Description

Tithe Barn is a beautifully presented four-bedroom detached barn conversion offering flexible living and bedroom accommodation, in grounds approaching 3 acres, with stable building and paddock space ideal for horse enthusiasts.

The property has a wealth of character features, including flagstone floors, high-pitched beamed ceilings, and rough cast render to stonework. This is complemented with modern fixtures and fittings which create a warm and inviting environment.

The reception hallway with flagstone floors has a picture window to the rear enjoying views over the lawned garden. Stairs rise to the first-floor accommodation. Off the reception hall is a large storage area with fitted hanging and shelving.

Double doors lead into the cosy lounge, which is triple aspect including a picture window to the rear and arrow slit windows flanking a wood-burning stove which sits on a flagstone hearth. The room has exposed stonework to one wall.

An open doorway from the reception hall leads into an inner hallway, with doors flanked by glass panels leading into the rear garden. The room has a continuation of the same flagstone floors. An open doorway leads into the dining room which has a picture window to the side and a further window looking into the courtyard. The dining room has exposed wooden floorboards plus a loft inspection point.

Beyond the dining room is the impressive dual-aspect kitchen/breakfast room which offers a fitted range of base, larder, and island units with complementing work surfaces extending to a breakfast bar area. The room has high-pitched ceilings with visible roofing timbers, an oil-fired Aga cooking range, and space and plumbing for an American-style fridge/freezer and dishwasher. The kitchen is subdivided from the night hallway by built-in pantry and cloaks storage cupboards plus space-saver steps leading up to a mezzanine floor which overlooks the kitchen.

Off the night hallway are two double bedrooms. Bedroom three has two windows to the side aspect and a built-in shelved storage cupboard. Bedroom four has two windows with views into the courtyard. The ground-floor shower room has a white three-piece suite including double shower cubicle with mains power shower fitted, low-level WC, and sink unit with storage below.

The first-floor landing gives access to two further bedrooms and the family bathroom. Bedroom one is an impressive double bedroom, with high-pitched ceiling and visible roofing timbers. It has windows to two aspects and benefits from a walk-in wardrobe with fitted hanging rails. Bedroom two has a part-glazed door leading out to flagstone steps which lead down to the rear garden. This split-level bedroom could become a dressing room if buyers wish to create a master bedroom suite throughout the first floor.

The family bathroom, with window to the front, has a white four-piece suite including tiled shower enclosure with mains power shower fitted (currently not in use), a freestanding roll-top bath, low-level WC, and sink unit.

Outside: Enter via a five-bar gate onto a gravel driveway which leads into the courtyard with parking for several vehicles. Within the courtyard is a storage building and carport.

To the rear is a lawned garden with decked patio areas and mature shrub and flower borders. A hot tub is positioned on the rear patio area and will remain. To the side of the garden is a stable building with three stable boxes and a paved hardstanding. Beyond the stables is a productive cottage garden with polytunnel to remain and large enclosure for chickens. The two paddocks wrap around the cottage garden and stable building. The paddocks are bordered by mature hedgerow, stock-proof fencing, and stone walling.
