A fabulous five-bedroom stone-built detached property, which tastefully combines authentic architectural period features with a striking modern extension and stunning contemporary interior design. The highly versatile accommodation, which was formerly the village school in Barrasford, is centred around an inspired double height, open-plan living and dining space. The generous proportions continue through to the breakfasting kitchen, garden room and five double bedrooms. The architect designed renovations, extension and remodelling were all undertaken in 2018 and the overall detail and finishes are exceptional throughout. Externally, there is a sweeping gravelled drive and substantial space for multiple vehicle parking. The private lawned grounds extend to around one-acre and include several 'pocket' gardens and strategic seating areas to capture the scenic views. In addition, there are a variety of established trees and shrubs and two useful outhouse/storage facilities. Set just outside the village, the position has a pleasant rural feel and enjoys a fantastic outlook over the surrounding countryside. The location is also well placed for neighbouring amenities, schools, and transport links. Viewings are highly recommended to fully appreciated this attractive and unique offering.

The current owners have already undertaken preliminary pre-planning proposal discussions to establish viability.
