This converted former barn forms part of a historic farm, having been sympathetically reinvented into stylish dwellings. A shared drive leads to the barn, which has an area of hardstanding to the front and a private entrance door leading into a welcoming hallway. Once inside, you’ll find space to hang coats and leave muddy boots, to the left in the heart of the property a stylish kitchen/diner, with a large dining table and a view of the beautifully landscaped garden and one aspect of the dual-sided wood burner. The U-shaped and newly fitted kitchen has all you need to create delicious meals. Leading on from this room is the lounge, which has a striking vaulted ceiling that really showcases the heritage of the building, as well as a view of the wood burner, Smart TV, and doors to the garden. At the other end of the ground floor is the first of three individually beautiful designed bedrooms, with twin beds that can be made into a super-king on request and en-suite shower room with WC. Completing the ground floor is a separate WC, useful utility room with a washer/dryer. Heading up the oak staircase to the first floor, you’ll pass a spacious desk space, great for attending to the odd email, before coming to the two bedrooms set into the eaves of the building. First is a super-king-size which can be made up into twins on request, with an en-suite bathroom. The second bedroom has a super-king size bed and an en-suite shower room. These rooms have original roof timbers and sloping ceilings in some areas, adding to the character and charm of the property. All the bedrooms have a Smart TV, and the beds are dressed in White Company linens.


Heading outside via the lounge, you can enjoy the professionally landscaped gardens, featuring borders filled with flowering plants and a patio with furniture, ideal for a sundowner or your morning coffee. There is ample parking in front of the property along with EV charging.
