Description
Grade II Listed Barn
Courtyard Barn is an impressive 4 bedroom, grade 2 listed conversion, providing a beautiful modern home with character woven throughout. With a gated access, driveway and courtyard, as well as a garden extending to approximately 150 ft in length the property provides a wonderful opportunity to escape to the countryside, while being in easy reach of Brentwood and Shenfield.
A double height entrance hall greets you as you enter the property, showcasing the stunning period beams, located throughout the entire property, as well as the main staircase, leading up to a mezzanine gallery which overlooks the double height living space on the ground floor. The feature brick fireplace is the focal point of the space, serving the room with and open plan ground floor space.
The ground floor further accommodates a second entertaining space, as well as dining room, leading to a recently renovated open plan kitchen, featuring striking centre island and modern appliances. With a direct access to the external courtyard, as well as a dedicated utility room off the kitchen, the versatile space is perfect for entertaining in all seasons. There is an additional versatile ground floor snug/home office space, as well as W/C completing the ground floor.
The first floor comprises the galleried mezzanine overlooking the living space, and access off the main staircase, and links to the first of the three bedrooms on this floor. The additional two bedrooms, one of which also benefits from an en-suite, complete the accommodation on the first floor. An additional bedroom/loft room is accessible via a short staircase up to the eves, and also benefits from its own en-suite. A perfect space for an additional bedroom or snug.
