Northington Down, Alresford

An amazing conversion of a flint barn built in 1885 offering over 4,600 feet of versatile living space. Set in a lovely rural location a few miles north-west of Alresford on the edge of the beautiful Candover Valley, The Barn has a lovely southerly facing garden with mature planting and a high hedge that affords it a great deal of privacy and seclusion. The property is beautifully presented throughout, with character features, modern bathrooms, and a huge living room with a stunning vaulted ceiling.  

The accommodation is 'upside down' with the bedrooms on the ground floor and the living space upstairs. The barn is entered via a large glazed lobby, with access to two double bedrooms, one of which has an en-suite shower room, a further bedroom, family bathroom and utility room. Off the entrance hall, there is a large boot room, boiler room, and a long garage.

Stairs lead to the first floor and into the focal point of the property, the enormous living room with vaulted ceiling measuring 39 x 28 feet, which is used as a dining/sitting room. A balcony looks south over the garden, with steps down to a terrace seating area. The living space is open-plan to the fitted kitchen, which features a large walk-in larder, and a door to a study. At the other end of the living room, stairs lead down to the principal bedroom, which has an extensive range of fitted wardrobes, a dressing room and an ensuite bathroom. Stairs from the living room lead up to a galleried landing used as a library, the fourth bedroom and a shower room.  

The stunning garden enjoys a sunny, south-facing aspect. The garden has been landscaped to maximise the benefits of its sunny aspect, with varied planting of trees and shrub borders. There is a paved seating area and a garden pond, with the remainder of the garden laid to lawn. It is surrounded by a mature hedge that allows plenty of privacy and seclusion.
