Amongst the most individual of homes to hit the market this season, this inspired barn conversion boasts over 2,000 sq. ft. of imaginative and most impressive accommodation enjoying reams of natural light and the intelligent versatility to accompany the ever-changing demands of a modern family life. Set at the end of a quiet lane amongst rolling fields, the timeless and quintessential location houses what is now amongst the finest contemporary homes in the area – a rare and pleasing blend of bold architecture amongst traditional surroundings.

The drama of said architecture greets you immediately when entering the property; a double height vaulted ceiling adorns the dining area and leads, open-plan, to the equally impressive kitchen. A wealth of faultless cabinetry is complemented by the large island where contemporary lines have been paired with smooth curves and calming colour palette – yet another display of the fine balance achieved at Windle Farm Barn. To the other wing of the imposing family room is a spacious seating area enjoying a defined space of its own whilst still interacting with the rest of the receptions.

The central entrance hall is graced by the solid oak staircase with glazed balustrades ensuring an uninterrupted passage of light to every corner. Essential balance is achieved with two highly versatile ground floor rooms, one currently serving as a large study with direct access to the south facing sun terrace and another housing an en-suite bedroom, again with its own direct access to a west facing terrace and garden. A guest WC completes the ground floor. Both the ground floor and first floor have the benefit of underfloor heating courtesy of an air source heat pump.

The first floor is home to three further double bedrooms. The stunning principal suite showcases vaulted ceilings, exposed timbers, fitted wardrobes, Juliet balcony and an entirely glazed west facing gable ushering enchanting panoramic views of rolling countryside and fitted with luxury bespoke made electric blinds. The en-suite is every bit as luxurious as the main room with high end sanitary ware, fine finished and well-considered storage solutions. Elsewhere on the first floor, two further double bedrooms are well served by the central family bathroom, equally as luxurious as the principal en-suite.

The plot in which the property sits is just as noteworthy as the home itself. Wrapping around three quarters of the property and perfectly positioned to enjoy all day sunshine, the low maintenance garden is designed for enjoying and unwinding whilst soaking up calming views for as far as the eye can see. The sun terrace flanks the east, south and west elevations for a multitude of seating and outdoor dining options whilst the large driveway also houses the detached garage.
