The barn was converted in 2010, it was transformed from part of a Grade II listed farm into a comfortable family home.

The property offers great modern family living space with primarily lateral accommodation. The current owner was the director of joinery company so there is bespoke carpentry throughout house, including the kitchen.

There is a spacious open plan kitchen/dining room with central island, granite countertops, and hand-built oak units. There is an oil fired AGA, underfloor heating and French doors which open out to the courtyard. To the right of this room is the utility room and cloakroom.

Beyond this is the family room, with a beautiful cast iron spiral staircase leading up to the office/studio, which is situated on the first floor. There is also separate access via steps at the front of the barn which means that this versatile room can be used independently.

From here is the dual aspect living room, with French doors leading to the courtyard and a door to the garden.

There is then the principal bedroom with en suite wet room, three spacious double bedrooms with views of the private courtyard through arched windows; and the family bathroom with a large cast iron bath.

The property benefits from a good selection of outbuildings comprising boot/laundry room with built in cupboards and hidden compartment, potting shed, stone store, garage and a workshop.

The spacious workshop with lean to area and store and the garage both benefit from full planning permission (2018/2861/FUL) which is in perpetuity, for a detached dwelling and ancillary office/studio. The proposed plans comprise office/studio with shower room, open plan kitchen/dining/living room, two double bedrooms, bathroom, log store and storage room. Both of which would be fantastic additions to the property!

The property is approached over a cattle grid onto a long private driveway up to the barn, where there is plentiful parking for a number of vehicles.

There is a large entertaining paved courtyard to the rear of the barn, and lawns to the front of the barn.

Beyond the gardens to the left hand side of the driveway is a paddock with vehicular access. There is also a further 9.59 acres to the left hand side of the driveway which is available by separate negotiation but not independently to Lot 1. This field is under a reforestation project and there is an agreement with the forestry funding body that will support the growth of the forest.

Lot 1 In all approximately 2.42 acres
Lot 2 In all approximately 9.59 acres, available by separate negotiation
EPC: C.

Internet service: EE, with a 4G router providing a consistent upload/download speed of
