Contemporary Living with Land – Approx. 1.5 Acres. Elmslodge Farm is an exceptional contemporary residence set within approximately 1.5 acres of private grounds and paddock land, positioned on the rural edge of the highly regarded village of Barrow Upon Soar. Extending to over 6,000 sq ft, the property combines substantial modern living with genuine lifestyle acreage, offering the rare opportunity to enjoy both architectural scale and equestrian or land-based flexibility within a highly accessible village setting.
First Impressions
Set behind private gated access, a sweeping driveway creates an immediate sense of arrival and privacy. The house sits confidently within its plot, framed by formal gardens that transition naturally into adjoining paddock land.
The scale of the grounds creates a setting that feels notably different from typical village homes — open, expansive and increasingly difficult to secure within such close proximity to amenities.
The Social Heart
At the centre of the home lies a spectacular games and bar suite, designed as the ultimate entertaining space. A vaulted ceiling with roof glazing enhances the architectural volume, while a bespoke bar installation anchors the room. Full width bi fold doors open directly onto the rear gardens, allowing gatherings to extend effortlessly outdoors during warmer months. With views stretching across your own land, the connection between internal entertaining and external space is seamless. This is a house designed not only for family life, but for hosting on a grand scale.
Ground Floor Living
The internal layout has been carefully conceived around flow, flexibility and function. A striking entrance hall with feature staircase and galleried landing forms a strong central axis, linking multiple reception spaces that can adapt to changing family needs. A refined main lounge with contemporary fireplace provides a more intimate retreat, connecting through to a cinema room and separate playroom. The kitchen and dining spaces form the practical core of the home. Sleek cabinetry, a substantial central island and integrated appliances combine with generous dining space to create an environment equally suited to daily family use or larger occasions.
Positioned discreetly to one side, a self contained annexe offers independent ground floor accommodation with its own entrance, open plan living kitchen and bedroom with en suite. It is ideal for guests, multigenerational living or extended family.
First Floor & Principal Suite
The first floor continues the sense of volume and refinement, arranged around a light filled galleried landing. Two generous double bedrooms benefit from en suite bath or shower rooms, alongside a further well proportioned bedroom. The principal suite offers a calm and private retreat, with generous proportions, a luxurious en suite and direct access to a private balcony. From here, open views extend across the surrounding landscape and adjoining land, reinforcing the sense of space and seclusion that defines the setting.
Equestrian and Lifestyle Potential
The grounds extend to approximately 1.5 acres in total, incorporating formal gardens and adjoining paddock land. The land provides genuine equestrian potential, comfortably supporting the keeping of horses subject to any necessary consents, while also offering flexibility for hobby farming, leisure use or enhanced privacy. Importantly, this is not simply surplus garden. It is usable, accessible land that meaningfully enhances both lifestyle and long term value. For buyers seeking space beyond the typical residential plot without sacrificing access to village amenities, Elmslodge Farm presents a rare balance.
Gardens and Grounds
Beyond the gated entrance, a generous driveway provides ample parking and reinforces the property’s sense of scale. The immediate gardens surrounding the house are arranged for enjoyment and entertaining, with patio areas positioned to capture views across the wider grounds. Lawn areas are framed by established boundaries, offering privacy without compromising openness.
Beyond, the paddock land expands the setting significantly, creating breathing space, outlook and opportunity rarely found in homes of this style and proximity to Barrow Upon Soar.
