Country houses for sale

An absolutely idyllic 400-year old home with enchanting interiors and picturesque gardens

Framed by pretty gardens and set within six acres of land, Hogbrook Farm is a real hidden gem with plenty of character in the Warwickshire countryside.

Hogbrook Farm has the kind of garden you want to spend time in: neither daunting nor overly designed, it’s simply a beautiful place full of climbing roses, mature trees and tranquil areas, where you can sit with a book in hand and soak up the scents and the atmosphere.

The house — currently on the market via Mr & Mrs Clarke for offers over £1.1 million — has much the same feel, with a profusion of details whose only purpose seems to delight.

The kitchen has a vaulted ceiling and an Aga, the snug has a woodburning stove under a massive beam and some of the six bedrooms have fireplaces or exposed timbers.

An orchard and romantic pond can be found outside; whilst the summer house — which could also be used as a home studio, office space or yoga room — with a hot tub is the final touch.

Hogbrook Farm is currently on the market via Mr and Mrs Clarke for offers over £1.1 million — see more pictures or enquire with the agent for further details.
