Description of Property

Glen Court Barn was converted in 2005 to an exceptional standard making the most of its wonderful position. Built of stone beneath a slate roof, Glen Court Barn is awash with period features and oak fittings combined with up to date necessities such as underfloor heating, a fabulous oak kitchen with granite work surfaces and en-suite showers or bathrooms to every bedroom.



There are solid oak doors throughout, oak floors, exposed beams and a particular fine pair of fireplaces with inset stoves, one oil fired and one log burner, in both the sitting and drawing rooms. However the open plan nature of the property allows these period features to flow rather than being intrusive.



There are two staircases up to the first floor and the spacious bedrooms have enviable views, ample built in cupboards and dressing areas, and there are 3 en-suite shower rooms and 2 en-suite bathrooms which have been finished to the highest standard.

The Garage Block

Gardens and Grounds

The gardens have been carefully landscaped to allow the house to make the most of the spectacular back-drop. From the kitchen a door leads out to a fabulous circular flag-stoned terrace with a further terrace outside the drawing room. Lawns flank the tarmacadam drive with herbaceous beds and a beautiful spring fed pond surrounded by specimen and apple trees.



A central enclosed gravelled Courtyard has a host of specimen trees and is flanked by a wall to one side and numerous French windows back to the house on the other three.



To the rear is a large area of grassland which runs around to the three fenced paddocks which border woodland to one side and the main drive to the other.
