The Barn is a beautiful home which was converted from a collection of farm
buildings into a residential dwelling approximately 30 years ago.
Today we find a wonderful home offering flexible accommodation that will suit
a variety of different needs. The property has been renovated and refurbished
by the present owner with a new kitchen, new bathrooms, and underfloor heating
to name but a few.
**Welcome Home**
Stepping into the large dining hall with an open staircase to the first floor,
this delightful room has an open plan feel with a study area tucked away
beyond the staircase. There is a large dining area with charming features such
as exposed stone walls and the original timbers and cross beams, giving just a
hint of the buildings past.
This lovely space connects with the kitchen, the garden room and the sitting
room which allows for a great flow throughout the whole living area.
The wonderful dining kitchen is a real “hub of the home” with its range of
painted wall and floor standing cabinets arranged around a large island with
connecting casual dining area. Stylish yet practical porcelain floor tiles
have underfloor heating keeping toes cosy in cooler months while sunlight
floods the room with windows looking out on three aspects.
Beautiful granite work surfaces provide plenty of prep space along with an
extensive array of integrated appliances to suit even the most adventurous
cook! There are two combi/multifunction ovens with a warming drawer beneath, a
large induction hob complete with discreet pop up extractor fan, double fridge
freezers, a dishwasher and pull out bins.
Directly off the kitchen is a utility room with further storage and space for
white goods.
The wonderful sitting room has a vaulted ceiling with exposed cross timbers,
windows on two aspects and a large woodburning stove which is set within an
exposed stone hearth and surround. Again, with its connection to both the
dining hall and the garden room, the whole space has a fabulous flow
throughout.
Beyond the sitting room is a large bedroom suite with contemporary en suite
shower room, perfect for guests or those not wishing to use the stairs.
The en suite itself has underfloor heating and a large wet room style shower
area with rain head shower above, a loo and a vanity wash basin, a towel rail
and in built storage cabinets.
This area could be annexed from the main house with the current garage to
create an ideal annexe or Airbnb if required.
Walking from the kitchen, past the cloak room and boiler room we step back
into the dining hall and into a wonderful garden room with doors also to the
sitting room, and leading outside to the wonderful terrace and garden.
The garden room is the ideal place to relax, large enough for another dining
area along with plenty of room for comfy seating.
**First Floor**
From the reception hall an open staircase rises to a bright airy first floor
landing with semi vaulted ceiling and exposed cross timbers again, hinting at
the property’s past use.
There are three very generous bedrooms, one en suite plus a beautifully
appointed family bathroom.
The principal bedroom features a tall barn window overlooking the front
elevation and a beautifully appointed en suite bathroom with large shower,
loo, an inset vanity wash basin with granite counter top, contemporary tiling
and underfloor heating.
Next door is a lovely vaulted bedroom overlooking the rear garden along with
velux roof windows flooding the room with natural light.
The third bedroom is located to the far end of the hallway and has a semi
vaulted ceiling with exposed timbers and views across the front elevation.
The family bathroom has underfloor heating with contemporary tiling and is
fitted with a bath tub, separate shower, loo, towel rail and vanity basin with
in built storage.
**Step Outside**
To the front the property has a neat lawn with a pathway which runs along the
length of the property.
To the westerly side of the property, iron gates open to a shingle driveway
which in turn leads to a large double garage.
The rear walled garden has a lawn with a large stone terrace providing a great
space for alfresco dining and outdoor entertaining.
There is a further “secret” garden area beyond a wall which originally formed
part of an orchard and still retains fruit trees.
**Services**
Electric, water and mains drainage are understood to be connected. The
property has oil fired central heating. (none tested by the agent)
