garden, making this a space that flows beautifully between inside and out. There is ample room for a large dining table and informal seating, making this as much a family room as it is a kitchen. A substantial utility room leads directly off, originally the servant quarters, complete with its own secondary staircase still intact, offering genuine flexibility for multi-generational living or simply a nod to the history beneath your feet. The first floor houses five bedrooms, all of generous proportion. Two benefit from their own en suite bathrooms, both fitted with underfloor heating, one featuring a sleek walk-in shower enclosure. The family bathroom perfectly complements the period character of the home. The principal bedroom enjoys its own bay window above the reception room below, flooding the space with light, and is served by a very large en suite. On the second floor, the possibilities open up further. A versatile room currently suited to use as a study or additional bedroom leads through to an extensive loft space that is ready and waiting to be converted. In the hands of a buyer with vision, the entire upper floor could become a private principal suite of genuine hotel quality, a games room or a creative studio. The ceiling height, the bones of the space and the existing access make this one of the most exciting opportunities the house presents. Outside, the plot is extraordinary for this location. Mature trees, established planting and lawned gardens wrap around the property, offering complete privacy and a sense of seclusion that belies the fact you are moments from everything this exceptional address has to offer. A dedicated garden outbuilding currently serves as a private gym. The gardens also benefit from an external WC and a separate outdoor utility room used for garden maintenance and storage. The annexe above the garage is a genuinely independent living space with its own gas meter, electricity meter and boiler system. Comprising a bedroom area, lounge, kitchen and bathroom, it is ideal for extended family, a live-in carer, visiting guests or as an income-generating opportunity. A garage with remote controlled electric doors and an adjacent carport complete the outstanding provision of outbuildings. The home is further protected by a silent panic alarm connected directly to the Police, providing an exceptional level of security and peace of mind for the whole household. Directly opposite the property sits one of the area's most treasured assets. The University of Leicester Botanic Garden is a destination in its own right, drawing visitors from across the county and beyond to experience 16 acres of breathtaking grounds that change with every season. To have this on your doorstep, to watch it bloom and transform through spring, summer, autumn and winter, is one of those quiet privileges that only the fortunate few who live here truly understand. Victoria Park is equally close, offering open green space, weekend recreation and a wonderful sense of room to breathe. Glebe Road sits at the heart of Oadby, one of the most distinguished residential addresses in the East Midlands. This is a neighbourhood defined by sweeping tree-lined avenues, handsome period architecture and a strong, established community that has long attracted professionals, academics and families who value both quality of life and convenience. For families with children, the educational offering in this area is outstanding. Leicester High School for Girls, Leicester Grammar School and Stoneygate School are all within easy reach, alongside a number of excellent state schools, making this one of the most sought-after catchments in the region. The independent shops, restaurants and cafes of Stoneygate and Allandale Road offer refined everyday living, while the city centre, including the Curve Theatre, the Golden Mile and Leicester Market, is only minutes away by car. The Oadby Parade is just a short drive, offering the M&S Food Hall, independent boutiques and a wonderful selection of cafes and restaurants. The villages of Great Glen, Kibworth and the wider Harborough district are all within easy reach for those who enjoy the Leicestershire countryside on their doorstep. For commuters and those who travel frequently, the location is exceptionally well connected. Leicester railway station is just a short drive away and offers direct services to London St Pancras in approximately one hour. The M1 and M69 motorways are both easily accessible, providing fast and straightforward connections across the region, and East Midlands Airport is approximately 20 miles away. Properties like The Hawthorns do not come to the market often. When they do, the right buyer recognises immediately that what they are looking at cannot be replicated, rebuilt or replaced.

Presented by James Cooper - Part of By Design’s network, with more than 25 years’ experience in the South Devon premium property market. Introduction Wolverwood is a bold and highly individual home, tucked away in a private hillside setting on the edge of historic Plympton St Maurice. Set within around 3.5 acres of gardens, terraces and paddocks, it offers privacy, versatility and a lifestyle that is increasingly hard to find so close to Plymouth, the A38 and wider routes into Cornwall and towards Exeter. What makes Wolverwood especially compelling is the way it combines two distinct parts into one highly adaptable whole. The contemporary section of the house provides striking modern living space together with three beautifully appointed bedrooms, while the original cottage offers three further bedrooms and its own characterful accommodation. This arrangement makes the property particularly well suited to multigenerational living, buyers wanting a home with lettable income potential, or those who run a business from home and need genuine separation between different parts of daily life. Alongside the house is a substantial detached commercial building with B1 category use, adding another valuable dimension for anyone seeking workspace, storage, studio, gym or business premises from home. The Inside At the heart of Wolverwood is a remarkable open plan kitchen, dining and living space extending to over 14 metres in length. It is a room designed for modern living on an impressive scale, bringing together strong contemporary styling with warmth, comfort and practicality. The bespoke kitchen is centred around a large island with breakfast bar seating and features an Everhot electric range, induction hob, built-in appliances, larder and utility. Copper toned details, Microcement finishes, feature lighting and exposed steelwork all give the space a polished interior designed feel, while the layout allows room for relaxed seating, dining and entertaining. A contemporary wood burner adds warmth and focus, making this a space that works just as well for everyday family life as it does for hosting friends. The modern side of the house also includes three luxury bedrooms, creating a superb main home environment that feels stylish, spacious and private. The principal suite is especially impressive, with triple aspect windows, a walk-in wardrobe, wet room ensuite, freestanding bath and access to a wraparound balcony. It has the feel of a boutique hotel suite, calm, beautifully finished and generous in scale. Two further bedrooms in this part of the house are equally well presented, each with their own strong sense of design and comfort. The original cottage provides a lovely contrast, bringing texture, warmth and a more traditional feel to the overall arrangement. Here, there is a formal dining room with a wood burner and garden outlook, a comfortable family room with slate flooring and French doors opening outside, and a characterful kitchen with oak worktops, fitted cabinetry and a glazed roof section drawing in natural light. This side of the house also provides three further bedrooms, giving real flexibility for dependent relatives, older children, guests or those looking to create income from part of the accommodation, subject to any permissions or requirements a buyer may wish to satisfy. Taken as a whole, Wolverwood is far more than a six bedroom house. It is a home that can evolve around different needs and stages of life, whether that means living across generations, balancing home life with supplementary income, or simply having the space to work, host and live in a more flexible way. The Outside Outside, Wolverwood is just as impressive. The grounds extend to around 3.5 acres and include gardens, terraces, areas of natural planting and small paddocks, all contributing to the sense of privacy and space. The property is fully fenced and entered via electric gates, giving it a secure and tucked away feel from the moment you arrive. Around the house are several places to sit, relax and enjoy the outlook. The cottage side has a more intimate garden feel, while the modern extension opens onto broad terrace and balcony areas that create a strong indoor and outdoor flow. There is ample parking for cars and vans, making the property highly practical for larger households, visiting guests or business use. A major asset here is the detached commercial building, which greatly broadens the appeal of the property. With B1 category use, it offers valuable flexibility for offices, storage, workshop use, fitness space or an established home run business, all clearly separate from the main house itself. For buyers wanting to combine lifestyle and work in one setting, this is a significant advantage. Wolverwood also remains registered as a smallholding, giving the next owner the option to keep livestock or make broader use of the land if desired. Location Wolverwood is positioned on the outskirts of historic Plympton St Maurice, with the town centre around 1.5 miles away for everyday amenities including supermarkets, schools, post office, banks and bakeries. Plymouth city centre is approximately 5 miles away and offers a much wider range of facilities, including grammar and private schools, Plymouth University, Derriford Hospital, theatres, cinemas, shopping, Royal William Yard and an excellent choice of restaurants. The ferry port also provides crossings to Spain and France. For buyers who value accessibility, the location works especially well. The A38 is easily reached, opening convenient routes towards Cornwall, Exeter and the M5, with Exeter approximately 40 miles away. It is a setting that gives you privacy and breathing space without losing touch with day to day convenience or wider transport links.
