Description

Steven Oates are delighted to present this absolutely stunning two-bedroom barn conversion, enviably positioned within an idyllic semi-rural setting.

The ground floor welcomes you via an inviting entrance hallway with a useful storage cupboard, leading to a generously sized double bedroom complete with a contemporary en-suite shower room, currently utilised as an excellent guest suite. There is also a well-appointed kitchen featuring integrated appliances and space for a dining table and chairs. To the rear of the property, you step down into the impressive living/dining room — a superb entertaining space filled with character and perfectly designed for both relaxing and hosting guests. The first floor is dedicated entirely to the principal bedroom suite, comprising a spacious bedroom enjoying delightful countryside views, a generous bathroom, and useful eaves storage cupboards to both rooms. Externally, this exceptional home further benefits from a private front garden, allocated parking for two vehicles, additional visitor parking, and a large communal garden for residents to enjoy during the summer months.
