Swallowfield is a beautifully crafted stone barn conversion, discreetly tucked away and set within 0.62 acres of mature, landscaped gardens. A further 5.64 acres of land lies beyond, available by separate negotiation for those seeking additional space or equestrian potential.

The property enjoys a peaceful, private setting, shared with just one other home and approached via a quiet private lane. Though wonderfully secluded, it never feels remote.

The main entrance is striking a solid door framed by a picture window, drawing natural light into the generous reception hall beyond. A second door opens to the rear terrace, where broad stone paving and a sheltered seating area take full advantage of the panoramic views across open countryside, a constant and defining feature of this exceptional home.

The entrance hall sets the tone from the outset. Vaulted and beamed, with two staircases rising to the first floor, it is a space of real presence and warmth. Glazing to the rear captures the surrounding landscape perfectly.

At the heart of the home, the kitchen is fitted with oak-fronted units, granite work surfaces, and a range of integrated appliances. A glazed door opens directly to the garden, and there is plenty of space for relaxed family dining or informal gathering. Off the entrance hall, a practical utility room and guest cloakroom complete this part of the house.

The formal dining room lies just beyond - rich in character, with original stone mullioned windows to two sides and a handsome stone fireplace at its centre. It links easily with both the kitchen and reception hall, making it ideal for entertaining.

The main sitting room is generous in scale and beautifully light, with an electric flame-effect stove set into a brick fireplace and French windows framing the gardens to the rear. From here, a door leads through to a second lounge or study creating a wonderfully versatile space with dual aspect windows and its own staircase leading to a first-floor bedroom suite. Currently arranged as guest accommodation, this space includes built-in storage and a well-appointed en-suite shower room, and would equally suit a teenager or dependent relative. A charming original stone staircase, visible from the escape window, adds architectural character and hints at the potential to create a more independent annexe, subject to consents.

The bedroom accommodation is arranged across two wings, each accessed by its own staircase. One leads to two lovely bedrooms, both enjoying elevated rural views, served by a smart shower room. The second staircase leads to a further double bedroom and the principal suite, these two sharing a large shower room.

The gardens are a particular highlight and are thoughtfully landscaped and predominantly laid to lawn, with well-stocked borders, mature trees, and a wonderful sense of privacy. A broad gravelled driveway sweeps in from the private road to a wide turning circle, with further cobbled parking in front of the double garage. A large rear terrace, complete with ornamental pond, makes an inviting space for summer dining, and a charming summerhouse lies just beyond the lawn. There is also a productive orchard with mature pear and apple trees, and the adjoining land, extending to over five and a half acres, offers further potential and flexibility.

In addition to the main house and garage, there is a useful range of outbuildings, including a workshop and garden store known as The Shippon.

This is a truly individual and beautifully positioned home, where thoughtful conversion meets timeless character, all set within an exceptional plot. Viewing is strongly recommended to appreciate both the house and its setting.

Equestrian Potential.
