Property description

A detached five bedroom barn conversion with three bathrooms, three reception rooms, a one bedroom self-contained annexe, a south facing garden, gated off street parking and a double carport in a village location.

This single level barn was converted around 2004 and has a combined 3,477 sq. ft. of accommodation including the carport and annexe. There is an entrance hall, two cloakrooms, an office/study area and an open plan kitchen/dining room. The main sitting room is 26 ft. long and there is a family room that could be a sixth bedroom. There are five bedrooms, two en suite shower rooms and a family bathroom. The self-contained annexe comprises a double bedroom, a bathroom, a kitchen and a sitting room, with the potential to create a rental income. The barn benefits from solar panels and an air source heat pump, resulting in low electricity running costs. An oil tank services an alternative method of heating. Internal features include pitched ceilings and exposed beams. Accessed via iron gates with gravel driveway parking for up to six cars and a double carport. The gardens are enclosed, south facing, mainly laid to lawn with flower and shrub borders and with a patio for entertaining.

Kitchen/dining room and reception rooms

The kitchen has tiled flooring and a range of Shaker style units with contrasting worksurfaces and a one-and-a-half ceramic sink unit. Included is an integrated dishwasher and there is space for a range cooker, a fridge/freezer and room for a dining table seating up to eight people. With two windows and a glazed door to the front, the kitchen/dining room is open plan to a 26 ft. sitting room with wooden flooring. Both rooms have vaulted ceilings with exposed beams. From the hallway there is an office/study area and a separate family room which could be used as a sixth bedroom.

Bedrooms and Bathrooms

Mainly arranged along the west wing and most with windows looking over the garden lawn, are five bedrooms. Two bedrooms have three piece en suite shower rooms and all have pitched higher ceilings. The nature of the accommodation is flexible; two bedrooms are currently used as offices and the family room could be used as a sixth bedroom. Additionally, there are two cloakrooms and a three piece family bathroom.

Self Contained Annexe

With its own personal entrance, a fenced garden and allocated its own council tax band, the annexe is suitable for multi-generational living or could be used to provide an additional rental income. It includes a sitting room, a kitchen, a double bedroom, and a three piece bathroom.
