4 bed detached house for sale in Jobs Lane, Kemerton, GL20

There is a wonderful sense of arrival at Hill Furlong. Tucked away at the end of a quiet village lane in sought-after Kemerton, the house sits within just under 1.5 acres, surrounded by mature gardens and with extraordinary views towards Bredon Hill, the Cotswolds and Malvern Hills.

The house itself is a striking contemporary country home, designed around light, space and its connection with the landscape. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the expansive open-plan kitchen and living area. A 16ft island with Parisian blue quartz worktops forms an impressive centrepiece, complemented by an extensive range of integrated appliances, a Rangemaster induction cooker and Quooker tap. Wide bi-fold doors draw the gardens and countryside into the room and open the house naturally onto its generous entertaining terrace.

Alongside this principal living space are three further reception rooms and a separate study, giving the house considerable flexibility for family life, entertaining and home working.

The bedroom accommodation is equally well considered, with four bedroom suites. The principal bedroom is a particular highlight, opening onto its own spacious raised terrace and providing a private place from which to take in the surrounding countryside.

The home's contemporary credentials extend well beyond its architecture. Underfloor heating serves both floors, while solar panels, aluminium double glazing and an EPC rating of B contribute to an efficient and comfortable modern home. Utility, cloakroom and laundry spaces take care of the practicalities.

Outside, the gardens are wonderfully established and diverse. Extensive lawns sit alongside an enclosed kitchen garden with raised beds, while eucalyptus, oak, Canadian maple and walnut form part of the mature planting. Around 30 fruit trees, including apple, cherry and plum, add further interest and help create an environment rich in wildlife, with deer, birds of prey and several species of woodpecker among the reported visitors.

A double garage and workshop, greenhouse, plant room and gardener's WC complete the outside accommodation and with the correct planning permissions this could quite possibly become an annexe.

And then there are the views. From different parts of Hill Furlong, the outlook takes in the Cotswold Hills, Bredon Hill and the Malvern Hills, with clear days providing a vista said to extend for around 10 miles across the surrounding countryside, including the churches at Overbury and Kemerton.

Set within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with countryside walks close at hand, this is a home that feels genuinely immersed in its rural surroundings while remaining well connected to Tewkesbury, Broadway and Cheltenham.

Hill Furlong is a rare combination of contemporary architecture, substantial gardens and a beautiful village setting, with a house designed to celebrate the landscape around it.

The location

Kemerton sits beneath Bredon Hill amid some of the area's most attractive countryside and has an excellent local pub with great food and a characterful coffee shop. Hill Furlong enjoys an especially private position at the end of Jobs Lane, yet remains surprisingly accessible.
