Property description

A modern four bedroom barn conversion with land and a detached self contained annexe

The original part of the property is former farm buildings which were built in circa 1860, and converted during the 1970s into single storey accommodation. The vendors purchased the property in 2018 and have undertaken a comprehensive programme of refurbishment and enlargement which included adding an extra wing, rewiring and replumbing throughout, replacing all the radiators and sanitaryware, installing a bespoke kitchen/breakfast room, and fitting double glazing throughout with some additional or enlarged windows to provide plenty of natural light. Some of the roof has also been replaced with new tiles and the insulation has been improved. The property has also been redecorated throughout which included treating all the exposed beams, new skirting boards, new architraves, new oak internal doors, designer wallpapers and matching blinds, and a new entrance door. Underfloor heating was installed in the kitchen/breakfast room and the bathroom and shower rooms.
