Holmleigh Farmhouse

The ultimate country homes in the ultimate location is the best way to describe the Holmleigh development at Hose in the Vale of Belvoir, Leicestershire.

Following purchase of this five acre site in the summer of 2007, we forwarded to the local planning authority a scheme which would both enhance and be sympathetic to the village within the setting of the conservation area. We proposed to create a large gated courtyard which would be centred to the construction of four new substantial homes based upon barn architecture. All of these properties are designed around a two storey gallery reception hall with polished oak staircases and open glazed areas with views over the large formal gardens and paddocks.

Typical of our construction techniques we have used English oak, Travertine marble, natural slate and Yorkstone which has resulted in that warm traditional but still contemporary feel to these homes.

The first release during October 2008, will be the original Holmleigh Farmhouse dated 1841 which is a substantial dwelling having been fully renovated over a ten month build programme. This property now consists of five double bedrooms, three bathrooms, four reception rooms and an impressive farmhouse dining kitchen which enjoys south views over the large lawn gardens. It has a private gated courtyard with a range of outbuildings that have been renovated for various uses from garaging to storage or stabling. Viewing is essential to appreciate the size and finish of this stunning home.

                     Oak House under construction

Oak house is also to be released during October when this property will be at shell completion stage prior to the internal works commencing. A prospective buyer could then get involved with selecting the finishings and therefore secure there own bespoke home. This magnificent property will have six double bedrooms, four bathrooms, three reception areas and a substantial farmhouse kitchen with south and west views over the ½ acre of formal gardens in addition to an acre paddock.

The last release of this first phase is Huckerby Barn which is based upon an oak framed cruick barn with west views over the meadow. This property has been sold prior to formal release.

The second phase of a further two four bedroom homes will be released during the spring of 2009 with an update to this when details are available.
