7 homes to make you sing

We’ll be flexing our vocal cords as we sponsor The Voice UK for its 13th series, which lands back on our screens soon.

Which got us to thinking – if our homes were matched to a music genre, what might that be? Maybe it’s an indie-pop abode that bucks the mainstream. Or a folky hideaway in the heart of the countryside, for campfire nights with your guitar.

We’ve taken a look at some showstopping homes for sale right now, matching them with some of our favourite music genres you’re likely to hear being belted out on this year’s series of the show.

You might even find your music-match property while you’re Saturday-night scrolling on Rightmove… But in the meantime, why not take a look at these ‘match-made-in-music homes’ currently for sale:

Classical

It’s easy to imagine a host of symphonies sounding through this beautiful Georgian townhouse in Liverpool. Ceiling roses, sash windows, shutters and fireplaces are just some of the classic design features found inside, plus gardens to the front and rear.

Rock

Rock out in the most literal sense in this unique Derbyshire home, which comes with its own private access to the famed Cascades Gardens. The stunning neighbouring cliff-face acts as a backdrop to this 6-bed home, and surrounded waterfalls and outdoor dining areas make for the most dramatic of living space.

Soul

We can almost hear the hymns ringing out in this converted former church, which dates back to the 1800s. Original features and pristine modern accents have been combined to create a perfect living space, and there’s even an impressive heated swimming pool concealed inside.

Falsetto

Reach lofty heights and sky-high notes in this light-flooded home in Clerkenwell, north-east London. The warehouse-style design is befitting of the local area, where bright, open-plan living meets edgy industrial styling.

Country

Characterised by its storytelling lyrics, country music sprang to mind when we clocked this idyllic countryside retreat. The main house is filled with charming nooks, while patios and lawned areas outside offer incredible views of the neighbouring landscape. The perfect inspiration for any aspiring-lyricist future owners.

Metal

This stunning contemporary home is filled with clean lines, a dramatic pewter palette, and pops of colour. Imposing metal pillars and girders are offset by the woodland backdrop – an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, no less – while light floods in through expanses of floor-to-ceiling glass.

Chillout

Even looking at this house is making us do a lonnng, decompressing exhale, with its serene surrounding lake, tranquil neighbouring forest and wraparound balcony. This showstopping eco home also has an A EPC rating, solar panels and a heat pump.
