The Property
The Lawn Store is a very attractive stone-built barn with red pantile roof, converted just three years ago and incorporating the charm and features that come with an original period building, yet combining all the luxuries for an easy modern-day life. Wooden doors, purpose-made, hardwood, double-glazed, sliding sash windows and original exposed stone walls and wooden beams sit alongside high specification bathroom suites and kitchen, smart herringbone wood flooring and chrome light fittings and sockets.

The conversion of this property has been a full, complete renovation from a shell up to the impressive, unique and bespoke home it is today. It was a real labour of love for the current owners, with meticulous care and attention taken to build a tailor-made, special house, one that incorporates extensive insulation values that outperform Building Regulations. The attractive, clean stonework of the building and the pristine approach to the property give The Lawn Store excellent kerb appeal and this high level of thought and presentation continues inside.

The entrance into the reception hall, through the glass door and windows in the original barn opening in exposed stone walls is stunning. The space is sizeable and could easily be a dining room or further sitting area. The bespoke staircase, made on site, leads up to the first floor, with a spacious storage cupboard beneath.

Off to the right is the sitting room; a lovely light and airy room with windows on two sides, exposed wooden ceiling beams and a wood paneled alcoves beside an inglenook fireplace with wood burner and impressive timber lintel above.

To the left of the reception hall, a door leads through into the kitchen/dining room. The Neptune kitchen is a delightful modern farmhouse kitchen with recessed energy efficient electric AGA oven and Belfast sink alongside contemporary fitted units, integrated dishwasher and space for a large American style fridge/freezer. There is ample space for a dining table and chairs plus a family area with sofa and TV, and the promontory kitchen bench provides breakfast bar seating as well.

Leading off the kitchen is a very useful utility room/pantry with a further sink, plumbing for a washing machine and amazing storage; shelves stretching up to the ceiling. Also accessed from the kitchen is a boot room and cloakroom with wonderful built-in benches, hooks and an abundance of storage options.

Through the boot room is a further room with smart en-suite shower room, which the current owners have set up as a study, but which could also be a downstairs bedroom, a home gym or a play room. An excellent storage space area can also be accessed from this room. Separate access to outside via the boot room makes this further room self-contained and would make an ideal annexe for guests, family members who like their own space or maybe even to let out.

To the first floor are four spacious and tastefully decorated bedrooms, two of which have built-in wardrobes, and are served by the family bathroom with fantastic walk-in shower and Neptune oak vanity unit. The principal bedroom is a calm and warm room in muted tones with a vaulted ceiling with exposed timbers and a smart en-suite with bath and shower above. The principal bedroom also boasts a large walk-in wardrobe.

Externally
An electrically operated gated entrance opens onto a very well-kept tarmacadam and granite cobbled driveway, offering parking for a good many vehicles. A big feature of this property is the industrial-size garage, currently set up as a workshop, with power and lighting, plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer, and a separate WC and sink to the rear. This garage is large enough to house a car collection or potentially operate as a business, offering mechanical work, for example.

A lawn and a patio to the front of the house offer an excellent low-maintenance garden and a perfect place to sit outside and relax. A further paved area beside the door into the boot room is an ideal spot for a bench to enjoy the morning sun. The property and garden are tucked away in a private and secluded spot.
