DESCRIPTION
Meadow Barn sits at the front of a small enclave of just 3 barns converted into dwellings in 2004, formerly the outbuildings serving Gawcott Farm. The location is on the eastern tip of the village and Meadow Barn enjoys a beautiful outlook over its gardens and orchard.

The accommodation is on one level and has bright rooms with lots of natural light that boast a wealth of character including vaulted ceilings and impressive exposed roof beams and trusses. Across the courtyard is the annexe or garden room or office, self-contained with air conditioning and heating and comprising an open plan area with a kitchenette and a separate shower room.

As you enter the main barn across the hall is the third bedroom that has built in wardrobes along one wall. On the right is a kitchen/dining room with quality cream units incorporating hi spec drawer inlays and shelving, the units complimented by black granite worktops and backstands. There is an integrated fridge and freezer, and a dishwasher, and remaining is a Smeg cooking range of two ovens, a warming compartment, and six burner gas hob. Above that is an extraction hood. The impressive sitting room has a triple aspect and floorboards and centrally positioned stands a contemporary cast iron woodburning stove. From the back hall are two double bedrooms, each with doors to outside, the main bedroom boasting an excellent expanse of mirrored wardrobes and a stylish ensuite shower room. In between the bedrooms is the family bathroom, again nicely equipped with a jacuzzi bath and independent shower cubicle.

OUTSIDE
Through the five bar gate is a gravelled yard where parking is provided for half a dozen vehicles and the drive continues on up to tall wooden gates, beyond which is the old stable block and tack room. Opposite the barn is the annexe that could also be an office and have its own garden, currently a charming part walled and part screened lawn and decked terrace.


Meadow Barn benefits from a south facing formal garden, mainly lawned with a deep planted flower and shrub bed and a greenhouse. A piece has been hived off by post and rail fencing, intended as a vegetable patch. Abutting the garden lies a delightful orchard featuring dozens of various fruit trees, the current owners invite the villagers to the orchard once a year to help themselves to the yield. By the old stable block is parking for a lorry or horsebox, the building had two stables and a tack room and is now opened up internally into one room.

RIGHTS OF WAY There are footpaths and a bridleway that pass over the orchard and side of the stables providing direct access to some great walks and riding.
