An exceptional un-Listed brick barn professionally and creatively converted in 2016 to the highest standard, with well-appointed, open-plan accommodation, ideal for both family life and entertaining.

The property centres around the entrance hall and main living area, with vaulted ceiling, glazed gallery and bridge above. Stairs lead to the first floor and the drawing room is to one side, with a raised log-burner in the corner.

The kitchen is a fantastic space, with full vaulted ceiling and access to the gardens on both sides of the house. The luxury ‘handless' German kitchen is fitted with top of the range Siemens appliances and features a large stone topped island. There is ample space for family dining.

There are three bedrooms on the ground floor, one with en suite shower room, a family bathroom and a cloak room with adjoining WC. There is a separate utility area with boot room and stores at the far end of the house, with stairs down to the play room. There is also a wine room and store.

Upstairs, one of the main features of the barn is the enormous vaulted principal bedroom with a luxury en suite bathroom, dressing room (which could also be a good nursery) and balcony. Crossing the main living area, a bridge leads to a mezzanine study area and a fifth bedroom, with en suite shower room.

Outbuildings
Detached from the main house, the annex extends to about 1,700sq ft and has a highly insulated steel frame structure with attractive colour-washed Douglas Fir elevations, double glazing and a slate roof. A covered porch leads in to the ground floor with a living/dining room and adjoining kitchen area.

There are two double bedrooms, one with en suite shower and a separate bathroom. The open-plan first floor is extremely versatile, being an ideal games room/sitting area or cinema room. Adjoining the annex is a secure tractor/bike store with gardener's WC.

Fronting the village road is an attractive red brick Cart Shed. It is Grade II Listed and a beautiful example of its type, providing excellent storage or garaging. There is scope for alternative use and planning consent (Ref: 19/02887/LBWS) provides one option to sympathetically convert this into a luxury office unit. Please ask the selling agents for more information.

Outside
An electric five bar gate with hedging to either side opens onto a sweeping gravel driveway leading to the front of the property, with parking for numerous vehicles. The front garden is laid to lawn with fruit and specimen trees.

There are herbaceous borders framing the house with a beautiful horse chestnut tree. To the side of the house is a secluded sandstone patio area, well enclosed on all sides by hedging with a stone path to a “secret garden”.

The main rear garden is south facing and comprises a generous split-level sandstone terrace with surrounding well stocked herbaceous borders and raised beds. There are far-reaching views from the main lawn down the valley. In all the grounds extend to about 0.8 acre.
