Woodhouse Farm Road, Pattiswick, Essex, CM77

One of just three barn conversions, this attractive home is set in the picturesque rural village of Pattiswick. Originally converted by a highly regarded local builder, the property has been thoughtfully maintained and further enhanced by the current owners, who have owned it from new.

Weather Vane Barn, Pattiswick

Set within a landscape of open farmland and historic woodland, Pattiswick offers some of the most quintessential Essex scenery. Despite its idyllic rural setting, the area enjoys excellent links to main trunk roads, nearby shopping facilities, charming villages, and Stansted International Airport.

The property itself was carefully designed with tradition in mind on the outside, using black weatherboard facades and slate roof tiles, while inside a more contemporary approach prevails. Sleek black aluminium windows, clean lines, and pale walls are beautifully softened by the warmth of the original oak beams.

A remotely operated oxidised-iron gate opens to a gravelled courtyard with extensive parking and a triple cartlodge/garage. Beyond, an enclosed lawned garden leads to the striking full-height glazing that frames the central staircase and gallery landing.

Step inside to the reception hall, which provides access to a practical utility room—ideal for muddy boots or paws—with ample storage and workspace, along with a cloakroom suite.

The grand hall is the heart of the home: a vaulted, polished-concrete space with exposed beams where light floods through. Its centrepiece is an ammonite-and-oak staircase with ironwork detailing, splitting midway and culminating at the gallery landing that spans the void. This wonderful space divides naturally into three flexible areas, making it as practical for family life as it is for entertaining.

A second reception room provides a more intimate setting and is currently arranged as a cinema room, perfectly complementing the grandeur of the main hall.

The kitchen is both stylish and functional, fitted with high-quality cabinetry and appliances, set beneath crisp white quartz surfaces and enjoying views over the front garden.

On the first floor, accommodation is arranged across two wings. The principal suite lies to the west, complete with its own en-suite and a further fifth bedroom that doubles as a dressing room. The east wing offers three additional double bedrooms and a spacious family bathroom with both bath and double shower.

Outside, the rear garden looks across open fields and woodland. Bordering the Markshall Estate, it is common to see herds of deer passing by. A broad patio offers the perfect place to entertain, with a well-kept lawn beyond. In one corner stands a temporary outbuilding currently used as a games room and bar.

Weather Vane Barn is an exceptional example of an Essex barn conversion: striking, spacious, and versatile, with a perfect balance of tradition and modern flair—all set in some of the county’s most picturesque surroundings.
