A delightful barn conversion with vaulted ceilings and flexible living spaces, occupying a glorious semi-rural, and convenient setting.
Description
North Barn is a beautiful, Grade II listed barn conversion, occupying a peaceful setting within the hamlet of Bacon End, 3.9 miles south of the market town of Great Dunmow. The barn, which was converted in 2005, provides extensive living space of approximately 3,260 sq ft, with exceptional character and versatility. There are four bedrooms plus a one bedroom ground floor annexe which can be separated or connected to the house, having its own independent access. One of the property’s key asset is its wonderful location adjoining a country lane, and overlooking the surrounding countryside.
The barn, which is being sold with no onward chain, is entered via a cosy and functional hall with a built-in coat cupboard. This leads to the main sitting room, with vaulted ceiling and tall windows providing a wealth of natural light. The room has been very stylishly zoned into a sitting area and snug, both which benefit from the dual-sided log burner. Beyond the main living area is the smart and fully fitted kitchen complete with gas range oven, Belfast sink and granite work tops. The kitchen is bright and boasts views on to the rear patio garden and terrace. The arrangement of the house is excellent - the rooms flow very nicely through to one another for ease of modern living. The TV and utility room are logically arranged off the kitchen, as is the flexible dining room and patio dining area outside. The utility/boot room also has access to the courtyard garden. On the other side of the house is an adjoining one bedroom annex with bathroom, ideal for multi-generational living. Again, this area is flexible in its use and is currently used as a study/cinema room. This bedroom on the ground floor is well proportioned and benefits from door access onto the courtyard.
Upstairs, there are four double bedrooms including two en suites and a further family bathroom. The eaves storage is exceptional and the main bedroom has built-in wardrobes, floor to ceiling. Bedroom two is fitted with air conditioning. All four double bedrooms have views onto the rear garden which creates a relaxing and peaceful feel.
Outside
The property benefits from two courtyards - for those who prefer grass lawns, the rear area could easily be converted back to lawn but is currently being used for parking. The low maintenance outdoor spaces have been meticulously managed and include delightful flower beds and areas to sit and relax. There are two entrances. The second entrance is accessed via smart electric gates.
Services
Oil-fired heating. Mains electricity. Private drainage treatment plant (compliant system).
