A true gem, Old Oak Barn offers a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life. Believed to have Victorian origins, it has been sensitively converted and enhanced over time. Now a practical and stylishly presented country home, offering a unique blend of historic charm coupled with modern convenience, the flexible accommodation gives ample space for a growing family or hosting guests. Originally part of the neighbouring farm, it is quietly located in a tranquil rural setting. Although the property enjoys peace and privacy it is by no means isolated, with other converted farm buildings housing neighbours nearby. Approached from the lane via an electrically operated gate, a shared drive (owned by Old Oak Barn) leads to a wide gravel parking and turning area to the side of the property. A gate and a further track leads to the paddock, which has a field shelter with water connected and to the detached barn. From the drive a path leads to the main entrance, an open, glazed atrium with doors either side, also giving access to the formal gardens. Inside, from the atrium, the well fitted kitchen/breakfast room has a range of painted cabinets and a central island, all of which have Corian work tops. Integrated appliances include an electric rangemaster oven with induction hob, a fridge/freezer and a dishwasher. From the kitchen, the dining/sitting room is an airy spacious room with vaulted ceiling and, a wealth of exposed beams. A brick fireplace houses a wood burning stove and there are two sets of French doors into the main garden, ideal for entertaining. The drawing room also features a wood burning stove and doors out to each side of the property onto the terraces and gardens. From the drawing room, a short flight of stairs lead down to the guest room with en-suite shower room, a double bedroom and the family bathroom. Upstairs, the galleried landing looks over the drawing room and leads to two further bedrooms, a double and the principal bedroom, which has a vaulted ceiling and large en- suite bathroom. The flexible layout continues on the ground floor, as there is a potential two storey annexe, linked to the main house by the atrium. Formally a garage, the space was insulated and is currently utilised as a large double bedroom and a sitting/study room. Adjacent to this is the utility room and a shower room with W.C. Ideal as a ‘granny/teen’ suite, the area could also be used as a work space. Outside, from the drive, gated paths lead around each side of the barn, with a paved courtyard on one side of the property and the main garden on the other. Predominately laid to lawn, the garden is enclosed by walls and hedging and has attractively planted borders. There are raised beds for vegetables . A terrace spans the rear of the barn and along with other seating areas, summer house, and a small ‘secret’ garden, offers numerous al-fresco areas in which to relax and entertain. A useful amenity, the detached barn, has a large store room, external shower room and a studio. Currently used as a wellness retreat, there is a shepherds hut on site which is available to purchase by separate negotiation.Old Oak Barn is situated in an idyllic rural location, surrounded by local farmland and Greenbelt countryside.
