4 bedroom barn conversion for sale

This substantial period property has been newly created following a skilful conversion of a beautiful, Grade II Listed barn. The end result is a fabulous and highly versatile family home with a high-quality, contemporary finish which sits comfortably alongside the intrinsic character of this 200-year-old barn.

The property is located in the village of East Lutton, which is part of the area currently under consideration for the new Yorkshire Wolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, a landscape celebrated in a series of paintings by David Hockney.

Considerable efforts have been made to create an energy efficient home, packed with insulation, high performance double-glazed windows, LED lighting and air-source central heating, which is underfloor throughout the ground floor.

East Barn’s stylish interior is complemented by solid oak internal doors, porcelain tile and engineered oak flooring downstairs and to all bathrooms, and good quality carpets upstairs. The heart of the home is undoubtedly the huge, open-plan living space which is flooded with light and features a stylish kitchen at one end with central island, integrated appliances, quartz work surfaces and double sink. At the opposite end an 5kw log burner creates a homely feel and an oak staircase with glass balustrade zones the living space from the kitchen.

The layout has been designed in such a way that the family room, ground floor bedroom and shower room, which sit within the single storey wing, could be easily adapted to provide self-contained accommodation for guests, a dependent relative or older children. The overall accommodation totals well over 2,800sq.ft (excluding the store room, garage and workshop).

In brief, the accommodation comprises entrance hall, guest cloakroom, open-plan kitchen/dining/living space, utility room, family room, ground floor double bedroom and shower room. To the first floor an impressive galleried landing gives access to three further double bedrooms, two of which have en-suite shower rooms, and a house bathroom.

The property is set within professionally landscaped grounds, offering a good level of privacy, with gardens to both the front and rear, made up of lawn, stone flagged terraces, shrub borders. Screened from the village street by a brick wall, East Barn is approached via metal gates, which open onto a good-sized gravelled parking area with access to the 20ft garage and workshop and an additional store room. There is the usual exterior lighting, power points, EV charging point and outside taps.

The peaceful village of East Lutton lies along the Great Wold Valley that runs between the market towns of Malton and Driffield. Set within the rolling countryside of the Yorkshire Wolds, the villages of this valley often join together for community events and celebrations. Malton is located approximately 11 miles to the west and provides an excellent range of local facilities, along with a railway station with hourly services to the mainline station of York, from where London can be reached in less than 2 hours. Driffield, approximately 10 miles south-east, is often referred to as the Capital of the Wolds and has a similar offering. Primary schooling is available in the neighbouring village of West Lutton, and the stunning scenery of the Heritage coast is a short drive away, with Scarborough some 16 miles north east.
