Holly Bank – A Beautiful Family Home in an Enviable Setting
Nestled on the edge of a sought-after village, Holly Bank is a beautifully extended and meticulously maintained fourbedroom detached home offering over 2,600 sq. ft. of elegant living space. Thoughtfully designed to blend modern comfort with timeless style, this exceptional residence is set within 0.48 acres of stunning mature gardens, enjoying picturesque countryside views.
Step inside through a charming porch into a bright and spacious hallway, where high corniced ceilings and an oak and glass staircase set the tone for the refined interiors. The sitting room is an inviting space, featuring a striking marble Adam-style fireplace, dual-aspect windows, and stylish wall lighting. Flowing seamlessly through double doors, the dining room boasts rich oak flooring and leads into a delightful Victorian-style conservatory, where French doors open onto the rear garden— perfect for enjoying the changing seasons.
The heart of the home is the re-fitted kitchen/breakfast room, a superbly appointed space featuring sleek high-gloss cabinetry, granite work surfaces, and a full range of integrated appliances, including a six-hob range cooker and an induction hob with a double oven. A granite breakfast bar provides the perfect spot for morning coffee, while the utility area adds practical convenience with an additional sink and a walk-in pantry/storage cupboard.
Upstairs, the principal suite is a true retreat, complete with fitted wardrobes, a dedicated dressing room, and a private en-suite shower room.

Bedroom three benefits from a private en-suite cloakroom, while bedroom four enjoys charming garden views. A well-appointed family bathroom completes the first floor.
A versatile office—formerly bedroom two—offers a superb workspace but could also serve as a dressing room, an annexe sitting room, or an additional bedroom.
Surrounded by lush, mature gardens, Holly Bank enjoys a variety of outdoor spaces, including lawns, mature trees, and beautifully landscaped borders. An elevated York stone terrace offers an ideal setting for outdoor dining and entertaining, while an additional decked terrace and barbecue area provide further options for relaxation. A garden shed discreetly conceals an oil tank, and a wooded area adds character and privacy.

Nestled within the picturesque conservation village of Hellidon, Holly Bank is a home that perfectly balances space, light, and a strong sense of community. From the moment we stepped inside, we were drawn to its generous layout, where a beautifully appointed kitchen, three garages, and an elegant wrap-around garden create a lifestyle of both comfort and convenience. The tranquillity of its setting is complemented by exceptional connectivity, with effortless access to road and rail links, ensuring the best of both worlds.
A defining feature of Holly Bank is the seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. The full-height windows in the lounge and dining room bathe the interiors in natural light, while the conservatory truly brings the outside in, offering stunning views across the garden and open countryside beyond. Mornings here are a delight, with undulating fields stretching into the distance, creating a sense of peace and serenity that remains throughout the day.
The home has evolved with us over the years, reflecting both our love for entertaining and our appreciation for private, tranquil moments. The addition of a balcony to the guest bedroom has allowed family and friends to wake up to breathtaking views, while a newly designed staircase has further enhanced the flow and light of the hallway. The kitchen, at the heart of the home, was designed as a social hub, complete with double ovens and a range cooker, making it ideal for both relaxed meals and grand occasions. The dining room, with its elegant wooden flooring, lends itself beautifully to formal gatherings.
Holly Bank has been the setting for many cherished memories, from intimate dinner parties and lively Safari Suppers to summer garden celebrations. The extensive decking area is perfect for al fresco dining, while the large patio provides the ideal backdrop for barbecues or a quiet afternoon tea, surrounded by the gentle hum of birdsong and the seasonal blooms that bring the garden to life.
Beyond the walls of the home, Hellidon offers an enviable lifestyle. The village itself is a warm and welcoming community where neighbours are always ready to offer a helping hand. Throughout the year, local events bring people together, fostering a true sense of belonging. The Red Lion, a renowned gastro pub, sits at the heart of village life, providing an inviting spot for fine dining and camaraderie.
For those who love the outdoors, the surrounding area presents an abundance of opportunities. Scenic country walks along local footpaths and canals, visits to the exquisite Compton Verney Art Gallery, and days out in the vibrant town of Leamington Spa are just a few of the many pleasures to enjoy. Motorsport enthusiasts will appreciate proximity to Silverstone, while National Trust properties, prestigious golf courses, and equestrian facilities ensure a diverse and fulfilling lifestyle.
Perhaps what we have loved most about Holly Bank is the balance it offers—between connection and privacy, tradition and modernity, grand entertaining and peaceful retreat. Whether gathering loved ones for a celebration, enjoying a quiet evening by the fire, or simply watching the changing seasons from the conservatory, this home has provided a truly special way of life.
To its next custodians, we would say: embrace the village and all it has to offer, but also savour the tranquillity and space that Holly Bank provides. Make the most of the garden, the light-filled rooms, and the inviting social spaces. Above all, enjoy every moment in this wonderful home, as we have done.*
