Description
This late 17th-century barn was beautifully converted in the 1990s. It offers a wonderful combination of period charm, original features and generous living space. Presented in excellent condition throughout, the property provides a distinctive home that successfully blends historic character with comfortable modern living.
The ground floor boasts an impressive arrangement of spacious reception rooms, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The generous living room provides a welcoming space in which to relax, with a vaulted-ceiling, two-storey double-aspect windows, and a log burner.
The separate dining room offers an ideal setting for hosting family and friends. The well-proportioned kitchen and breakfast room features ample storage options and space for various appliances, complemented by a practical utility room. Two ground-floor bedrooms, one accessed via a short staircase, and a shower room, add flexibility to the accommodation.
The first floor comprises three good-sized bedrooms, offering comfortable accommodation for family and guests. The principal bedroom features double-aspect windows and a large en-suite shower room. A further family bathroom serves the other bedrooms.
Externally, the property continues to impress with a substantial, south-facing, walled garden, offering plenty of space for outdoor dining, entertaining and relaxation. Off-street parking and a detached garage provide further practicality.
To the front, the eponymous granary provides additional storage or potential alternative uses. To the rear, the property opens onto farmed countryside and a network of footpaths and bridleways.
The Salisbury Hall estate is accessed via a private driveway off Ridge Hill. The Granary has easy access to St Albans and Potters Bar town centres and rail links. The property location is convenient for the M1, M25 and A1. A range of local amenities, shops and services are readily accessible, making this an appealing location for both commuters and those seeking country living.
