Location
A substantial family home in attractive gardens with equestrian and leisure facilities including a swimming pool.
Highcroft Barn is a most impressive, detached character home with fantastic leisure facilities for both keen equestrians and swimmers, with lots of space inside and out for enjoying spending time at home. The barn conversion was converted to a house in 1995 and extended in 2017 to create a generously proportioned residence that's finished to a very high standard, with contemporary décor enhancing the plentiful character features which include wood floors, an oak staircase and gorgeous exposed beams, and Farrow & Ball paint throughout. The house is packed with desired features, air conditioning, intercom for the front gate and a stylish bespoke handmade kitchen with AGA and a range of premium appliances.
This a substantial home of almost 5000 sq ft, with the accommodation generously proportioned throughout and arranged over two floors. The layout is arranged in an L-shape, with the formal reception rooms forming one side and the kitchen, dining and ancillary rooms on the other. A long hallway provides access to a 27ft formal sitting room, a snug and a family room, with the leisure facilities on the back of the house providing space for a gym or studio, with attached changing rooms and a cloakroom with WC. At one end the hall opens to the warm and welcoming farmhouse style kitchen, which leads onto a separate entrance hallway and a dining room, utility room and WC. There is also handy internal access to the garage. The bedrooms upstairs are equally spacious, including a principal bedroom with dressing room and en suite facilities, an en suite guest bedroom, three further bedrooms and a family bath/shower room.
The house is set within beautifully landscaped gardens which were designed by award-winning designer Stephen Welch in 2017. The gardens feature lawns, a wealth of mature planting and terraces for enjoying the rural views. There is plenty of parking, an attached garage and recently refurbished swimming pool. The land amounts to about 5.3 acres and has paddocks and a ménage, while there is a detached stable block with storage, making it the ideal home for riders.

This is a wonderful house ideal for losing your family in with so much space for everyone inside and out, I especially like the swimming pool area which is a real sun trap
