The Property

This substantial family home was constructed for the current owners by Glencoe homes

in 2000/1. The property was a bespoke building project in the former grounds of

Rotherby nurseries, which comprised a conversion of a range of period buildings and

barns and the construction of two brand new homes. Hoby View was therefore a

project to design and build a property to an exacting specification, which has subsequently

been upgraded and remodelled. Design features include a superb living/dining kitchen, a

large reception hall with a galleried landing over, a full width balcony off the master

bedroom and high ceilings with deep moulded cornicing, which give a feel of space and

light. The accommodation is extensive; the property offers a total of up to seven

bedrooms, three en-suite shower rooms, and a four piece family bathroom. The dressing

room and study are fitted with bespoke furniture by Moir & Wade, and the boot room

was designed and fitted by Shortland Crafts. The rear elevation enjoys spectacular west

facing views over landscaped garden towards the village of Hoby, providing magnificent

sunsets and views of The Wreake Valley. The property lends itself to entertaining, with

an immaculate drawing room with doors through to a dining room. An open plan kitchen,

breakfast room and family room ensure the house retains a warm family feel. The second

floor en-suite bedroom with adjacent sitting room is ideal for a teenager or independent

adult, au pair or as a playroom for younger children.
