Accommodation

From the moment you step inside Lynwood Barns, the quality of design and finish is immediately apparent. The interiors flow beautifully from one space to another, creating an atmosphere that feels both wonderfully open and welcoming. Exceptional volumes, dramatic ceiling heights and expansive glazing flood the home with natural light while framing stunning views across the gardens and surrounding countryside.

At the centre of the home lies the magnificent open-plan kitchen, dining and living space extending to more than 40 feet in length. Created within a more recent architectural addition that cleverly connects the three original brick-built barns, this spectacular double-height room forms the true heart of the property and has been designed entirely around modern family living and entertaining.

A soaring vaulted ceiling amplifies the sense of scale, while large, glazed panels and recessed skylights draw natural light deep into the space throughout the day. Ultra-slim sliding glass doors open directly onto the landscaped central courtyard, creating a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living and allowing the entertaining areas to expand effortlessly during the warmer months.

The award-nominated bespoke Leicht German kitchen is a true centrepiece, celebrated for its innovative design and outstanding functionality. Beautifully appointed with sleek contemporary cabinetry, premium Gaggenau dual ovens and additional Siemens appliances, the kitchen combines cutting-edge practicality with elegant aesthetics. Fresh limewashed walls and a striking living wall filled with greenery soften the contemporary finishes, while Philips Hue intelligent lighting systems allow the ambience to be tailored perfectly for every occasion.

The dramatic principal living room is equally impressive and rich in character, showcasing magnificent, vaulted ceilings and original exposed timber roof trusses. A vast picture window frames uninterrupted views across the gardens and grounds, while a spectacular feature window has been carefully designed around an original beamed opening and brick archway, preserving the integrity and history of the original barn structure. A contemporary log burner set against exposed brickwork creates a striking focal point and introduces warmth and texture to the room.

The ground floor accommodation also incorporates a well-appointed utility room, guest cloakroom and additional storage areas, all finished to the same exacting standard as the principal living spaces.

Bedroom Accommodation

The bedroom accommodation at Lynwood Barns has been beautifully arranged to provide luxurious and versatile living for both family and guests.

The principal suite is particularly impressive, offering a serene and private retreat complete with an extensive dressing area fitted with bespoke floor-to-ceiling wardrobes and integrated drawer systems. The spacious bedroom area is beautifully proportioned and features ultra-slim sliding glass doors opening directly onto a private south-west-facing terrace bordered by elegant planters and mature shrubbery, creating a tranquil outdoor sanctuary.

The accompanying en suite bathroom is simply stunning, designed to evoke the atmosphere of a luxury boutique spa. A freestanding double-ended bath sits alongside a large walk-in shower, while luxury marble tiled walls and flooring elevate the sense of sophistication. Cleverly concealed LED lighting provides a soft ambient glow and the perfect finishing touch to this exceptional space.

Two further ground floor double bedrooms are positioned within an adjoining barn, each beautifully appointed with vaulted ceilings, exposed roof timbers and skylights that flood the rooms with natural light. Both bedrooms benefit from stylish en suite shower rooms, making them ideal for visiting guests, older children or multigenerational living arrangements.

A striking oak and glass staircase rises elegantly to the first floor, where two additional bedrooms continue the home’s sophisticated design language. One is currently utilised as an exceptional dressing room with bespoke integrated storage, although it could equally serve as a fifth bedroom, home office or studio space.

A beautifully finished family bathroom serves the first-floor accommodation and features a freestanding bath alongside a separate shower enclosure, continuing the luxurious specification evident throughout the home.

At the heart of the outdoor space lies the exquisitely landscaped central courtyard, thoughtfully designed as an elegant extension of the living accommodation. Richly planted borders overflow with fragrant lavender, roses and mature shrubbery, all enclosed by striking corten steel fencing that adds a contemporary architectural edge.

An outdoor kitchen and dedicated dining area make this an exceptional environment for entertaining, relaxed family gatherings and al fresco dining during the summer months.
