Hollins House is an exceptionally rare offering. Newly built in 2020, this substantial contemporary home sits in a rural setting, combining traditional materials with striking modern design. Of concrete and steel construction, the brick elevations, slate roof and extensive glazing create a timeless yet contemporary aesthetic, while the interior spaces have been thoughtfully designed to balance scale with comfort, resulting in a 9,600 sq ft home that feels both impressive and welcoming. The house also benefits from modern insulation, air source heat pumps, underfloor heating throughout and a control 4 and Lutron system.

A private road leads to the entrance to the property which is accessed via an electric sliding gate. This opens onto the drive which leads to the garage block and to a parking and turning area at the front of the house. The front door opens into a generous reception hall, from which the principal rooms and first floor are accessed via an elegant contemporary staircase.

At the heart of the home is an exceptional kitchen, where full height glazing frames beautiful southerly views over the adjoining countryside. High quality bespoke cabinetry, a central island and generous dining and seating areas create a superb everyday living space. The kitchen is flanked by a dining room and a drawing room and the ground floor rooms link seamlessly with the gardens through series of French doors.

The ground floor connects seamlessly to the leisure suite, which includes a gym, changing facilities, sauna and a stunning indoor swimming pool. On the first floor, the impressive principal suite enjoys panoramic views and features a substantial bathroom accessed via a private staircase. There are four further bedroom suites on this level. The second floor offers a media room/bedroom with an en suite bathroom. Above the swimming pool is a first floor space ideal for conversion into a spacious home office.

Off the hall is a games/play room and opposite a study.

Hollins House is set within beautifully landscaped
gardens and grounds, designed to complement the
contemporary architecture and maximise enjoyment
of the setting. Extensive terracing provides superb
areas for outdoor dining and entertaining, while a
picturesque pond with exposed sandstone features
form a striking focal point. The overall environment
is tranquil, private and perfectly suited to a modern
country lifestyle.
