Tanners Lane, Corby Glen, NG33

High on its vantage point, Hill House stands proudly beyond a sweep of lush front lawn in the tranquil village of Corby Glen; a home reimagined, extended and finished with a private pool perfect for hazy summer days. Set against this bucolic backdrop, tucked behind electric gates and lush green lawn, Hill House looks out through striking doubleheight glazing and a Juliet balcony that showcase the modern reinvention of its 1960s origins. Plenty of parking can be found on the broad driveway and within the double garage.

Contemporary Comfort

Natural daylight from a double height window to the front fills the bright and welcoming hallway, creating a warm welcome. Families can gather in the spacious, contemporary sitting room; a room for all seasons, light streams in through a bay window to the front, a large side window with cushioned seat and a walk-in bay with a corner of bifolding doors to the rear, with its elevated views over the countryside in summertime. In winter, snuggle up in comfort before the log-burning stove, nestled within its handsome brick surround. With a balmy summer breeze drifting through from the corner of bifolding doors, the cosy sitting room transitions to open-plan dining kitchen, for a sociable free flow between spaces.

Designed for Life

A home defined by the light and views, skylights above continue the theme of natural illumination as the dining area meets with the central island breakfast bar, designed to soak in the open field views through a separate set of bifolding doors opening out to the garden. From its Quooker hot water tap to the array of culinary appliances on offer, this family kitchen offers effortless efficiency.

Family Time

Family living is at the heart of Hill House, with a versatile family room, now serving as a games room, opening up from the kitchen. French doors retain the ever-present sense of indoor-outdoor living. Practical places abound too, with a large utility room housing space for an extra fridge, and plumbing for a washer and dryer, with access through to the large, integral garage. Work from home in the peace and privacy of the study, tucked off the hallway overlooking the front. With integrated speakers in the ceiling, the home cinema offers another break-out space for teenagers or as a room to reconnect with the family for movie nights at the weekend.

And so to bed...

To the first floor, the principal suite makes the most of the far-reaching views out over the rolling fields to the rear, while French doors opening to a balcony at the front invite a cool refreshing breeze on balmy summer evenings. Freshen up in the shower room en suite, while the walk-in wardrobe offers storage for clothing, shoes and accessories. Four additional bedrooms provide plenty of space and light for family living, one opening onto a private balcony and with its own en suite, the remaining three served by a family bathroom brimming with storage.

What We Love About Hill House

“A family home with such easy flow, filled with light and views stretching unbroken to the horizon, where the garden and its all-season swimming pool beckon, Hill House awaits.”

Pizza, Pool and Panorama

Outdoors, Indian stone terraces wrap around the home in a continuous promenade of outdoor living. Dine al fresco, with a brickbuilt pizza oven standing at the ready for summer soirees beneath the golden sun. Lawns stretch out to both front and rear, framed by rolling views that flow out, uninterrupted, to the far horizon. In its own glasshouse pavilion, the swimming pool becomes an all-season sanctuary, its walls sliding back to invite the summer in. Tiled surrounds are perfect for sun loungers, while discreet smart technology effortlessly informs of the water quality.
