Detached barn in idyllic rural location with land and outbuildings.
The Tithe Barn is an impressive detached property with about 20 acres, situated at the end of a no through road and surrounded by open fields and countryside. Thought to have been converted in the late 1990s, the property has character features and offers generous, beautifully proportioned accommodation. The barn now presents an exciting opportunity for sympathetic modernisation, allowing the next owner to shape a truly exceptional home.
Throughout the property, original timbers, stonework and traditional joinery create a sense of history and authenticity.
Inside, the layout flows through a series of character filled spaces, starting at the entrance hall with tiled floor, and flowing through into the kitchen/breakfast room and sitting room.
The kitchen/breakfast room features a four-door Aga, a walk in larder, and adjoining utility room, offering a great foundation for potential modernisation. This leads through to the dining room with exposed beams and electric fireplace, with views to the courtyard garden.
There is also a generous drawing room which could also be converted into a ground floor bedroom/bathroom, subject to the usual planning consents.
To the west side of the barn is the sitting room with sliding doors opening to the south facing garden, with a gas fireplace.
On the first floor are three bedrooms. The principal suite enjoys double aspect views allowing plenty of light to flood through the room, with a vaulted ceiling, built in cupboards and an en suite shower room. There is a second bedroom with en suite and a further bedroom complemented by a family bathroom.
Outside, the south facing garden is mainly laid to lawn with attractive mature shrub borders, while the paved driveway provides off road parking for several vehicles. There are a range of outbuildings offering significant scope for future development, subject to the relevant consents. Currently, these include a tandem garage, workshop, and three storage spaces. An agricultural building sits within the land and is fitted with 4kW of solar panels, generating a feed in tariff of approximately £2,000 per annum in addition to providing free electricity to the property on sunny days. This building also offers potential for equestrian use, including conversion to stabling, subject to the relevant consents.
The property benefits from about 16.5 acres of grazing land, enclosed with post and rail and sheep fencing, along with a pond and an area of woodland. In all about 20 acres.
With its idyllic setting, extensive land, outbuildings and remarkable character, The Tithe Barn represents a rare chance to acquire a distinctive period home with outstanding scope for enhancement in a highly desirable rural location.
