Nestled on the peaceful southern edge of the village and moments from the reservoir, Turks head Farm is an idyllic and exquisitely upgraded barn conversion, where heritage architecture meets cutting-edge sustainability. Originally an historic farmstead, the barn was first converted in the late 1990s and then further transformed in the early 2020’s by a local craftsman creating the distinguished home seen today.
In recent years, the current owners have undertaken a comprehensive and thoughtful programme of eco-led enhancements, placing sustainability at the heart of the property. With solar panels, a Tesla Powerwall, air-source heating, Residence 9 heritage windows, and extensive underfloor heating, this remarkable home offers exceptional energy efficiency while preserving the barn’s agricultural soul.
