Fulbrook House is a delightful and rare example of a bespoke barn conversion created from a modern oak framed barn.

Of black weatherboarded elevations beneath a pan tiled roof, you are immediately struck by the full height, glazed central section flanked by tall barn doors. A number of the windows have internal solid wood shutters and there is great attention to detail throughout the house from the oak doors to the French copper light fittings and bronzed ironmongery - hinges, handles and light switches. This is a home that was painstakingly designed to be fully enjoyed, the staircase is tucked away to allow as much space on the ground floor as was possible but the galleried landing and upper floor both enjoy wonderful vistas through the house and views to the courtyard beyond.

Here there is such a pleasing mix of character blended with appealing modern conveniences including double glazing, extensive insulation, zoned underfloor heating on the ground floor, solar panels and an air source heat pump.

Approaching the house from the courtyard, the front door leads directly to the light-filled wide hall with double doors directly opposite leading into the sitting room. This room can then be open to the adjoining dining room with its shuttered windows as double doors dissect the two areas. The sitting room has glazed doors to the rear, an impressive fireplace with woodburner, painted surround and raised pamment hearth and leads to the double aspect snug sitting room overlooking the side terrace also having a fireplace with woodburner and shelved storage either side. In addition, the hall leads to the double aspect study with its solid shutters and fitted shelving. At the opposite end of the hall is the staircase, beneath which is a cloakroom and to the right is the kitchen wing with vaulted ceiling and plenty of room for a family dining table. This wonderful family room with its exposed timber frame has a tiled floor, range of painted cupboards and drawers and a mix of wood and granite work surfaces. Fittings here include a Britannia Range. There are two half glazed doors flanking the six windows which all overlook the terraced garden and there is some additional raised storage. Beyond is the rear hall/boot room and back door, the adjoining utility room with plumbing and space for washing machine and tumble dryer and at the far end of this wing is an art studio (or potential ground floor bedroom) with en suite shower/cloaks.

On the first floor, the principal suite at the far end comprises bedroom with dressing area and bathroom, there are two further bedrooms, one used as a library and a family bathroom. The second floor incorporates two more vaulted spacious bedrooms with further storage, one of which incorporates an en suite shower room.

Outside
The house has vehicular access over the neighbouring drive and leads to a parking area. The delightful mature courtyard parterre garden with block paving incorporates a variety of herbs, old fashioned roses and box balls. There is a wood store and greenhouse to one side. An additional area of garden to the far side of the house incorporates a small shed and larger shed with potential perhaps for a variety of uses together with a former chicken run and second greenhouse. The Fulbrook is a stream running along part of the boundary and in addition there is access from the side garden back to the High Street.
