Swan House, Newbold Verdon, LE9

A Landmark Home with Space, Character and Endless Possibilities

Tucked away in the heart of Newbold Verdon sits this one-of-a-kind former pub that’s been transformed into a standout six-bedroom family home. It’s got all the charm you'd hope for in a 19th-century building, but with modern upgrades where it counts—and serious space inside and out.

Step through the front door and you're welcomed into a bright and open reception hall. There’s a wood-burning stove set into a striking exposed brick chimney—perfect for cosy evenings or entertaining friends. From here, double doors lead out into the courtyard and garden, and stairs take you either up to the bedrooms or down into the original cellar. Whether you’re after a wine store, games den, or just a bit of cool storage, that space has huge potential.

The main lounge is a proper showstopper: triple-aspect windows, bags of light, and another brick fireplace as the centrepiece. Just off the hallway, you’ll find a downstairs WC, a large utility room, and a stylish dining room with warm wooden floors ready for big family dinners or weekend get-togethers.

The kitchen is built for those who love to cook—and love to host. There’s a huge island with electric hob and extractor, quartz worktops, built-in appliances including a fridge-freezer, dishwasher, three electric ovens and even a boiling water tap. Open the double doors from here and you’re straight into the courtyard—ideal for summer evenings and garden parties.

Upstairs, you’ll find six generous bedrooms and two stylish bathrooms. The principal suite features a Juliet balcony and high apex ceiling, while the main bathroom includes a walk-in shower, freestanding bath, double basin vanity and Velux window—beautifully designed from top to bottom. The second bathroom has also just been completed to an excellent standard and includes a bath, double walk-in shower, basin, and toilet.

Outside, electric double gates open into a generous courtyard leading to a huge rear garden. There’s also a former stable and storage barn that’s just waiting for its next chapter—whether that’s a home office, gym, or a self-contained annexe (subject to planning).

If you’re looking for something with heritage, personality and room to grow, this is the one.
