The Great Barn is an impressive converted barn offering spacious and versatile accommodation in a charming rural setting. Approached via a shared private driveway leading to a paved courtyard, the property also benefits from a separate private drive to the rear, providing access to garaging, ample parking and a paddock.

The kitchen/breakfast room is fitted with a range of matching floor and wall units with beech worktops and a central island, with space for a dining table. It includes an oil-fired Esse double oven range cooker, hob, electric oven, built in appliances and a butler sink. The kitchen/dining room benefits from double doors which open out to the rear patio, garden and grounds beyond.
The two reception/living rooms both have fireplaces with electric wood-effect stoves serving as lovely focal points. The living room has double doors leading to the side patio where stunning views of uninterrupted countryside can be enjoyed.

The main bedroom is a particularly impressive room which benefits from a dressing room with built-in wardrobes and access to extensive storage under the eaves. The dressing room leads to an ensuite bathroom comprising of a shower, WC and wash hand basin.
