Hillside Road, Linton, DE12 6RA

Hidden within over two acres of private gardens and woodland, The Manor House is a magnificent Grade II Listed country residence dating back to the 17th Century. Offering over 6,500 sq ft of beautifully balanced accommodation, it combines heritage, privacy and exceptional family living in one remarkable home. The Details: Some homes stop you in your tracks the moment you arrive. The Manor House is one of those rare places — a Grade II Listed residence believed to date to the 17th Century, set within 2.2 acres of private grounds in the heart of the National Forest, with countryside views stretching out in every direction. Inside, the accommodation extends to over 5,200 sq ft across three floors. The beautiful farmhouse kitchen sits at the heart of the home, complete with an impressive AGA, exposed beams and French doors to the garden — the kind of room where everyone naturally gravitates. Generous reception rooms flow throughout the ground floor, each rich with period character: original Minton tile flooring in the entrance hall, elegant coving, period fireplaces and deep multi-pane windows that frame the grounds beautifully. The dining room is a spectacular entertaining space, and a separate sitting room offers quieter moments beside the fire. For modern family life, a dedicated cinema room with epic surround sound provides the ultimate retreat — the best of both worlds, without compromise. The first floor delivers spacious bedroom accommodation with far-reaching views, while the top floor has been transformed into a superb private gym complete with professional equipment and a remarkable steam room — a wellness space that rivals anything a luxury spa could offer. Step outside and the grounds truly set this property apart. Extending to approximately 2.2 acres of private, mature gardens, the setting is peaceful, secluded and utterly beautiful. A lawned tennis court sits within the grounds, and beside it, a charming converted summer house — fully insulated and useable year-round — with exposed brick walls, timber flooring, log burner and countryside views that make it feel every bit like a private pub. Whether it's hosting friends, summer evenings or quiet mornings with a coffee, this space is something genuinely special. The substantial triple garage block with additional store provides excellent flexibility for vehicles, hobbies or further storage, all set within a private courtyard to the rear. Linton is one of those quietly special villages that offers exactly the lifestyle so many buyers are searching for — space, scenery and a slower pace, without feeling disconnected from the world. Set within the heart of the National Forest, the village is surrounded by beautiful countryside, woodland walks and open green spaces. Nearby Foremark Reservoir, Calke Abbey and Staunton Harold provide wonderful days out, while Ashby-de-la-Zouch — just a short drive away — offers independent cafés, restaurants and a strong community feel. For commuters, the A42/M42 and A38 provide excellent access towards Birmingham, Derby, Nottingham and Leicester. Families are well served by local schooling and respected independents including Repton and Loughborough Schools within reach.
