A charming barn conversion home quietly situated in a popular village.

Description

Blackberry Barn is a charming barn conversion dating from around 1999. The property has been in the same family for over twenty years and offers flexible accommodation. In addition the current owners have planning permission (Wychavon District Council Ref: 17/02192/HP) for converting the double garage into another bedroom with en suite and extending the property to the rear, which may be ideal as an annexe.

The property sits off the village lane in a small cul de sac away from passing traffic. The accommodation lies over two floors with good ceiling heights and the principal rooms enjoy a lovely outlook over the rear gardens. An entrance hall runs along the majority of the length of the building, with two staircases up to the first floor. At one end of the ground floor is an internal door to the large garage (with permission to be converted). There is also a ground floor bedroom suite, ideal for visitors. The sitting room is a lovely and light room, with vaulted beamed ceiling, oak flooring, a large fireplace with fitted woodburner, double doors out to the garden and windows to three sides. The study/bedroom also enjoys an outlook over the garden, and the dining room has exposed brickwork and ceiling beams and oak flooring. The kitchen has a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and a gas fired Aga. In addition there is a fitted oven and hob and a stable type door to the rear garden, plus a utility room off. A couple of steps lead up to breakfast area with exposed beams and door out to the garden. The principal bedroom suite is situated up one staircase, offering a degree of privacy and occupying a large space with fitted cupboards and good sized bathroom. A second staircase leads to two further bedrooms and a bathroom.

The gardens are level and are of a good size. Currently mainly laid to lawns with terrace and seating areas positioned around the garden, and mature shrubs and trees. The gardens are particularly private and in total believed to extend to a third of an acre.
