A beautifully presented semi-detached character barn conversion that immediately captures attention with its charm, sense of space and attention to detail. Set within a small and attractive collection of similar period properties, the accommodation is arranged over three floors and has been meticulously improved throughout. Original character features blend effortlessly with high-quality contemporary finishes, including Flos lighting and a striking open fire, while underfloor heating serves the ground floor and central heating the first and second floors. Solar panels, installed in July 2023, enhance the home’s efficiency, complemented by double glazing and oil-fired central heating.

The property is approached from the village via a private lane leading to a parking area and access to the garage.

The second floor is dedicated to an impressive principal bedroom suite, offering a private and secluded retreat. The bedroom is generously proportioned and finished with oak flooring, complemented by a separate dressing room and a well-appointed en-suite bathroom featuring a roll-top enamel bath. This arrangement creates a calm and refined space, set apart from the principal living accommodation.

The ground floor forms the heart of the home and can also be accessed directly from the gardens. A spacious open-plan kitchen and dining room provides an excellent environment for both everyday living and entertaining, with ample worktop space and storage. This flows naturally into a large and inviting sitting room, centred around the open fire and featuring French doors opening out to the garden, enhancing the sense of space and natural light. A separate utility room adds further practicality and keeps household tasks discreetly contained.

Outside, the gardens lie to the front, side and rear and offer a combination of charm and ease of maintenance. The front garden is attractively arranged with paving, gravelled areas and planting, alongside a summer house, with a gently winding stream running through. The detached side garden is home to a variety of fruit trees and raised vegetable beds, creating a productive and enjoyable outdoor space. Pathways lead around the property to the enclosed rear gardens, while a separate piggery store provides additional external storage.
