Description
The Barn is a handsome Grade II listed detached barn, which has been refurbished by the current owners to a very high standard providing flexible family accommodation arranged over two floors.
Accommodation comprises a double aspect refitted kitchen/breakfast room with marble worktops and copper sink, breakfast bar, painted storage units including full height storage, a walk-in larder, two ovens and an induction hob. Light and airy reception hall and spacious triple aspect drawing room with wood burning stove and doors to the rear terrace.
Door leading to two further reception rooms currently used as a games room and sitting room, bathroom with contemporary sanitary ware and a downstairs bedroom. Benefitting from exterior doors, this area could provide separate annexe accommodation. There is a further snug/TV room, study and good-sized utility room and cloakroom.
Stairs lead from the hall to a lovely galleried landing off which are the bedrooms comprising principal bedroom with contemporary en suite and fitted wardrobes and three further double bedrooms, one en suite and a family bathroom.
The Barn is situated on a quiet, country lane in the sought-after village of Smarden. The property is approached through double electric gates leading to a gravel drive with parking for several cars and a double garage.
To the front of the barn is a lovely south-west facing slate terrace and decked areas perfect for al fresco entertaining and to the rear there is a second, secluded paved terrace with BBQ area. The Barn also benefits from a heated swimming pool, gym with cloakroom, level lawns with mature shrubs and trees, two paddocks and a vegetable garden - in all approximately 1.2 acres
