A private countryside setting, without the compromise of isolation.
An exceptional five-bedroom residence, discreetly positioned within an exclusive gated development, enjoying a wonderfully private setting with generous gardens extending towards the river and open countryside beyond. Arranged over three floors, the property combines spacious contemporary living with a peaceful rural backdrop, whilst remaining conveniently placed for Atherstone and its surrounding amenities. A rare opportunity to acquire a home offering privacy, security and an enviable connection to the outdoors.

Description - Occupying a particularly appealing position within a small, private gated development, this property on Mythe Bridge Farm is an impressive five-bedroom home offering a distinctive balance of space, privacy and countryside living.

Arranged over three floors, the property provides versatile accommodation suited to modern family life, with five bedrooms complemented by two principal reception areas. At the heart of the home is an expansive open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, creating a natural focal point for everyday living and entertaining. A separate snug provides an additional, more intimate reception area, offering flexibility as a quiet retreat, reading room or informal sitting room.

The upper floors accommodate five bedrooms, arranged across the first and second floors, providing flexibility for family members, guests or those requiring dedicated working-from-home space.

Externally, the property enjoys a particularly attractive setting. Positioned behind private electric gates within a small community of neighbouring homes, the development offers a reassuring sense of privacy and exclusivity. The substantial rear garden provides generous outdoor space, with the grounds extending towards the adjoining river and open countryside beyond.

It is this relationship with the surrounding landscape that makes the setting so appealing. The property enjoys a wonderfully sheltered and private atmosphere, with the benefit of open countryside and natural surroundings, yet remains within convenient reach of Atherstone and the wider road network.

A home that offers considerably more than simply generous accommodation, combining a private gated setting, versatile three-storey living and an enviable connection to the surrounding countryside.

Seller's Story - What initially attracted us to the house was its beautiful location. With open fields behind, a river running along the bottom of the garden and some lovely countryside walks right on the doorstep, it felt like a very special place to call home. We love being able to enjoy the peace and space of the countryside, while still being within walking distance of the market square for a coffee or a relaxed evening sitting outside one of the local wine bars or pubs.
Having lived here, we've really appreciated how much the house has to offer. It's a wonderful home for family life, entertaining friends and simply enjoying the space both inside and out.

Without doubt, the large kitchen and open-plan living area is our favourite area. It's such a lovely, light and airy space, with fantastic views across the garden and surrounding countryside. It's incredibly versatile and has been the heart of our home, whether we're cooking, entertaining, spending time with family or simply relaxing.
We've moved the furniture around over the years to make the most of the space and have even had a full-size table tennis table in there! At Christmas, it always makes an appearance, with some very competitive family tournaments becoming something of a tradition.
For quieter evenings, we also love our separate living room, which we call the snug. It's the perfect place to retreat to when we're looking for somewhere a little cosier.

There are honestly too many memorable occasions to choose from! The house has been fantastic for entertaining, and we've hosted some wonderful parties and family celebrations here. The layout lends itself so well to having people over, with plenty of room for everyone to relax and enjoy themselves.
Some of our favourite times have been the simpler occasions too, particularly summer barbecues with friends and family, making the most of the large patio and garden. It's a house that really lends itself to bringing people together.

Without hesitation, the location and the neighbours aer both what we have enjoyed most. We've loved having such beautiful countryside and walks on our doorstep, the river at the bottom of the garden and the convenience of being able to walk into town whenever we fancy.
Just as importantly, we've been lucky to have such lovely neighbours, which has made living here all the more special. It's a wonderful balance of space, a peaceful setting and a friendly community.

There will be lots we'll miss, particularly the beautiful surroundings, the garden, the space for entertaining and, of course, our lovely neighbours.
Our children have now all grown up and are adults, so it's just the two of us at home. Having enjoyed this wonderful family home for so many years, we feel it's the right time to look towards our next adventure and let another family enjoy everything this house has to offer.
