A contemporary barn conversion in a rural location with idyllic countryside views

About this property

  • This characterful detached home is a fine example of a modern barn conversion which perfectly blends into its beautiful rural surroundings with a mix of contemporary and rustic charm. The current owners have enhanced the interior and exterior spaces of the barn with high sensitivity offering approximately 777 sq ft of well-designed accommodation and showcases a modern open-plan living space which features a stunning vaulted ceiling with exposed beams. The space also includes two Velux windows and large bifold doors at the rear which allow excellent amounts of natural light and maximise views of the open countryside.

    The interiors are immaculately presented with high quality fixtures and fittings including bespoke locally made joinery providing highly practical storage solutions. Further features include underfloor heating and a lovely wood burning stove. The property also benefits from a pretty south east-facing garden and a gated driveway.

    The accommodation comprises a stunning open-plan living space, featuring a sleek integrated kitchen with central island and breakfast bar, along with a spacious sitting/dining room. Also on this floor there is a principal bedroom with freestanding roll top bath and a well-appointed shower room. Upstairs on the mezzanine level there is a further bedroom, currently used as a study, featuring a Velux window and a useful eaves storage space.

    The Barn is approached via wooden gates leading to a private gravel driveway with parking for several vehicles. The lovely cottage style flower garden has plenty of areas for entertaining and a raised terraced growing area at the front of the barn, completed spring 2022, which is made of oak sleepers, which is an ideal place for growing herbs, vegetables and cut flowers. There is also a garden shed and gravel seating area at the rear with a south-easterly aspect, perfect for al fresco dining and enjoying the beautiful surroundings.

I am rather partial to a log burner and there is nothing better than curling up by the fire and watching the weather roll past.
