Whistlers Barn is a substantial and impressive family home in the heart of this highly sought after village. Dating back to the 1800s, the property beautifully blends its rich period heritage with sophisticated contemporary enhancements, all nestled within secluded and mature walled gardens.

The kitchen is equipped to an exceptional standard, with a gas Aga paired with an electric companion unit, a fridge freezer and a central island. An adjoining utility/boot room provides additional practicality. From the kitchen/dining area, the space continues into the stylish drawing room, featuring a vaulted ceiling with exposed A frame beams, a York stone fireplace and full height glazing that opens onto the south facing terrace and gardens. Beyond the drawing room lies a double bedroom and separate shower room.

The bespoke staircase, with mood lighting, leads to both the principal and guest suites. The principal bedroom enjoys split level oak flooring, beautiful views across the walled gardens, and an adjoining dressing area and spacious en-suite. The guest bedroom, accessed across the staircase gallery, features oak flooring, fitted cupboards and its own en-suite.

From the reception hall, the west wing offers generous and highly adaptable living space.
