Description
No. 1 New Barn Farm is a superb split level barn conversion offering approximately 3000 ft.2 of contemporary accommodation set in about 1.3 acres on the edge of the village of Itchen Abbas. The extensive accommodation comprises four large reception rooms, an excellent kitchen/dining room, principal bedroom with adjoining shower, three further bedrooms and two family bathrooms. In keeping with a barn conversion most rooms have high vaulted ceilings creating a wonderful feeling of light and space.
The property is approached through a welcoming reception hall with adjoining cloakroom and openings from here lead through to the drawing room and the kitchen/dining room. The drawing room is an excellent size with a fitted wood burner, an aspect to the front with double doors on to a raised terrace and also double doors leading through to the sitting room. The kitchen/dining room is a magnificent space, the kitchen fitted with an extensive range of units and appliances, the dining area is large with a door that leads through to the rear hallway. From the drawing room, double doors lead through into a large sitting room and from here a door leads through to the bedroom wing. A corridor provides access to all of the rooms, the principal bedroom with a door to a small terrace and an adjoining shower room, two further bedrooms, a family bathroom and a laundry room. The rear hallway, approached from the dining room, gives access to the guest bedroom, a bathroom and a study.
Outside
The property is approached over a gravel driveway leading to a parking area immediately adjacent to the property, a pathway from here leads up to the front door. Immediately adjacent to the front of the building is a large raised terrace, perfect for entertaining. The gardens to the front of the house are largely laid to lawn and there is a further superb feature, a part walled garden, again this area is perfect for entertaining and could benefit from a gazebo to potentially provide some shade if required.
The paddock to the front of the property, along the northern boundary of the paddocks are some out buildings which provide storage and could possibly be converted for other uses subject to the necessary planning permission. The garden continues around to the rear of the property where there is a further lawned area overlooking open fields.
Location
New Farm Barns are situated on the outskirts of the village of Itchen Abbas on the edge of open countryside and in the parish of St. Swithuns, Martyr Worthy and within the South Downs National Park. It is well located for ease of access to both the historic city of Winchester and the Georgian market town of Alresford.
Winchester centres around its cathedral and offers a wide range of facilities: Shops, restaurants, bars, banks, sports centre, cinema, museums, etc. Alresford offers fewer facilities; however, it is widely regarded as one of the most desirable market towns in Hampshire, offering a range of delightful shops and boutiques, bars and restaurants.
Schooling in the area is first class with both Private and State schools. Including nearby Princes Mead Prep school, Twyford Prep, Pilgrims, Winchester College and Peter Symonds College.
The surrounding countryside offers a wealth of country pursuits including trout and grayling fishing on the world renowned River Itchen, walking and horse riding. Avington Golf Course is nearby and further golf clubs can be found both in and around Winchester and Alresford.
A fast and regular train service is available to London Waterloo from Winchester, taking approximately 1 hour. Access to the M3 is within 4.4 miles, leading northbound to London and connecting southbound to the M27 along the south coast to many major centres, ports and Southampton International Airport.
The village itself offers a parish church, a well-known public house (The Trout), a village hall and a very popular local primary school.
