Located in Wappenbury, Leamington Spa, Warwickshire, this decadent home offers a rich history and incredible amenities. On the market for £3.5 million, the nine-bedroom Victorian country mansion was built in 1894. George Bramley, a partner at Knight Frank, was once quoted as saying, "The Wappenbury Hall estate is a quintessential English country estate, and part of British history, as it was the home of Sir William Lyons, the founder of Jaguar car, for more than 50 years.” The estate features a large swimming pool, a summerhouse, a game room with arcade games, two tennis courts, multiple fireplaces, and a massive dining area. The home sits on more than thirty-six acres of land and has classic interior décor with a modern twist in some rooms.

This ten-bedroom home, built almost entirely using natural minerals, is listed at £25 million and located in Virginia Water, Surrey. The temperature in each room across the home's three sprawling floors can be separately controlled using an iPad. The device is also designed to control music, lighting, and electronic blinds. Sitting on approximately five acres, the home features ultra-modern décor that gives it a unique look both inside and out. It also has an open-concept floor plan on every level and massive glass walls and windows to provide expansive views of the beautiful outdoor gardens. Owners of the home enjoy a number of amenities, including an interior swimming pool, private theatre-style screening room, massive wine cellar, and beautiful marble bathroom featuring a walk-in rainfall shower.

Clive Hopkins, the head of farms and estates at Knight Frank, said the following about this property: "Bibury Court is probably in the best location you could ever dream of. It's near the village of Bibury, which is one of the most popular in the Cotswolds, and you've got a great combination of a wonderful house, beautiful rolling land, and a river, which is a rare thing, and great amenity potential. It's very rare to have an estate of this size and quality come on the market, especially in this part of the world.” With a price tag of around £17.5 million, this estate has a lot to offer. In addition to providing easy access to fishing on the River Coln, the home is gorgeous and contains classic décor with elegant modern touches throughout.

It is hard to tell where to start with this one. Brandsby Hall is located in Brandsby, York, North Yorkshire. Priced at £4.25 million, the home has a whopping ten bedrooms and a number of unique quarters that offer endless amenities. It also features a drawing room, billiard room, stunning walled garden, and eight bathrooms. Owners and guests can also enjoy its stable and coach house block with a refurbished squash court and the 3/4 bedroom cottage that is accessible off the rear drive. Often referred to as ‘The Hall’, the home recently underwent extensive renovations. However, classic original features, such as ornate plasterwork, door furniture, fireplaces, and shuttered windows, were preserved.
