Description

An enchanting and beautifully presented five/six bedroom barn conversion, converted with flair and imagination, rich in character, with comfortable and practical accommodation throughout. It is set in a delightful rural hamlet close to the stunning coast, beautiful South Milton Beach, and Thurlestone Sands.

The Keeping Place is a traditional barn that has been converted with an exceptional amount of flair to create a wonderful home, rich in character yet with comfortable and practical accommodation. The solid oak floors and doors, attractive fireplaces, flagstone flooring, and a wealth of exposed beams and trusses all contribute to the warm and inviting atmosphere that greets you as you walk through the door. Already a successful holiday rental on Airbnb, The Keeping Place is an ideal investment for those seeking a rental property. No additional planning permission is required to continue its operation.

The ground floor offers spacious living accommodation comprising a gorgeous sitting room, a galleried dining hall, a beautifully fitted kitchen featuring a four-oven oil-fired Aga cooker, and a master bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and walk-in wardrobe. Additionally, on this floor, there is a separate snug, shower room, secondary kitchen, and a further bedroom/office—all with the potential to be closed off and used as a separate annex or holiday rental. The ground floor also enjoys multiple access points to the garden via patio doors from the master bedroom and dining room.

An oak staircase leads to a galleried and expansive landing on the first floor, which offers three further bedrooms, one en-suite shower room, a shared shower room, and a useful store room/6th bedroom.

At the front of the property, there is a very pretty and easily manageable garden enclosed by stone walls, with a level lawn and an attractive stone-paved sun terrace. Raised planting beds with shrubs and climbing plants, as well as an old water trough converted into a charming feature with a waterfall into a small pond, enhance the outdoor space. To one side of the garden, there is a gravelled hardstanding for parking and a well-screened oil-storage tank.
