A spacious character barn conversion on a plot of about 0.78 acres.
This Link-detached barn conversion is believed to have been built in the 17th century and originally formed part of Nomansland Farm and were likely used as stables and haylofts. The farmhouse and barns have now been converted and renovated to modern standards, though are Grade II listed and as such retain a wealth of character features throughout. Muntings Barn's history can be seen through its exposed timber beams and ceiling trusses, brick detailing and attractive solid wood doors, which are complemented by more modern additions such as wood parquet flooring, a water softener and a handsome country-style kitchen with Rangemaster stove. Though ready for immediate occupation, the well-presented interiors have a mostly neutral colour palette, making them ideal for easy personalisation by the new owner.
The total property offers almost 2700 sq.ft of space across two floors, with generously proportioned rooms throughout and high, lofty ceilings. The entrance hall is a welcoming space perfect for receiving visitors, and leads to a dining room, 25ft sitting room with wood-burning stove, a breakfast room and adjoining kitchen. A cloakroom with w.c. completes the ground floor. Upstairs there is a principal bedroom with en suite with a large bath and walk in shower, with the three additional bedrooms sharing a family bathroom.
The house is set at the end of a long, private driveway which is shared by the other properties on the former farm estate. The entrance is striking with box hedging on either side. There is ample parking to the front on a gravel driveway, plus access to the detached garage. The garden is a very generous size being about 0.78 acres and backs onto the woodland of Heartwood Forest, with mature trees and hedges providing a private and secluded outlook. A vast paved courtyard to the rear provides ample space for outdoor dining it's the ideal setting for summer parties, while the adjoining lawn is bordered by magnificent tall trees. Adjacent to the garden there is private access to Heartwood Forest via a neighbour's garden.
