Description
A modern four/five double bedroom single storey detached barn conversion in a rural setting at the bottom of a lane with driveway parking and south west facing gardens overlooking fields, for sale with no upper chain. Surrounded by open countryside, the property was converted in 2018 in a traditional style including features such as exposed beams and timbers set into vaulted ceilings and exposed brick walls. The U-shaped plan with over 2,660 sq. ft. of ground floor accommodation includes an entrance hall with limestone flooring, a 28 ft. wide sitting room, and an open plan kitchen/dining/family room. The vaulted principal bedroom is dual aspect with exposed beams, a walk-in wardrobe and an en suite shower room. Bedroom two also has an en suite shower room and the other two bedrooms share a four piece family bathroom. A dual aspect snug could be a fifth bedroom; there are also utility and boiler rooms and a cloakroom.
The barn is reached via a drive shared with neighbouring properties and provides parking for up to three cars. The south west facing garden is principally lawned with shrub borders and an outdoor entertaining area with a brick-built barbeque.
Entrance Hall and Reception Rooms

A further door opens to the sitting room which has a feature fireplace housing a log burning stove and bi-fold doors to the sheltered garden. Also accessible from the hall is the open plan kitchen/dining/family room at the end of which is the gable end snug which overlooks the front and could be used as a fifth bedroom.

Flood Risk
Environment Agency open data, checked around the advertised map pin for the listed acreage. Long-term risk counts flood defences; the planning map's flood zones do not. The map pin for this listing marks the postcode area rather than the exact location, so these readings describe the surrounding area. Provided by LandSale, not the listing agent, and not part of the agent's particulars. Risk varies across a holding, so verify before committing.
