Description

This exceptional barn conversion in the popular Kerry Valley is set in a peaceful rural location with far reaching views across the Montgomeryshire countryside and the Welsh hills. Originally a grain store, its unusually wide footprint creates beautifully proportioned, light filled rooms and an impressive sense of openness, rarely found in traditional barn conversions. Approached via a private gravelled driveway shared with six neighbouring homes, it offers an ideal balance of privacy in both front and rear gardens and a welcoming rural community.

Situation - Situated in a peaceful rural setting, the property enjoys lovely, far reaching views across the Montgomeryshire countryside and the Welsh hills. Access is via a private gravelled driveway shared with six neighbouring dwellings, offering both privacy and a sense of community.

The village of Kerry is just a five minute drive away. Located on the A489, 2.8 miles south east of Newtown, Kerry provides a good range of local amenities including two pubs, a church, village hall, bowling green, post office, village store and a primary school.

A wider selection of shops, services, and leisure facilities can be found in Newtown and Welshpool, both of which have train stations on the Cambrian railway line, providing convenient links across Wales and into England.

Reception Hall - A spacious and welcoming entrance hall with cloakroom, setting the tone for the quality and craftsmanship found throughout.

Bedroom 1 - A generous ground floor double bedroom with en suite bathroom and french doors framing far reaching views across the Welsh countryside and giving direct access to the rear garden; a perfect room for guests, extended family or flexible living arrangements.

Lounge - A superb open plan lounge forming the true heart of the home. This bright and airy space features vaulted ceilings, striking exposed timber beams and a charming log burning stove for cosy evenings. Access directly into the rear garden.

Kitchen/Dining Area - The oak flooring continues seamlessly into the stylish American style kitchen diner, positioned at the opposite end of the home and enjoying its own countryside outlook. High quality integrated appliances (including induction hob, oven, fridge and dishwasher) pair with extensive oak worktops to create a practical yet elegant cooking and dining space. A door leads out to the gently sloping lawned garden.

First Floor Bedroom 2 - Principal Suite - A beautifully appointed principal bedroom featuring a latched oak door, vaulted ceiling, exposed beam and large windows capturing idyllic rural views.

Bedroom 3 / Study - A light filled single bedroom, ideal as a home office, nursery or occasional guest room.

Family Bathroom - A stylish family bathroom with panelled bath and rainfall shower, modern wash basin and WC. Limestone flooring, a heated towel rail and an exposed beam create a calm, spa like atmosphere.

Externally - Externally, the property benefits from a gated parking area with space for two vehicles, along with steps leading up to a small paved and railed patio at the front entrance. From here, an archway opens into the front walled garden, which is laid to lawn and complemented by herbaceous borders and ornamental trees. The garden can also be accessed directly from the kitchen.

To the rear, the enclosed garden features a timber summer house, raised flower beds and established shrubs. There is slate ground cover (rather than lawn) creating a low maintenance outdoor space that is ideal for outdoor entertaining or simply enjoying the open countryside beyond. A pedestrian gate provides access to the driveway. The garden is reached via steps leading up from both the lounge and the ground floor bedroom, offering an elevated outlook over the area.

Services - Mains electricity, private water supply (bore hole), private drainage and LPG central heating are connected at the property. None of these services have been tested by Halls.

£54.60 is payable each month to the Management Company account to pay for regular grass cutting of the drive and electricity used pumping water from the borehole to each property. Any additional bills relating to shared amenities are shared.
