Second home - United Kingdom

Welcome to Bosworth House, a residence of uncommon presence and scale, set discreetly behind brick walls along one of Husbands Bosworth’s most established lanes. A sweeping driveway announces arrival, drawing the eye towards this imposing country residence whose architecture speaks quietly of confidence rather than display. This is a home that has evolved with care, balancing historic grandeur with the expectations of contemporary living. Extending to over 11,000 square feet, the house unfolds with a sense of generosity and rhythm. Ceiling heights, proportions and light have been carefully preserved, allowing each principal room to feel both expansive and composed. Reception spaces flow with ease, offering the flexibility required for both formal entertaining and relaxed family life. Entrances rarely come as a grand as this flag stone hall, which invites you in to this home that is steeped in history and architectural features. Round the corner, a bespoke staircase is bathed in light which spills through an impression gothic-arched, chapel window. At the heart of the home, you will find, not one, but two kitchens. The formal kitchen, perfect for entertaining and gatherings, has been re-fitted with an extensive range of fitted units and central island with granite work surfaces, with a five oven Aga range, nestled within the original fireplace. The secondary, (spice), kitchen, is equipped with an equally extensive range of fitted units, complemented with high-spec appliances including a Samsung oven, Zanussi microwave and Neff dishwasher, making it an ideal, functional spice kitchen. Beyond here, is the laundry room, with plumbing for appliances. The cellar, which is accessed from the main kitchen, features four separate, barrel ceiling chambers. The principal living areas are anchored by craftsmanship and quiet detail rather than ostentation. South facing and with views extending into the secluded garden that soften the interior and reinforce the sense of privacy throughout. A dedicated study, games room and cinema room allow the house to adapt seamlessly to different rhythms of life, while the inclusion of an indoor swimming pool elevates everyday living into something more restorative. Bathed in natural light, this space offers year-round enjoyment and opens out to the landscaped garden beyond. Bosworth House’s accommodation is exceptional in both scale and execution. Seven beautifully appointed suites, each comprising a bedroom, dressing room and en suite bathroom, provide a level of comfort more often associated with the finest boutique hotels. Every suite has been designed to offer independence and retreat, making the house equally suited to multi-generational living, hosting guests, or simply enjoying space without compromise. The grounds, extending to approximately one acre, have been thoughtfully landscaped to create structure without formality. Mature planting frames open lawns, terraces and quieter corners, offering privacy and changing outlooks throughout the seasons. It is a setting that feels established and calm, yet entirely manageable. Completing the estate is a substantial triple garage, discreetly positioned and accessed via separate, secure gates, features an external staircase leading to a studio above that lends itself to a range of uses, from a home office to creative space, or ancillary accommodation. Practical considerations have been handled with the same attention as the main house, ensuring functionality never intrudes upon the overall elegance. Please note: Planning permission, (17/01457/FUL), which has since lapsed, has previously been granted for the demolition of the triple garage and erection of a pair of semi-detached dwellings (re-submission of 14/01138/FUL). The historic village of Husbands Bosworth, is a thriving village, lying at crossroads, roughly equidistant from Leicester and Northampton and also from the towns of Market Harborough and Lutterworth.

The village itself features a well-regarded primary school, mini-supermarket/post-office, doctors surgery, dental practice, public house and recreational facilities. Bosworth House is not simply large; it is considered. It offers the rare combination of architectural presence, modern comfort and a sense of permanence that cannot be replicated. Represented by Charlie Sylvanus-Jones By Design Homes Market Harborough, this is a property for those who recognise quality and true luxury, instinctively. Want to know more?

Introduction Huxbear House is a magnificent example of a Grade II listed 17th-century farmhouse, offering spacious and versatile accommodation. The property retains many original features and has undergone a comprehensive restoration over the past six years. With up to six bedrooms, a large kitchen breakfast room, and two expansive reception rooms. The house sits in a prominent position in the Teign Valley, set within approximately three acres of private grounds. Huxbear House has formerly been known as Huber Barton and before that Hokesbear. The name Hokesbear may originate from Hokes - there is a family named Hoke who are found in Devon and Bear - meaning a grove (a common Devonian place name purportedly from the Saxon beer). The description of the current property describes it as a farmhouse that is seventeenth century in origin but having been extensively remodelled in the nineteenth century. The house is situated in the parish of Hennock. In the neighbourhood of the house is Huxbear Farm, Huxbear Court, The Byre and just to the south The Old Kiln. Further to the south of the property is an earthwork of uncertain origin but the current interpretation is that it is prehistoric. History Huxbear House boasts a fascinating history with records dating back to the 12th century. Listed in 1977, the description includes: Structure: Solid, rendered walls with slated roofs and 19th-century ridge tiles. Chimneys: Three rendered stacks, including a projecting stack in the right-hand gable and an early stack likely heating the original hall. Windows: A five-window front with a two-storey gabled entrance porch and a mix of sash and casement windows. Interior Features: Remnants of a stud and panel screen, ovolo-moulded chamfers, scroll stops, and a chamfered wooden lintel on an old fireplace. When the current owners purchased the property, they commissioned the local history group to compile detailed information about the house, it is available to read in full, just ask for an email copy. Step Inside To the front of the property, steps and a path lead to the imposing original entrance porch with a flagstone floor, stone side benches, and a solid wood door opening into the entrance hall. The ground floor offers extremely spacious accommodation, including: Sitting Room: Featuring beautiful oak flooring, a stone fireplace with a wood burner, a large window to the front, and a generous walk-in storage cupboard. Living Room: Highlighted by an original granite inglenook fireplace with a wood burner and bread oven, filled with character and light from the large front window. Kitchen Breakfast Room: A large, L-shaped space with an oil-fired Rayburn, and whilst the current owners have not put a new kitchen in, they have updated the electrics, so it is ready for the new owner to pick their own style and layout. The kitchen leads to a utility room, a door to the outside, a rear hallway/boot room, and a downstairs cloakroom. Stairs from the front hall lead to a spacious landing, providing access to all bedrooms. Immediately off the landing are steps up to an occasional room, ideal as a children’s playroom or occasional bedroom (bedroom six), with an external door and staircase to the rear courtyard below. The other five bedrooms are all good-sized doubles, with two featuring en-suite facilities. The remaining bedrooms benefit from a luxury bathroom with a freestanding bath, a walk-through shower, and elegant fittings. From the landing, there is also a walk-in airing cupboard with built-in storage shelves. Step Outside The property is accessed via a private entrance leading up to the driveway with ample parking. There is a detached garage with space for four vehicles and additional open parking. The property sits on approximately three acres, with a wide border at the front featuring a young beech hedge, roses, and shrubs.
