Lime Barn is a superb, wonderfully spacious and light-filled barn conversion within grounds of over three-quarters of an acre, with an annexe, outbuildings and a three-bay cart lodge.

The original building dates from the 18th century and has been skilfully converted by our clients to create a well-proportioned and comfortable family home, retaining delightful period features and offering versatile accommodation.

The building has handsome elevations of red brick and black timber weatherboarding, with traditional pantiles and slate tiles.

The oak front door opens into the generous entrance hall. Floor to ceiling windows fill the room with natural light; glazed internal walls allow the light to fill through to the dining and garden rooms.

The open plan garden room is an excellent space for entertaining and relaxing, consisting of two snugs and a dining area. The room has an array of exposed timbers and French windows lead out to the central garden. Underfloor heating flows throughout the entirety of the ground floor.

Oak floor boards flow from the garden room into the drawing room, an enchanting triple-aspect room with exposed bricks and timbers, and a handsome chimneypiece with an inset contemporary wood burning stove.

The kitchen/breakfast room has a four-oven AGA, a separate Bosch oven and integrated Bosch dishwasher. The bespoke kitchen has ample storage space and granite worksurfaces, with beech worksurfaces on the island. French windows lead out to a balcony, ideal for a morning coffee.

A corridor off the kitchen leads to a utility, shower room and guest suite. This guest suite consist of a double bedroom with an en suite, and a guest sitting room.

Steps from the kitchen lead to a generous study, with French windows out to the central garden. Beyond the study is a capacious games room, which our clients presently use as a billiards room and which could also make a fantastic cinema room. It too has French windows off to the garden.

The self-contained annexe has a kitchen with an integrated oven, electric hob and dishwasher; sitting room; bathroom; and double bedroom. Separate access is provided via French windows.

The oak staircase leads up to the first floor with a galleried landing. To the right are three bedrooms and a family bathroom. To the left is the principal bedroom, a particularly fine room with an impressive gable end window, adjoining bathroom and built-in wardrobes. Completing the first floor is a further double bedroom with an en suite shower room.

Lime Barn is arranged around a central garden with an impressive terrace, ideal for al fresco dining, shrub borders and a number of specimen trees.

The grounds extend to about 0.81 of an acre and there are further areas of lawn including a wonderful, secure, hedged and fenced field with some beautiful mature trees and a summer house.

There are a number of outbuildings including a generous barn, which our clients use as a fantastic workshop, garden stores and a three bay cart lodge. There is further parking for numerous cars on the shingle drive.
