The spaces are flooded with natural light from multiple windows and glass doors to the front and rear aspects and consists of a generous dining room with oak laminate flooring and a beautiful brick feature fireplace with a wood mantle and slate hearth, and a cosy TV Snug room. The areas are divided by a feature log burner creating a central focal point from all angles of the living areas.
The Heart of the Home
The recently renovated kitchen oozes a contemporary vision and blends beautifully with the vaulted ceiling and exposed beams of the original barn.
The quartz worktops of the central island reflect the light from the abundance of floor to ceiling windows and sliding glass patio doors making the area sparkle and shine. There are plenty of eye and base level cupboards and drawers concealing a selection of integrated appliances. These include a modern American fridge freezer set within useful larder cupboards, a large Belling range gas cooker with six rings and a large wok ring with extractor fan above, and an integrated Caple microwave.

Bedroom two is situated at the opposite side of the property to the master suite and flows from the kitchen. This quirky space is light and bright with windows looking out onto the front courtyard area and benefits from a shower unit and a small wash basin plus a separate WC.

Bedroom four also features a beautiful, vaulted ceiling with a large window allowing the room to be filled with natural light. This room benefits from a recently refurbished ensuite shower room comprising of a low flush WC, a vanity unit with wash basin and a single tap, and a large double shower with both a waterfall and separate handheld shower attachment.
