5 bedroom barn conversion for sale

Renovated in 2002 and updated again in 2019, The Old Barn is a spacious detached barn offering in excess of 4000 square feet of living accommodation. Deceptive in size for a barn, the property enjoys generous bedrooms on the first floor, a family bathroom and three en suites.

The property opens via a large front door with
glazed and frosted side panels, to the bright
and airy vaulted reception hall with full height
windows and French doors overlooking the
garden. The large double fronted fireplace and
wood burner is a beautiful feature of the space,
opening on one side to the reception hall and on
the other to the lounge creating a cosier space
which also benefits from French doors to the
rear garden. This is complemented by the sleek
and modern kitchen/diner, offering luxury and
convenience in tandem with the unique features
of a converted barn. The kitchen offers bi-fold
doors onto the front walled garden and patio
space. The single story extension houses the
sizable utility room and fully air-conditioned
gym with shower room.

The first floor is accessed by a staircase leading
to a stunning galleried balcony overlooking the
reception hall. Along the balcony is the spacious
principal bedroom boasting a Juliet balcony
and vaulted ceiling, en suite and solid oak fitted
wardrobes. Four additional bedrooms, two with
en suites, and a family bathroom make up the
accommodation connected by a corridor. The
double garage has been converted to offer
an air conditioned office with skylight on the
second level.

A beautifully landscaped front driveway leads
on one side to a small brick pond and well
paved access to the front door, and to the other
the converted double garage sits facing the
property, above which sits a first floor study.

A curved wall wraps around the far side of
the drive to create a secluded walled garden
sheltered by mature trees with a patio area
servicing the kitchen/diner via bi-fold doors.

The garden to the rear extends with far reaching
views across open countryside. The patio area
offers a great external entertain space which
runs the length of the property.
