Property description
A modern four bedroom barn conversion with three bathrooms, a home office/gym and a separate double garage set in a plot of approximately 0.66 acres.
Dating from 1667, the barns were expertly converted in 2016 to a very high specification, including bespoke staircases and engineered oak floors. There is underfloor heating on the ground floor with Nest thermostats throughout and wired speakers in the main rooms. There are TV and BT/data points, with a meshed WiFi network across the entire property, hardwired ethernet to the home office/gym, and Nest cameras covering the grounds. The open plan kitchen/sitting/dining room spans 15.2m in length and boasts 7.2m vaulted ceilings, as well as oak beams, high-level windows and bifold doors to the rear garden. The ground floor also has a utility room, bedroom and bathroom. The split first floor comprises a large (6.7m long) mezzanine area (currently used as a formal lounge), 3 further bedrooms (2 doubles and the principal suite) and 2 bathrooms. The grounds have been beautifully landscaped and there is a sweeping lawn (62m in length) alongside the drive, featuring a 30m2 home office/gym.
Ground Floor
The Tewkesbury Shaker-style kitchen has quartz worktops and a double Belfast sink. Integrated Neff appliances include an induction hob, twin hide-and-slide ovens, dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer. There is also a Samsung freestanding American-style fridge/freezer and separate wine cooler. There is an engineered oak floor throughout the ground level, as well as a log burner and 350-year-old exposed oak beams.
First Floor
This includes the large principal bedroom, en suite shower room, a family bathroom and two double bedrooms (currently used as children’s bedrooms). All rooms have a central ceiling height of 4m and exposed oak beams throughout. The bathrooms have floor-to-ceiling Porcelanosa tiling and integrated wired speakers. There are Roper Rhodes taps, Diverge sanitaryware, heated towel rails and shaver points. The principal en suite has a fully-tiled walk-in shower. This floor also provides access to a large, fully-boarded loft area, with retractable ladder and safety bannisters, providing 42m2 of storage.
Outside
An electric gate opens to a sweeping driveway, providing parking for 8 cars in addition to a separate double garage. The garage has 30m2 of overhead rafter storage, as well as power and Gliderol electric doors. The front garden is laid to lawn with hedges and several mature trees. The south-west-facing rear garden is landscaped with mature beds, a water feature and a large outdoor fireplace, set on a paved seating area within a festoon-lit pergola. A separate uplit deck and pergola houses a fully-serviced Jacuzzi (included in the sale). The centre is laid to lawn, with a further paved terrace adjacent to the barn.
Situation and Schooling
The property is about 3 miles from Ickleford which has a shop/general store, a public house and primary school. The market town of Hitchin, 4 miles, provides a wider range of shopping and recreational facilities. There are also three secondary schools which are all rated Good or Outstanding. The nearest mainline station at Hitchin provides trains to Kings Cross and Cambridge. Nearby Lower Stondon also provides local shopping facilities, pubs and a golf club.
