Description

Badgers Barn was converted in circa 1989 and has been used as a well needed retreat by the current vendors for the past 25 years. Nestled away within this little pocket of the village, the property is attached to an adjoining barn conversion and further property to the rear giving you the sense of a little community that is within walking distance of the village pub, primary school & store/post office. The internal accommodation is well balanced, as you enter the spacious entrance hall you are greeted by the first of two multi-fuel stoves and staircase to the first floor. The kitchen/dining room and sizeable sitting room (also with feature fireplace with inset multi-fuel stove) complete the ground floor. A gallery first floor landing with Velux window sits above the entrance hall allowing natural light to flood this ideal space to sit and relax where you will also enjoy the heat from the stove below. This family residence is completed with four bedrooms and two bathrooms. To fully appreciate the convenient location and character of Badgers Barn, viewings are essential.
