3 bed detached house for sale

Prescott, Gotherington GL52

Oak Barn presents a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully converted three-bedroom barn set within approximately 3 acres in the highly sought-after hamlet of Prescott, where properties of this nature seldom come to market. Combining charm, privacy and excellent equestrian potential, the property enjoys an enviable position with uninterrupted views across its own land and the surrounding countryside.

Positioned to one side of the plot, the barn makes the most of its setting, allowing the acreage to unfold in front of it—ideal for those seeking a smallholding or an equestrian lifestyle.

Oak Barn
This is a thoughtfully extended and stylishly finished home, blending character features with modern living. The main living space is particularly impressive, with a vaulted ceiling, exposed timbers and bi-fold doors opening onto the patio, creating a light-filled and sociable area. A log burner provides a cosy focal point.

Just off the sitting room, the kitchen has a true farmhouse feel, with bespoke cabinetry, space for a range cooker and appliances, and ample room for either a central island or dining table depending on preference. It’s a practical yet inviting space, well suited to both everyday living and entertaining.

Also on the ground floor is a versatile additional room, currently used as a third bedroom but equally suited as a study, snug or hobby room. A modern shower room completes this level.

Upstairs, there are two generous double bedrooms, both enjoying far-reaching views across the surrounding hills. The family bathroom sits between them, fitted with a bath and shower over, finished in a clean, contemporary style. The master bedroom also benefits from a WC which could be altered to create a full ensuite.

Externally, the immediate gardens are beautifully maintained, with mature trees, well-kept lawns and several seating areas designed to take full advantage of the outlook. A patio adjoins the house with awnings for year-round use, while further terraced seating areas provide additional spots to relax and enjoy the setting. A well-appointed summer house, complete with power and heating, offers excellent flexibility—ideal as a home office, guest accommodation or peaceful retreat.

Land & Equestrian Facilities
The land extends to approximately 3 acres and is well arranged for equestrian or smallholding use. The paddocks are enclosed and offer good grazing, with a dedicated stable yard positioned towards the far end of the plot. The stable block includes three loose boxes, a tack room, hay storage and additional stores, providing a practical and well-equipped setup for horse owners.

There is also a useful vegetable garden area, adding to the property's self-sufficiency appeal.

Outbuildings are a real strength here, with a substantial structure comprising a garage, carport and workshop—ideal for vehicle storage, equipment, or as a workspace for hobbies or business use. Additional storage containers are discreetly positioned behind.

The property is heated via oil, with the boiler located to the side of the barn.
