Barn
The property benefits a barn conversion of former wash rooms within the property restored with painstaking effort, hand crafted by a master craftsman offering a very large additional living space or could be a small annexe or home office. The barn is unique with old reclaimed oak timbers, glass wall at one end and atmospheric lighting. All the wood in the barn has its own unique story from original 300 year old timbers, an old church pew, filing cabinets from the war office and shelving made from the old school desks from the village school (they retain the original ink well holes and channels for pencils). The window cils are made from the original reclaimed soleplates of the barn. The barn is build to habitable standards with over 100mm of modern insulation, boarding and membranes, hidden behind waney edge cedar boarding. The barn has excellent lighting options, reclaimed Victorian pan tiles and steel gutters and downpipes. The barn has a mezzanine floor at one end which can be used for storage or an additional bedroom.

Double Garage
The garage is also build to an extremely high standard with thick insulation in the walls and roof. The garage is a good size with a spacious and insulated loft space offering significant storage. The garage matches the barn look adjacent with Victorian reclaimed pan tiles and waney edge cedar boarding.

Garden
Double rear gates offering vehicular access to the rear garden. Chicken coop area adjacent the oil tank for the heating system. The garden includes a variety of mature trees and shrubs as well as a reading hill, two wooden sheds (one including a large wood store) and an ornate pond with pumped flow and rockery. There are two iconic fir trees giving the cottage its name and a stunning fire pit nestled below one of them offering an iconic BBQ and hosting space.
