Description
A delightful converted barn, brimming with character and ideally set in a tucked away, semi- rural location. Originally converted about 30 years ago, Armour Barn now offers excellent well-proportioned accommodation alongside delightful gardens and a paddock. Enjoying an idyllic position in the beautiful hamlet of Little Meadle, Armour Barn enjoys the best of both worlds being just three and a half miles from Princes Risborough station with fast trains to London, Marylebone.
The front door opens into the reception hall, giving access to a guest cloakroom and quietly situated study. The main sitting room is an impressive space, with an array of exposed beams, a magnificent inglenook fireplace and two sets of casement doors beautifully framing the surrounding gardens. Double doors lead through to the kitchen/breakfast/dining room, an open plan space and perfect for family life. The kitchen is well equipped with an extensive range of units, a mix of granite and wood worktops and integrated appliances. A large island incorporates further storage and breakfast bar seating. Oak flooring runs throughout, and French doors in the dining area open directly to the garden. Beyond the kitchen is a superb boot room, complete with built-in storage and ample room for coats, shoes and muddy dogs. Just off here is a fully fitted utility room.
All the bedrooms on the first floor are full of character with exposed beams throughout. The principal bedroom enjoys lovely far reaching views and enjoys a dressing area and en suite bath/shower room. There are three further double bedrooms served by a family bathroom and an additional shower room. In addition and accessed from the principal bedroom, is a further bedroom and en suite shower room, with steps leading down to the garage. This area offers excellent flexibility of use and could be perfect as a guest suite/studio or adapted as a potential annexe, subject to the usual consents.
The property is approached via a long shared driveway, leading to a private driveway with parking for several vehicles and the double garage. The gardens are particularly attractive, with manicured lawns bordered by mature, well-stocked beds and a paved terrace for outdoor entertaining. Pathways meander through the garden leading to a small orchard with apple, pear and plum trees. In addition is a separate paddock, about 1.44 acres accessed through a five bar gate beyond the front of the property.
