5 bedroom detached house for sale

Striking Oak-Clad contemporary Barn with spectacular views over open countryside and its 3 acre paddock.

Description

Vale View Barn is a striking, detached, oak-clad barn set in a peaceful and picturesque countryside location. Built to an exceptional standard, the property offers approximately 3,370 square feet of bright, spacious, and versatile accommodation arranged over two floors. Most rooms enjoy far-reaching views across the vineyard and the surrounding rolling countryside.

The property is approached via a quiet country lane, leading to a generous gravelled parking and turning area. This, in turn, provides access to a triple carport, which includes two open bays and an enclosed single garage. A recessed entrance porch welcomes you into the home, opening into a spacious hallway with a stone floor, a cloakroom, and a feature staircase rising to the first floor. From the hallway, glass doors lead into the heart of the home: an expansive open-plan living space that combines the kitchen, dining, and sitting areas. This impressive room features a high-quality fitted kitchen with a range-style cooker, a large central island, and ample space for dining and enjoying the views. Sliding patio doors lead out onto the terrace. The lounge area is enhanced by elegant stone flooring, a feature wood-burning stove, and additional sliding patio doors that allow natural light to flood the room.

Also on the ground floor is a practical utility room, along with an inner hallway that leads to a guest bedroom with en suite shower room, two further rooms that can serve as additional bedrooms or reception spaces, and a well-appointed family bath and shower room.

Upstairs, a mezzanine landing provides access to the principal bedroom, which benefits from fitted wardrobes and a stylish en suite shower room. A second guest bedroom also features its own en suite shower room. In addition, there is a large walk-in loft and storage area, as well as a mezzanine office or study space that overlooks the main living area below, adding a sense of openness and architectural interest.

Gardens and Grounds

The gardens have been thoughtfully landscaped to complement the rural setting and sweep around the property. The front garden is designed for ease of maintenance, while the rear garden features a patio area directly off the house, with steps leading up to a raised terrace and lawn. From here, the views stretch across the neighbouring vineyard and the open countryside beyond, offering a truly idyllic backdrop for outdoor living and entertaining.

There is the added benefit of a paddock amounting to about three acres to the front of the property, protecting the views down the valley.
