Mill Lane, Burton Leonard, HG3

An exceptional individually designed four-bedroom residence occupying a superb position at the edge of the highly regarded village of Burton Leonard, with breathtaking panoramic views across the surrounding countryside. Combining classical Georgian-inspired architecture with striking contemporary design, outstanding A rated energy efficiency and an exceptional level of finish throughout, Field House is a genuinely unique turn-key home set within substantial private grounds. Construction commenced in 2017, with the property completed in 2021 to Passive House standard.

Behind the traditionally styled stone façade is an interior of remarkable scale and quality. The impressive double-height entrance hall immediately sets the tone, centred around a spectacular bespoke staircase, commissioned from Europe and individually hand-built for the property. A passenger lift provides access between the ground and first floors, whilst the house also benefits from ground source heating and an Energy Performance Rating of A.

At the heart of the house is the magnificent open-plan living, dining and kitchen space, extending to approximately 32ft x 33ft. The kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of high-quality cabinetry arranged around a substantial central island, together with an Aga and generous preparation and entertaining space. Beyond, the room opens into a spectacular curved glazed elevation, flooding the accommodation with natural light and creating an uninterrupted connection with the gardens and countryside beyond. Large glazed doors open directly outside, making this an exceptional space for both everyday family living and entertaining.

There is also a separate formal sitting room, home office, utility room, boiler room and guest cloakroom. A versatile fourth bedroom, currently used as an additional gym, has its own en-suite bathroom and provides excellent ground-floor guest or dependent-relative accommodation.

The bespoke staircase rises through the double-height hall to a spacious first-floor landing. The principal bedroom suite is particularly impressive, with the sweeping curved glazed elevation providing exceptional panoramic views over the surrounding countryside. It is complemented by a substantial fitted dressing room and beautifully appointed en-suite accommodation.

There are two further generous double bedrooms on this floor, both with their own en-suite facilities, with the quality of finish continuing throughout the bathrooms, which feature extensive contemporary tiling and high-quality fittings.

Outside, Field House occupies a particularly impressive plot, approached through a private gated entrance onto a sweeping driveway providing extensive parking and access to the double garage. The gardens are predominantly laid to large expanses of lawn with established planting and mature boundaries, providing an excellent degree of privacy whilst retaining the property's remarkable open outlook.

A further major feature is the substantial detached timber-clad outbuilding with solar panels to the roof, currently arranged as a gym, work room and bathroom. Already offering highly flexible additional accommodation, it has considerable potential for alternative uses. It could lend itself particularly well to conversion into an annexe for a dependent relative, guest accommodation or a substantial leisure building. The size and position of the building may also provide scope for further extension, potentially incorporating a swimming pool or larger leisure suite, subject to the usual consents.

The overall accommodation, including the house, detached gym/work building and double garage, extends to approximately 4,607 square feet. What makes Field House particularly special is the balance it achieves. From the front it has the proportions and presence of a traditional Georgian country house, yet behind this sits a thoroughly modern home, with its dramatic curved glass elevation, lift, exceptional energy credentials and contemporary open-plan living. Combined with the scale of the grounds, its edge-of-village position and truly panoramic countryside views, it represents an extremely rare opportunity to acquire a genuinely individual home of exceptional quality.
