Ground floor
Luxborough House makes an immediate impression, approached through remote-controlled hardwood gates and a gravelled driveway framed by mature hornbeam, beech and holly hedging, creating a wonderful sense of privacy. The impressive arched entrance, framed beneath a bespoke brick and tiled storm porch, opens into a magnificent reception hall where polished limestone flooring, a soaring vaulted ceiling and full-height atrium glazing combine to create an extraordinary sense of light and volume. A striking open staircase by German manufacturer Kenngott, with oak treads and steel detailing, rises elegantly through the centre of the house.
The ground floor has been extensively remodelled to create a sophisticated yet highly practical family environment. Double doors open into a beautifully appointed dual-aspect drawing room, where engineered oak flooring, bespoke wooden plantation shutters, a stone-surround fireplace with log burner and French doors opening onto the gardens create an elegant and welcoming space for entertaining.
The true heart of the home is the impressive extended Tom Howley kitchen and family room. Beautifully designed with bespoke cabinetry, quartz worktops and an expansive central island, it incorporates premium Miele appliances including a steam microwave, warming drawer and dishwasher, together with an induction hob, integrated refrigeration, drinks fridge and filtered boiling water tap. Limestone flooring, underfloor heating and air conditioning complete this exceptional contemporary family space.
The ground floor has also been intelligently reconfigured to provide a beautifully fitted Tom Howley boot room with extensive cabinetry and built-in seating, a dedicated laundry room with integrated Miele washer and dryer, an automatic modern pulley maid drying system, the high-pressure water system and again all set within beautiful Tom Howley cabinetry. A sophisticated home office has also been created with excellent shelving and storage, and a generous walk-in pantry to complete the reconfiguration of this space. The accommodation is further enhanced by a refitted guest cloakroom, oak internal doors, integrated speaker system and a carefully considered palette of contemporary finishes.
First floor
The first floor is approached via the impressive sweeping gallery landing, which enjoys spectacular views through the full-height atrium glazing and across the reception hall below. The principal bedroom is a particularly impressive retreat, with two large picture windows overlooking the beautifully landscaped rear gardens, extensive luxury fitted wardrobes and a spacious dressing room with bespoke mirrored cabinetry, vanity storage and dedicated shoe storage.
The principal en suite is finished to an exacting standard, featuring Porcelanosa fittings and tiling, twin vanity basins, a large walk-in double shower with rain and handheld fittings, fitted storage and contemporary sanitaryware. Air conditioning and plantation shutters add to the comfort of this luxurious private suite.
Three further generous double bedrooms occupy the first floor, including a beautifully proportioned bedroom featuring a dramatic full-height atrium window overlooking the gardens and a luxury ensuite, an impressive guest bedroom with fully fitted cabinetry and wardrobes and a further en suite bathroom, and a third well-proportioned and beautifully presented double bedroom. The luxurious family bathroom is fully tiled with high gloss porcelain and beautifully appointed with a freestanding bath, bidet, contemporary sanitaryware, vanity storage and refined modern finishes.
The second floor continues the remarkable flexibility, providing a further three versatile rooms, a family bathroom and extensive fitted storage. Two of the bedrooms feature newly installed Velux windows with remote-controlled blinds, while a further substantial vaulted room could readily serve as a home cinema, gym, games room or additional bedroom. With its generous proportions and an abundance of built in storage, this level offers exceptional scope for changing family requirements.
Gardens & Grounds
The grounds are an integral part of the appeal of Luxborough House, extending to approximately 1.4 acres of beautifully landscaped south-facing gardens, thoughtfully designed by a Chelsea Gold Medal-winning garden designer. The setting is wonderfully private, enclosed by established hedging and mature trees, while open countryside beyond provides an idyllic rural outlook.
A deep Indian sandstone terrace creates an elegant area for outdoor entertaining, bordered by raised brick beds and deep sleeper borders filled with roses, ceanothus, euphorbia, lavender and an abundance of ornamental planting. A beautiful rill water feature framed by a mature lavender hedging extends from the central axis of the house, creating a stunning architectural feature with stone steps leading down towards the mature rear gardens and the enchanting lily pond, where a raised deck and charming gazebo provide a delightful place to relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.
Beyond the formal gardens lies an extensive productive garden with raised beds and fruit cages, producing asparagus, rhubarb, raspberries, redcurrants, strawberries and other seasonal produce. The adjoining meadow and orchard provide a haven for wildlife, together with an abundance of apples, pears and plums, while five magnificent ornamental cherry trees create a spectacular display of blossom each spring. Mature redwoods, Scots pine, oak, liquidambar, amelanchier, mountain ash and willow add structure and maturity, with areas of natural woodland renowned for their spring bluebells and abundant wildlife.
The grounds also provide an impressive range of practical facilities. A substantial timber-framed stable block sits on a concrete hardstanding and benefits from pedestrian access to the road, water, electricity and individual alarms, with accommodation currently arranged as a workshop, garden store and additional storage.
A potting greenhouse and generous log stores further enhance the horticultural facilities, while the detached double garage has been remodelled with widened electric roller doors and provides ample space for large vehicles. Above, the superb gym enjoys excellent natural light through four Velux windows and a porthole window, together with gym flooring, mirrored wall and wall-mounted television. Additional parking beside the garage provides space for a camper van or multiple vehicles.
Lodge Annexe
A particularly appealing feature of Luxborough House is the detached lodge, affectionately known as Little Lodge, positioned discreetly within the grounds and naturally clad in redwood to complement its surroundings. This charming independent property provides an exceptional additional space for guests, extended family, an au pair or those seeking a separate home-working environment, with potential for use as an income-generating annexe, subject to any necessary consents.
The lodge comprises a welcoming open-plan living space with a vaulted ceiling and log-burning stove, a fitted kitchenette, dedicated sleeping area and smart shower room. Recent improvements include a new under-counter fridge, microwave oven and upgraded heating, while independent electrical infrastructure ensures the accommodation is practical and comfortable throughout the year.
With its own private setting within the gardens and immediate access to the surrounding grounds, Little Lodge is a highly versatile addition that significantly enhances the overall appeal of this exceptional country residence.
