Description

CHARACTER STONE COTTAGE ON APPROX. 0.42 ACRE PLOT WITH BEAUTIFUL GARDENS, OUTBUILDINGS & FLEXIBLE LIVING – PRIME POSITION IN GLENTHAM

Kinetic Estate Agents are delighted to present Barn Cottage, a charming and beautifully positioned stone-built residence tucked away along a private driveway in the heart of Glentham. Set on a substantial plot of approximately 0.42 acres (STS), this unique home combines rustic period character with thoughtfully upgraded interiors and exceptional outdoor space — creating a truly special countryside retreat. The property also presents excellent potential for further extension or annexe creation (subject to planning).

What Kinetic Estate Agents Love About This Home

Nina Sharpe (Sales Director): “The character here is simply wonderful. The beams, stonework and cottage features combine so beautifully with the updated kitchen and modern touches.”

Rob Webb (Director): “The plot is fantastic — large, private, and incredibly versatile. The converted barn bar is a brilliant surprise and makes this home stand out.”

Charley Moreton (Sales Executive): “The kitchen diner is stunning. It’s a real showpiece and perfect for families or entertaining.”

Step Inside

Approached along a long, private driveway and screened beautifully from the lane, Barn Cottage immediately sets a tone of calm and seclusion. Stepping through the front door, the entrance hall welcomes you with tiled flooring underfoot, exposed character features and the gentle charm that runs throughout the entire home. The stairs rise ahead to the first floor, while an understairs cupboard provides practical storage.

To the left, the lounge (17'1" x 12'6") offers an inviting retreat at any time of year. A log burner forms a cosy focal point on cooler evenings, while the uPVC window frames peaceful views across the grounds. It is a wonderfully comfortable room — perfect for unwinding after a long day or gathering with family. Moving through to the kitchen diner (17'1" x 13'7"), you arrive at the heart of this enchanting home. Solid oak flooring and oak worktops create warmth and texture, complemented by a Belfast sink and a beautifully appointed range of units. The central island, topped with quartz, provides both sociable seating and additional storage, making it ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. Two integral ovens, a five-ring gas hob with extractor, space for an American fridge freezer, and spotlighting complete the specification. A doorway leads through to a characterful walk-in pantry (6'6" x 3'4"), fitted with quarry tiles, shelving and a window — a delightful and practical feature rarely found in modern homes. Beyond the kitchen, the generous utility and boot room (23'2" x 8'3") offers exceptional functionality, with oak worktops, ample storage, a Belfast sink, plumbing for laundry appliances, tiled flooring and access to the garden — the perfect place for muddy boots, pets or gardening essentials. A ground floor WC sits nearby, fitted with a high-level cistern and wash basin. Also on the ground floor is Bedroom Four (13'7" x 7'10"), a versatile double room with a uPVC window and radiator. Whether used as guest accommodation, a home office or a multi-generational bedroom, it offers valuable flexibility. The adjoining en-suite (5'9" x 4'6") is currently undergoing refurbishment, leaving a blank canvas for the new owner to complete in their preferred style.

The charm continues as you climb the stairs to the first floor, where the landing reveals exposed beams, a uPVC window and useful storage cupboard. The principal bedroom (17'1" x 12'6") is a wonderfully proportioned space with two uPVC windows allowing natural light to pour in. Laminate flooring, exposed beams, a built-in wardrobe and a radiator complete this serene retreat. Bedroom Two (11'11" x 8'10") is another bright double with exposed beams, built-in wardrobe, radiator and uPVC window, while Bedroom Three (10'1" x 7'11") provides a well-sized single bedroom with its own pleasant outlook. The family bathroom (6'8" x 6'7") features a panelled bath with mains shower over, wash basin, low-level WC, vinyl flooring, tiled splashbacks, radiator, heated towel rail and a uPVC window — offering everything needed for busy family mornings.

The magic of Barn Cottage extends far beyond the walls of the home. Set on approximately 0.42 acres (STS), the grounds provide a truly idyllic setting for outdoor living. A gated area gives way to generous parking, surrounded by sweeping lawns and mature trees that create both beauty and privacy. To one side, a former pigsty — now used as a chicken house — adds a nod to the property’s heritage. A charming, enclosed courtyard leads to the converted barn, which has been thoughtfully transformed into a bar and entertaining space, perfect for gatherings with family and friends. With such extensive grounds, there is abundant potential for landscaping, vegetable growing, or even further development (subject to planning). Barn Cottage offers a rare opportunity to enjoy a lifestyle of tranquillity, charm and space in a wonderfully private rural setting.
