Overview

This stunning barn conversion enjoys full privacy with land, views across adjoining farmland and extremely flexible ground floor living space. Most recently added was a contemporary style 'live in' kitchen with roof lanterns for a light filled space together with bi-doors to enjoy the views and also access to an entertaining area. One of the notable features that sets the barn apart, is the large enclosed courtyard, accessed by the barn on three sides - landscaped and a perfect play area for children or for those who enjoy entertaining. On this theme, a barn within the grounds is equipped with an outdoor kitchen and large covered area.

With underfloor heating to the ground floor, the property has 5 bedrooms and great space for either working from home or independent living for relatives. Additionally and with planning an income could be generated from a holiday let.

Accommodation

Accessed via an attractive enclosed courtyard, the front door opens into an entrance hall with a cloaks cupboard and guest WC. Steps lead up into a bright hallway, illuminated by a full-height window, and flowing seamlessly into a spacious open-plan living space with exposed floorboards.

This thoughtfully designed living space includes a family snug with a large corner log burner, and a study/home office opposite. Centrally positioned are staircases leading both to the upper-level bedrooms and to the lower ground floor entrance.

Adjacent to the family area is a striking extension housing a generous 32ft open-plan live-in dining kitchen. Featuring limestone tiling with underfloor heating, two sets of bi-fold doors, and a picture bi-fold window with views from the sink. The kitchen is fitted with a range of base and wall units, solid oak worktops, a granite-topped island with breakfast bar and induction hob, and integrated appliances including an oven, combi steam oven, microwave and a dishwasher. Bifold doors open out onto an elevated terrace overlooking the courtyard.

The principal double bedroom is conveniently located on the ground floor and includes an en-suite shower room. An inner hallway leads to a utility area with laundry provisions, and a porch/boot room offers fitted storage and access to the courtyard. A second bedroom on this level enjoys full-width sliding doors to the courtyard and an en-suite shower room featuring a modern suite and luxury jet shower.

Upstairs, the first floor landing doubles as a dressing area with fitted wardrobes. Two separate staircases lead to two further double bedrooms, each with its own en-suite facilities.

Adjoining the barn on the other side of the courtyard, access leads into an independent living area if desired. Featuring underfloor heating throughout, there is a well-equipped breakfast kitchen, a spacious lounge/dining area, a double bedroom with en-suite shower room, and an additional separate bathroom.
