4 bedroom semi-detached house for sale

A WELL PRESENTED PERIOD BARN CONVERSION LYING ON THE EDGE OF THIS POPULAR VILLAGE WITH ATTRACTIVE SOUTH FACING WALLED GARDEN

Formerly part of a range of traditional buildings belonging to Top Farm, number 3 was converted by local developer Brian Yates in 1999 and forms part of a small select development of four properties. Whilst attached to another unconverted barn on its western gable end, it effectively feels detached and is approached off the lane via a gravel drive on the title deeds of number 3, over which two other barns have the right of access.

The barn enjoys a light and airy feel offering flexible accommodation over two floors with all principal rooms benefiting from a southerly aspect with views over the attractive rear walled garden. A viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate its location and all that it has to offer.

An oak front door with frosted side lights opens into the reception hall with steps down to the main hall running along the front of the barn with all ground floor rooms accessed off. At the far end of the hall is the vaulted sitting room enjoying a double aspect with French doors opening onto paved rear terrace and garden. The structural timbers are exposed as is the polished oak floor and at the far end is a stone fireplace housing a gas fire but with flue, should one want to install a wood burner.

Running back towards the reception hall is the study with loft access and dining room which enjoys a view across the Nene Valley. The kitchen benefits from bespoke white painted wooden base and eye level units with black granite worktops. Cooking facilities are provided for by stainless SMEG range cooker with six ring gas hob and NEFF combination oven/microwave. To the side of the enamel butler sink is a NEFF dishwasher and lying beyond is the utility room with fitted units, plumbing for washing machine and a run of full height cupboards providing excellent storage facilities.

At the eastern end of the barn is another flexible room currently utilised as a bedroom with fitted wooden book shelving and adjoining is a shower room which doubles up as a cloakroom.

FIRST FLOOR

The wooden staircase gently rises to a part galleried landing with all three double bedrooms radiating off. The principal bedroom benefits from a fitted wardrobe and a fully tiled en suite shower room. Bedrooms two and three also have fitted wardrobes and are served by white tiled bathroom with wall mounted shower above the bath with glazed side screen.

OUTSIDE

The barn has an attractive approach over its own gravelled drive which gently falls down to the property and provides access to the detached double garage with further dedicated parking to the southern side.

Running along the front of the barn is an area of lawn with paved steps leading down to the front door.

The attractive south facing walled rear garden is accessed from the barn and in the far corner, it enjoys pedestrian right of access across a path belonging to Barn 2 that leads down to the High Street.

The garden has been hard landscaped with strategic paved seating and dining areas. An original brick trough has been retained as a water feature and has pride of place in the centre of the main lawn which is edged by mature herbaceous borders providing a profusion of colour in the summer months. In the far corner sits a wooden garden shed and there is a further paved storage area.
