The Stables, The Burley Estate, LE15

This exceptional home is a fusion of sleek, contemporary design and historic grandeur. It offers all the sophistication of a modern London home but is set within the countryside elegance of the prestigious Burley on the Hill Estate. Occupying part of the Grade I listed stable block of this 17th-century Palladian mansion, the property's striking period features and high-end modern finishes deliver a distinctive and luxurious living experience.

Upon arrival, residents are welcomed through a stunning communal entrance on the ground floor, featuring a beautiful stone-flagged foyer and a grand cantilevered staircase. From here, the home's private entrance on the first floor opens into accommodation that spans two levels, thoughtfully designed with no expense spared during its modernisation.

The standout feature of the home is the spectacular double-height living room. Exposed beams, original stone walls, and a tall sash window are all complemented by sleek, contemporary décor and a stylish gas fireplace, creating a bright and airy space. Adjacent to the living area is the bespoke kitchen, designed by Nathaniel Oliver. Its central quartz island offers a functional and beautiful focal point, while high-end integrated appliances, including a built-in pressure cooker, induction hob, steam ovens, and coffee machine, make this kitchen a chef's dream. A bespoke dining table designed to blend into the quartz island provides a casual dining space, whilst the adjacent dining room offers an elegant, formal space with whitewashed floors and views over the mansion's Cour d'Honneur.

The principal bedroom suite is an indulgent retreat with fitted wardrobes, a large sash window framing the beautiful view outside, and a luxurious en suite bathroom featuring a floating bathtub, walk-in shower, and fully tiled finishes. Upstairs, the galleried landing overlooks the living space below, adding architectural drama and further enhancing the home's sense of light and space. This level also features two additional double bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room, while the other benefits from access to a Jack-and-Jill bathroom with his-and-hers sinks, a floating-effect bathtub, and a walk-in shower. A large dressing room, utility cupboard, and discreet eaves storage ensure practicality is well catered for.

The views from the private roof terrace are breathtaking. To the east, you have sweeping vistas of parkland and farmland; to the south, the tranquil woodland stretching towards Rutland Water; and to the west, the mansion's impressive Cour d'Honneur. This secluded space is perfect for relaxing on a warm summer day.

The home forms part of the award-winning conversion of Burley on the Hill Mansion House, a Grade I listed Palladian building completed in 1700 for the Earl of Nottingham. Described by Pevsner as a "palace," the mansion was later modernised by renowned landscape architect Humphry Repton, whose influence is still visible in the estate's beautifully landscaped grounds. Converted into six grand residences in the 1990s by Kit Martin, the mansion is now surrounded by 22 further properties, all within the estate's 60 acres of parkland, woodland, and communal gardens. Residents enjoy exclusive access to these grounds, including the deer park and ancient woodland, and use of the mansion's opulent reception rooms for private events.

Practical features of the home include a double garage and two additional parking spaces. There is also the option for future owners to install an EV charger subject to revelant permissions. The estate is managed by two companies: Burley Management Ltd, which oversees the building's insurance and communal parts at an annual cost of £3,780, and Burley Gardens Ltd, which manages the wider grounds for £4,830 per year. These companies are made up of residents of the Burley estate, and together, they ensure the estate's exceptional condition and upkeep. The fees also include building insurance and water charges.

Burley on the Hill is ideally located just two miles from the wonderful market town of Oakham, the county town of Rutland, which caters for most day-to-day needs and features hourly rail services to Peterborough, Cambridge, Birmingham, and Stansted Airport. Stamford and Uppingham, each with renowned schools and excellent amenities, are also within a 10-mile radius. Rutland Water is just two miles away and offers sailing, fishing, cycling, and picturesque walking routes.

This is more than a home; it's an opportunity to live a lifestyle that brings together the grandeur of a historic estate with the sleek design and flow of a contemporary home. Rarely does such a distinctive property, with no expense spared in its design, come to market. Don't miss the chance to make this stunning home your own; book a viewing today!
