Description

Situated on the fringes of an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, yet only a few minutes' drive from the historic market town of Berkhamsted, Hay Barn is a truly remarkable property. Nestled in a charming and secluded location, this stunning five bedroom barn conversion offers unrivaled views of the fabulous open countryside from its well-maintained gardens.

Originally converted in 2003, Hay Barn has been expertly designed to retain all the features and character of the original building while providing spacious and well-proportioned living spaces. The heart of the home is the large kitchen/breakfast room, boasting a vaulted ceiling, exquisite exposed beams, an Aga, ample storage, and a beautiful natural stone floor. A delightful secret wine cellar is easily accessible through a hidden hatch in the floor, adding a touch of mystery and charm.

The welcoming sitting room is adorned with a grand brick-built inglenook fireplace, complete with a cozy log burner, exposed beams, and doors that open up to the captivating garden. The dining room offers a generously proportioned space, perfect for hosting memorable gatherings. Additionally, there are two versatile rooms on the ground floor - a study and a snug/bedroom five with its own ensuite bathroom.

Convenience meets style with the addition of an excellent boot room/utility and a convenient cloakroom, completing the downstairs accommodation. Heading upstairs, the principal bedroom awaits, treating its occupants to fabulous views across the garden and beyond. It also includes its own ensuite bathroom for added luxury. Three additional bedrooms, one currently utilised as an office, along with a family bathroom, provide ample space for family or guests.

Approached via a long driveway, Hay Barn offers utmost privacy and tranquility. A charming five-bar gate gracefully welcomes you onto the private drive, offering ample parking space and leading to a double length garage. The rear garden, enclosed with elegant estate fencing, boasts a well-manicured lawn, tasteful shrub borders, and a delightful terrace with a covered pergola - an idyllic spot for entertaining during the warmer months.

Hay Barn is an exquisite property, perfectly blending rural charm with modern comforts. Don't miss the opportunity to make this remarkable barn conversion your own. Contact us today to arrange a viewing and experience the true beauty of Hay Barn for yourself.
