Barn Conversion
Annexe secondary accommodation

Whempstead Barn is an exceptional Grade II listed conversion, dating back over 400 years, converted for residential use in 1995. Purchased in 2004, the property has been imaginatively transformed and extended into a stunning family home by its current owners. The property offers impressive and versatile accommodation throughout, with a wealth of period characteristic features, while benefiting from contemporary interior styling to provide an outstanding home suited to present-day lifestyles. Light floods the house, and the views over the surrounding countryside are magnificent. The kitchen/dining room with bi-folding doors leading to the south-facing terrace is of particular note, with a delightful adjoining sitting room with a study beyond. Formerly a dining hall, the reception hall featuring a 21ft high vaulted ceiling is a valuable, entertaining space with a striking custom made staircase. The property benefits from underfloor heating throughout.
A well-presented principal bedroom suite is situated on the ground floor with an opulent bathroom and a further bedroom suite. On the second floor, four further bedrooms enjoy beautiful rural views and two family bathrooms.

Studio, Garden and Grounds
The extensive terrace is positioned to the south and west of the house, providing the perfect opportunity to entertain with a substantial BBQ area. The garden is mainly laid to lawn and enjoys far reaching uninterrupted views with a large private courtyard to the rear of the house.

To the south of the property is a recently refurbished substantial studio, with a large living/office area on the first floor and a kitchen, sitting room and shower room on the ground floor.

Whempstead is a small hamlet set in beautiful countryside between the neighbouring towns of Ware and Hertford, approximately 5 miles away, with a comprehensive range of recreational and shopping facilities. Nearby Watton-at-Stone provides a good range of amenities, including a post office/village store, award-winning butchers, public houses and a mainline station with direct services to London Moorgate, or St. Pancras and Kings Cross via Stevenage. Ware and Hertford stations (approximately 6 miles) also give quick access into London Liverpool Street. There are excellent schools in the locality in both the state and private sector including Heath Mount (1 mile), St Edmund's (4 miles) and Haileybury (10 miles). (Distances are approximate).

The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
