The barn was converted by the seller in 2000 and provides characterful accommodation displaying a wealth of period features with numerous exposed timbers and beams as well as oak doors & window frames. The attached floorplans show the internal layout and dimensions on the ground and first floors.

A private gravel drive runs between River Hall & River Hall Coach House to the barn and the adjoining oast. There is a gate from here into a drive for parking and which gives access to the Double Garage and Storeroom above. The gardens are principally laid to lawn with mature tree and hedgerow boundaries together with a small open fronted garden store.
