Description

It would be hard to discover a prettier spot! Sitting at the end of a lane within an exclusive, and attractive, small community of restored farmhouses and buildings, this enchanting barn conversion is just superb. The present owner has thoroughly loved staying in this idyllic spot and enjoying the stunning countryside views and easy walks from the door.

Entering the house from the main courtyard there is a small hallway with doors that lead to a generous DOUBLE BEDROOM and Ensuite SHOWER ROOM. And through to a further DOUBLE BEDROOM on the ground floor.

The stairs rise to the FIRST FLOOR and living accommodation, here you will find another attractive and good-sized DOUBLE BEDROOM, with far reaching rural views.

The SHOWER ROOM also has lots of natural light streaming in.

The HOME OFFICE is a good size, with views out to the rear. It could be used as a further single bedroom if required.

The KITCHEN/DINING ROOM is a fully fitted with attractive wall and base units and work surfaces, it is easy to imagine yourself preparing your meals and looking at the fabulous view doing so!

Into the SITTING ROOM, which is lovely and light with windows overlooking the courtyard and the stunning views beyond and French doors onto the BALCONY, where there is space to sit and enjoy an al fresco lunch or a glass or two as you watch the sun going down; the views from here are exceptional.

Outside
As you come off the lane there is a communal parking area, which is used mainly as visitors parking.

The COURTYARD itself is delightful and is shared by the surrounding attractive properties. There are views across fields and to the pretty pond which is owned by a neighbour and bordered with a picket fence.

There is a small, sheltered area below the balcony, with outside power point and is arranged as artificial lawn.

The house has a SINGLE GARAGE, great for storage or for parking the car!
