About this property
Occupying a glorious rural position within approximately 16.2 acres of grounds, including around 9.36 acres of open fields and 6.89 acres of mature woodland, this striking contemporary barn has been thoughtfully designed to replace the original barn that once stood on the site, carefully maximising the far-reaching views across the surrounding Hampshire countryside.
Designed with sustainability at its core, the property combines striking contemporary architecture with exceptional environmental credentials. Constructed using recycled and recyclable materials and clad in finishes chosen to complement its rural surroundings, the house sits comfortably within the landscape. Modern energy-efficient features include underfloor heating throughout, an air source heat pump, roof-mounted solar panels and battery storage, delivering both environmental benefits and reduced running costs without compromising on comfort or style.
Distinctive features include exposed steel beams throughout the house, roof windows that flood the interiors with natural light, and a standing seam zinc roof whose elegant lines continue through the stylish roof overhangs and zinc-clad detailing. Timber cladding further enhances the barn-inspired design, creating a seamless connection between the home and its surroundings.
The impressive double-height entrance hall extends across the full width of the barn, providing a dramatic introduction to the property. Glazed double doors open into the magnificent open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, where double-height glazing and extensive sliding doors frame the countryside beyond and allow natural light to pour in throughout the day. A striking double-sided fireplace creates a focal point within the space, while warm honey-toned timber cladding to the walls and vaulted ceiling reinforces the connection with the natural landscape.
The beautifully crafted kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of cabinetry and integrated Siemens appliances, including double ovens and a double-width induction hob. Quartz work surfaces complement the contemporary design, whilst a large breakfast bar provides informal dining space. Pocket doors reveal a well-appointed larder, complete with wine fridge and fridge-freezer.
Practicality has been carefully considered throughout the home. A boot room provides an organised space for country wear and outdoor equipment and leads to a cloakroom. A useful utility room benefits from its own external access, while a separate snug offers a welcoming retreat away from the main living area.
A stylish floating oak staircase with glass balustrades rises to the first floor.
The principal bedroom suite enjoys elevated rural views and benefits from air conditioning, providing a comfortable and relaxing retreat throughout the year. The suite comprises a dressing room and luxurious en suite bathroom featuring twin wash basins and a separate shower.
The second bedroom also benefits from an en suite bathroom, whilst bedrooms three and four are served by a well-appointed bathroom. A generous storage cupboard completes the first-floor accommodation.
Many of the bedrooms enjoy uninterrupted vistas across the rolling Hampshire countryside.
