Handsome barn conversion in lovely countryside setting, perfectly positioned for those wanting a rural feel yet retain easy access to the town centre.

Description

Chapel Barn is a striking barn conversion set in a delightful semi-rural setting surrounded by open countryside and a handful of similar properties including the historic 12th-century Chapel belonging to Widmere Farm. The origins of the home are believed to date back to the 17th century with an abundance of character remaining such as high ceilings and exposed wood beams. These features are wonderfully complemented by a tasteful contemporary décor scheme and generous open plan living space. The versatile accommodation is presented to a very high standard with the lovely ceiling heights, wonderful modern finishes and large windows, making the property feel exceptionally light and bright. A particular highlight is the open plan kitchen/breakfast room which serves as the heart of the family home and offers a fabulous space for entertaining.

The total accommodation extends to over 3000 sq ft over two floors, with a flexible layout making it ideal for busy family life. The ground floor is accessed via a grand and impressive entrance hall leading through to a 29ft sitting room and the wonderful open plan kitchen/breakfast room that benefits from underfloor heating. Just off here there is also a handy adjacent utility room. On the first floor is the principal bedroom benefitting from a walk-in dressing space, three further good-size bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom with a freestanding bathtub and walk-in mixer shower. It is also worth noting that the property includes full Fibre broadband.

Outside
The property is situated in a peaceful cul de sac approached over a good-size gravel driveway providing off-street parking for several cars and access to an integral double garage. There is also an electric car charging point. To the rear is an attractive communal garden mostly laid to lawn with a private patio for outdoor dining.
