Description

Quaint yet spacious, this charming three-bedroom barn conversion offers an abundance of character and versatile accommodation, featuring four reception rooms and three bathrooms. Nestled within mature gardens and complemented by a private courtyard providing off-road parking, this delightful home has remained in the same ownership since its original conversion. Brimming with attractive period features throughout and benefiting from oil-fired central heating, the property is offered with no onward chain, presenting an excellent opportunity for those seeking a unique countryside home. Additionally, by separate negotiation, a parcel of land is available for purchase, offering the potential to construct a garage, subject to any necessary consents.

Enter through the courtyard, which provides ample off-road parking, into the impressive 24ft entrance hall.

Off the hall, you'll find a convenient shower room. The ground floor also offers three charming 13ft reception rooms, each featuring characterful beams, multi-fuel stoves, and pleasant outlooks. One of them also provides access to a useful cellar room, ideal for storage or even use as another versatile room.

The rear lounge is a spacious 21ft, boasting stone flag flooring, a pine-clad beamed ceiling, and a stable door that leads out to the garden.

The heart of the home is the 25ft farmhouse kitchen diner, beautifully fitted with cream units, space for appliances, and maple-style flooring, all highlighted by exposed beams. Space for a sizeable dining suite, ideal for families and entertaining.

A striking 'Douglas Fir' staircase leads to the upper floors, where a 14ft landing provides access to three double bedrooms. The master bedroom includes an en suite, and there’s a separate four-piece family bathroom.

Externally, the property features delightful gardens with patios, a lawn, a pond, and stunning views that enhance the charm of this unique home.
