Description

Standing proud amongst idyllic rolling countryside, this handsome and substantial barn conversion boasts well in excess of 3,000 sq. ft. of striking accommodation arranged over two floors. Paired with a magical plot of 1.65 acres (STMS) packed with features and inspired landscaping, this truly is a home in which lifelong memories are assured alongside an enviable lifestyle in the country.

Upon entering, you are immediately greeted with the dramatic embrace of the vaulted reception hall with exposed timbers and butterfly staircase. Flanking the entrance hall is the elegant kitchen/breakfast room featuring a lovely statement Aga, as well as a well-equipped utility room with plenty of storage. Venturing further into the barn reveals a pair of breathtaking receptions; the vaulted dining room is flooded with natural light and enjoys direct access to the sun terrace whilst the extraordinary living room showcases a double sided exposed brick fireplace at its heart. Amongst the highly versatile space three are two superb ground floor bedrooms, both with en-suite bathrooms and direct access to the sheltered rear courtyard.

Rising to the first floor, three further double bedrooms bring yet more flexibility to this accomplished home and all are well served by the family bathroom. Equally useful as studies or additional receptions, the rooms are complemented by a brilliant galleried area which lends itself to a characterful library/reading area.

Sitting in a plot of 1.65 acres (STMS) means there is no shortage of features to discover amongst the grounds. Formal gardens around the immediate curtilage of the barn boast impeccable landscaping with well-tended lawns interspersed with thriving flower beds and mature trees. Raised fish ponds add to the tranquil environment, alongside a selection of paved terraces ideally placed to enjoy all day sunshine.

The large parking area features a double car port and double garage whilst the further grounds extend to a picturesque paddock/orchard with a lovely variety of fruit trees and measures approximately one acre (STMS). Within this, two walk-in vegetable growing enclosures stand, and a further ideal for chickens or other small animals. Additionally, there is a greenhouse for plants, and a soft fruit cage and cut flowers beside it.
