As autumn brings golden leaves, let’s explore some of the finest homes in the countryside.
1. Devizes, Wiltshire
Picture an idyllic period property on the edge of a Wiltshire village, and you might see this Grade II listed home, built in 1750 and extended by the current owners. This is the first time it has been on the market in 30 years, possibly due to its beautiful period features, including oak floors, mahogany stair rails, and open fireplaces that welcome you to handsome rooms. The lawn rolls down to the stream, while the gardens feature a large summerhouse with a kitchen, a BBQ terrace and a tennis court.
This property is on the market with Winkworth Salisbury on 01722 443000.
2. Virginia Water, Surrey
How about an address in the world-renowned Wentworth Estate? This new mansion sits on 1.2 acres of greenery, beside the 18th fairway of the West Course and the golf clubhouse. After rubbing shoulders in this exclusive community, discover the six-bedroom property which includes four reception rooms and a leisure complex featuring a swimming pool, sauna, steam room and gym. And, for those extra touches of luxury, don’t forget the wine experience room and cinema.

3. Stoke Poges, Buckinghamshire
A wooden bridge across a stream sets the tone for this six-bedroom property in Stoke Poges village.

Enjoy an indoor pool complete with a sauna in this serene setting.

4. Barnes, London
If you’re not quite ready to leave the city, combine the best of both worlds with this six-bedroom property that enjoys panoramic views across the Barnes Wetlands Centre.

Upstairs, the bedrooms are all thoughtfully designed and include a charming master bedroom with a private balcony for a quiet spot to take in the views.

- Norwich, Norfolk
What makes this seven-bedroom barn conversion unique? Maybe it’s how the building celebrates its eighteenth-century origins with the help of Norfolk Historic Planning, and now combines real character with luxurious living space across 2,100 square feet. Or maybe it’s the collection of additional outbuildings, including a three-bedroom detached annexe and a holiday lodge, all nestled in picturesque grounds.
