Step Inside

The property is approached via a paved path from the shared gravelled parking area. A front door opens into a magnificent two-storey vaulted reception and dining hall. This impressive space is a striking introduction to the property, with exposed trusses, original brick walls that still bear markings of the barn’s past, and an oak floor. A staircase rises to a mezzanine landing, while multiple skylights flood the room with natural light. Patio doors lead directly to the garden, enhancing the sense of openness. Currently, the space beneath the mezzanine is used as a dining area, while the remainder serves as a welcoming reception.

A door from the hall leads into a ground floor cloakroom, fitted with a wash hand basin, WC, towel radiator and ample space for coats and shoes.

From the right of the reception hall, an inner hallway provides access to a useful study, ideal as a home office, and the formal sitting room.

The sitting room is a generously proportioned space, carpeted for comfort and accessed via glazed door which maintain a sense of connection with the main hall.

Two sets of French doors open onto the rear patio, creating a seamless link between indoors and outdoors and framing the panoramic countryside views. The focal point of this elegant room is an exposed brick chimney breast with a cast iron multi-fuel stove set on a slate hearth, offering a warm and inviting atmosphere.

To the left of the hall lies the impressive breakfast kitchen, a room that beautifully combines character with practicality. Dual-aspect windows offer views to both the front and rear gardens, while exposed beams add a sense of heritage.

A comprehensive range of modern cream Shaker-style base and wall units is set beneath oak worktops with elegant curved corners. A ceramic sink with spray tap, integrated dishwasher, larder cupboard and Sandyford aga provide everything required for a modern household, with the aga also supplying heating and hot water.

The kitchen further benefits from a freestanding island, fitted fridge and freezer, and additional space for an American-style fridge freezer. There is also provision for a washing machine and tumble dryer.

And So To Bed

The vaulted galleried landing overlooks the reception hall below, continuing the sense of drama and light, while also highlighting the original barn features. From here, access is provided to the four bedrooms and family bathroom.

The primary suite is a generous king-sized room with dual-aspect windows that capture the stunning outlook across the paddock and surrounding countryside. The adjoining en-suite shower room comprises a large glass-screened shower, wash hand basin and WC.

The second bedroom, located on the opposite side of the property, mirrors the proportions of the primary suite and also benefits from dual-aspect windows with glorious views.

Two further double bedrooms, each with attractive exposed trusses, offer ample space and character.

The family bathroom is fitted with a roll-top bath, tiled floor, wash hand basin and WC.

Outside

The property forms part of a select development of three barn conversions that share a gravelled parking area, with two allocated spaces. In addition, there is the benefit of a tandem garage providing further parking or storage. To the front, a lawned garden with paved pathway leads to the entrance.

To the rear, a delightful formal garden features a stone-paved patio, ideal for al fresco dining and entertaining, with the remainder laid to lawn and bordered with planting and fencing. A gate at the end of the garden opens into the paddock, providing an uninterrupted rural backdrop.

At the far end of the paddock, a separate access road leads to a substantial block of four timber-framed stables, comprising two 12ft x 10ft and two 12ft x 12ft boxes, along with a tack room and further covered stores.

The area benefits from gated access, a block-paved yard and additional parking, making it ideal for equestrian use or for accommodating a horse box. Alternatively, this space offers potential for conversion to further garaging or parking, subject to the necessary planning consents.
