Description

An exceptionally spacious and versatile five bedroom barn conversion with a south-facing garden, parking, a useful outbuilding and beautiful views. EPC rating C.

2 Higher Farm is a wonderfully spacious, well-presented barn conversion, offering flexibility and character throughout and is ideal for any family seeking plenty of space. The property offers a useful barn to the front which offers potential for other uses, should consent be obtained.

Upon entering via the front door, you are greeted by a spacious entrance hall with Italian marble flooring throughout and ample built-in storage. There is easy access to all the main rooms on the ground floor, including the 33' triple aspect kitchen/dining room that is perfect for entertaining and provides plenty of space for a large dining table.
The kitchen has a comprehensive range of oak wall, base, and drawer units and a set of double doors opening out to the garden patio.

To the rear of the property, there is a large sitting room with a stunning exposed stone fireplace with a fitted log burner, exposed beams and enjoys a sunny dual aspect with doors also opening out to the garden. The fantastic space continues with a separate dining room, an office, utility room and w/c. All of the rooms enjoy very generous proportions and make for a superb, flexible family home.

On the first floor, the property offers five good size double bedrooms with en-suite shower rooms in the two to the rear, as well as a well-appointed family bathroom.

All of the bedrooms offer pleasant views across the neighbouring countryside, with four of them further benefitting from built-in wardrobes and storage cupboards.

AGENTS NOTE
The Seller (and successors-in-title) will retain ownership of the Access Track. This is between Main Road (highway maintainable at the public’s expense (HMPE)) and 2 Higher Farm Barn.

The Buyer (and successors-in-title) will be granted a right of access between the Main Road (HMPE) and 2 Higher Farm Barn. The route will be capable of being varied (shifted), at the sellers discretion.

OUTSIDE
Approached from the front, the property benefits from a large barn which is currently used for storage and offers potential for a multitude of uses, with space in front providing off-road parking.

To the rear, the property enjoys a large and delightfully landscaped south-facing garden with a pleasant open aspect. Within the garden are a selection of mature trees, well-stocked beds and established flora, whilst being afforded a good deal of privacy by the well-maintained hedgerow. Immediately abutting the house is a large patio area, which is ideal for outside dining and entertaining, whilst at the far end of the garden a five-bar gate leads onto an additional handy parking area.
