📍Shirrell Heath, Southampton
💷 £Guide Price £1,850,000

Hillcrest House was designed and built by its current owners about twenty years ago, on the site of an earlier house. It stands in about 18 acres on the edge of Shirrell Heath: roughly an acre of gardens with a heated pool and two ponds, and around 17 acres of ancient woodland beyond.

The house is built in red brick and flint, with a turreted entrance and a large circular tower at the rear. Inside, it is arranged over five split levels, with about 5,294 sq ft of living space. The owners say the tower was inspired by buildings they knew in Edinburgh, and there are nods to Charles Rennie Mackintosh in the joinery and detailing.

• Approx. 6,000 sq. ft arranged over five floors
• Stunning countryside views
