5 bedroom detached house for sale

An extremely spacious two storey barn conversion with vaulted ceiling and exposed framework throughout the first floor and double garage extending to over 3,500 sq ft standing in about a third of an acre with south facing garden with an open rural view.

The Barn is set to the rear of a small courtyard development in the heart of the village, offering privacy and security while being tucked away from the road. The front of the property faces north and provides parking and access, allowing the majority of the third of an acre plot at the rear where it enjoys a delightful southerly aspect, excellent privacy and attractive views over adjoining meadows. Constructed with timber clad elevations above exposed brick and flint plinths beneath a slate roof, the property features large windows that allow in excellent natural light. Extending to an impressive 3,285 sq ft (3,594 sq ft including the attached double garage), the versatile accommodation centres around a spacious reception and dining hall with full height glazing to both front and rear, a breakfast room leading to a large farmhouse style kitchen and a separate utility room which links to the garage. A separate ground floor wing contains three double bedrooms and a family bathroom, with potential to create two bath/shower rooms if desired, while a cloakroom and large study, or potentially a fifth double bedroom, complete the ground floor. The first floor, with its high vaulted ceilings and exposed timber framework, is divided into two impressive spaces: a superb triple aspect drawing room with a striking apex window overlooking the garden and a substantial principal bedroom suite with sitting area and en suite bathroom. Now offering scope for updating, the property presents an excellent opportunity to be styled to a new owner's taste, complemented by a large south facing garden enjoying wonderful views over meadows and convenient access to Grateley mainline station for commuting or school travel.

The property is situated in the centre of the village which has a reputable primary school, church, village hall, restaurant, golf driving range and mainline railway station providing fast services to London Waterloo (75 minutes). Andover, approximately six miles away, offers a comprehensive range of shopping, educational and leisure facilities and also a mainline station. The Cathedral cities of Winchester and Salisbury, together with Basingstoke are all within 30 minutes’ drive, with the A303 and A34 close by allowing convenient access to London, the West Country, the South Coast and the Midlands.
