Location
A beautifully appointed barn conversion, furnished to a high standard with characterful features, within walking distance of a village.
Oak Barn is an extremely attractive barn conversion which has been beautifully and thoughtfully designed. South facing, the barn originally dates back to about 1778 and the current owner lovingly completed the conversion in 2012 . The property is built from solid stone with oak windows and doors and is full of character with exposed oak beams, inglenook stone fireplace and deep windowsills, with French doors to both reception rooms which open out onto the patio and gardens, offering a wonderful lifestyle. The property has underfloor heating on the ground and first floor and is set in an idyllic location, within parkland and approached via a private driveway approximately 3 miles from Oswestry.
Once arriving at Oak Barn, you are immediately met with the beautiful surroundings. The property is accessed via an Oak framed porch and door which opens into the entrance hall, fitted with Travertine tiled flooring, with a cloakroom and utility, and a ground floor double bedroom with an en suite shower room, fitted with floor to ceiling marble tiles.
The main reception rooms are to the left of the entrance hall and include a beautiful and spacious living room, with large glazed windows and French doors allowing in plenty of natural light, and an inglenook stone fireplace with a Dovre wood burning stove.
A glass and oak partition, provides access into the formal dining area which also has French doors and the secondary staircase, along with marble tiled flooring which continues into the kitchen. The partition allows the living room and dining area to become one room if needs be, which offers a fabulous space for entertaining, but can be closed to offer two separate rooms.
The kitchen is open plan off the dining room with a stable door leading outside to the back of the house, it is fitted with bespoke wood wall and base units, high gloss chrome light fittings and granite worktops. The Range cooker is available by separate negotiation.
The main staircase from the entrance hall lead up to the principal bedroom suite which is spacious with exposed beams and overlooks the gardens and fields beyond. There is an en suite luxurious bathroom which has a free standing bath and a separate shower with a vaulted ceiling and Velux windows and a separate dressing room which has plumbing in place should someone wish to put in a further bathroom. The dressing room also provides access to a bedroom/office and a door leads through to a bedroom 2/sitting room, which has a staircase leading down to the dining area.
Outside
Oak Barn sits in an enviable location, elevated above the surrounding countryside offering views over open fields and towards the village of Trefonen. The gardens are extremely private with a gravelled patio seating area along the front of the house, with a Jacuzzi nestled within. The garden has been designed to incorporate Bespoke local stone, for deep planted borders with shrubbery along the edge of a lawn area. Beyond the lawn you have borrowed views over a field which is lined with mature trees either side.
The property is approached via a private driveway to a gate which provides access to a parking area and two parking bays for Oak Barn.
