'St Dolphs Barn' is as spacious dwelling with an extremely versatile accommodation configuration and offers a contemporary style of living with so many opportunities.


The Barn comprises a ground floor which boasts a reception hall with a view of the impressive galleried central staircase and an array of exposed beams with doors leading to the living rooms, open plan kitchen/dining room, study and family room/ground floor bedroom which hosts a bathroom.

On the first floor you'll find full height windows from the galleried landing which is a great place to sit, admire and watch the world go by. There is a view up to the second floor landing and vaulted ceiling with access to four double bedrooms, family shower room and en-suite facilities plus the concealed staircase leading to the second floor where you will find two spacious rooms which have been used as 'occasional bedrooms or hobby rooms. Its important to note that the first of these two rooms has an access onto a landing which leads to the other via a restricted head height door due to the ceiling beam configuration.

Whilst the Barn is separate to the annex, it may also be possible to create a connecting door and access from the Barn to the Annex (subject to any relevant consents or permissions).


Externally there is plenty of parking courtesy of a front driveway and at the rear is a detached garage with a pitched roof and an additional driveway. The enclosed sunny aspect rear garden offers a great area for entertaining with a large paved patio and lawned area.

The Annex does also have a small courtyard and decked terrace to the front which overlooks the pond and there is a small private garden at the rear.


Note:- The current vendors have configured the first floor to suit their requirements and have converted two of the first floor bedrooms and original bathroom to form an apartment style of living which provides a bedroom with en-suite, living room and kitchen. These alterations can be reversed to form the original two bedrooms and two bathroom layout with relative ease.


The Annex - This beautifully presented single storey annex is a huge attribute and offers three bedrooms, contemporary styled bathroom and open-plan living/dining/kitchen area with a dual aspect and its own private garden, making this a luxury annex if required or excellent investment opportunity as it is currently let by the owners to tenants who would love to stay.
