A beautifully presented Grade 2 listed Barn Conversion with landscaped gardens and driveway parking positioned within this highly sought after village between Frome and Bath.
The accommodation throughout is very well proportioned, naturally light and successfully combines charming period features with contemporary open planned living.
On the ground floor there is a fabulous living/family/dining area which enjoys triple height ceilings, exposed beams, twin aspect windows and doors open onto the gardens. To one end is a cosy space with a wood burner taking centre stage. The middle part of the room provides an excellent entertaining area and to the far end of the room there is a versatile and multi-purpose space the current vendors use as a library. Off one of the library aisles is a well-appointed utility room and w.c.
The kitchen is modern and includes a range of wall and base units with integrated Neff appliances. Double doors spill onto the gardens, a perfect arrangement for Al-fresco dining in the summer months. There is also a ground floor bedroom or home office with another set of double doors onto the gardens and an en-suite bathroom.
The generous height of the building is well utilised throughout the house; the first of several mezzanines is off the entrance hall and accessed by a timber staircase. This space currently serves as a walk-in wardrobe but could provide comfortable additional sleeping space if required.
On the opposite side of the main barn up a second staircase is the master bedroom with en-suite shower room, and above this, access to a characterful space that our vendors have used as a peaceful yoga room.
OUTSIDE
To the side of the barn the driveway provides parking for three vehicles. External 3-pin socket, that can be used for EV charging.
To the far end of the garden is a large outbuilding which houses the oil tanks and offers excellent storage.
The gardens have been landscaped beautifully and make the perfect first impression when entering the barn.
Bursting with colour through the seasons, there are a number of seating areas, well stocked beds, lines of Lavender and Grapevines and Wisteria and Roses climb the stone walls framing the three doorways. A water feature reflects colour and light and the gardens enjoy a good degree of privacy.
