Description
Occupying a substantial plot of over 5 acres (STMS), Homeworks are delighted to present this truly unique and characterful barn conversion, believed to date back to circa 1540. Rich in history and set within a desirable rural location, this one-of-a-kind home offers an exceptional opportunity for those seeking space, charm and versatility.
The accommodation is arranged across a generous ground floor layout, showcasing a wealth of original features alongside well-proportioned living spaces. At the heart of the home lies the impressive 18’6 kitchen/breakfast room, providing ample space for dining and everyday family life. A separate dining room/snug offers a cosy setting for more formal occasions or relaxation, while the spacious sitting room (16’4 x 15’10) creates a welcoming environment for entertaining.
The property offers flexible bedroom accommodation, with three to four double bedrooms depending on individual requirements. The principal bedroom measures an impressive 18’0 x 14’9, complemented by additional well-sized bedrooms, all accessed via a central hallway. A family bathroom and separate W.C. serve the home, enhancing practicality for busy households.
One of the standout features is the remarkable loft space, extending to approximately 93’5 in length. This vast area presents exciting potential for further development (subject to the necessary permissions), whether for additional accommodation, studio space or other uses, making this property as adaptable as it is distinctive.
Externally, the grounds are a key highlight, extending to over 5 acres (STMS) and offering a wonderful mix of open space, ideal for equestrian use, smallholding, or simply enjoying the surrounding countryside. The setting provides both privacy and a picturesque rural outlook.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a historic barn conversion of significant size and character, set within generous grounds in the sought-after village of Hockering. Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate everything this exceptional home has to offer.
