About this property

  • East Barn was formerly a detached, open-sided agricultural barn situated on the edge of the highly desirable village of Poole Keynes, on the western fringes of the Cotswold Water Park. The property is located amongst beautiful countryside, over which there are stunning views across the surrounding farmland, grass paddocks and woodland. In 2023 the haybarn was converted into a striking contemporary barn conversion, built of honeyed Cotswold stone to the front and clad in timber to the rear, under a slate roof. The construction utilises a number of modern energy saving features, including a mechanical heat recovery system, an air source heat pump and energy efficient A+ rated windows. The original exposed steel girders, and use of natural materials such as larchwood and glass, create an exceptionally stylish home which is 'future proofed', offering comfortable living and beautifully appointed accommodation for many years to come. Inside and out, the house is immaculately presented and ready for immediate occupation.

    Particular highlights include the galleried entrance hall, attractive open plan kitchen and living area, range cooker, country-style cabinetry and Belfast sink. The room serves as the centre of the home, and is open plan with an L-shaped living space creating room for a dining and seating area; bifold doors opening to the garden extend the living space outside in the warmer months. There's also a separate sitting room to the rear of the house, a snug/study, a utility room for laundry machines and a cloakroom with WC. Upstairs there are five good-size bedrooms including a main bedroom with dressing area and en suite shower room, plus two additional bath/shower rooms.

    Outside
    East Barn is approached over a gated gravel driveway with space for several vehicles at the front. The gardens of in excess of 0.4 acres are mostly lawned and wrap around the house, with hedges around the boundary and great potential for further landscaping. To the rear of the house there is a lovely courtyard area with plenty of space for garden furniture.
