Bewerley, Harrogate, North Yorkshire

Stable Barn is a handsome stone-built family home, converted to a high standard in 2003 and offering more than 2,400 sq. ft. of flexible accommodation arranged over two floors. The property has been sensitively converted to combine modern amenities with character features including some exposed beams and a wealth of exposed wooden flooring. The accommodation is accessed through a feature arched glazed front door, converted from a former carriage door which fills the area with natural light, and flows from a welcoming double-height reception hall, with oak flooring to a useful cloakroom and through to a spacious sitting room with a feature LPG fire, a glazed door to the garden and double doors to a generous dining room, and a well-proportioned study which could be a useful 5th ground floor bedroom. The sitting room is an ideal spot to enjoy the long distant stunning views.

Completing the ground floor is an extensive L-shaped open plan kitchen/dining room which has been recently extended to create a fabulous family room by the current owners. The quality oak kitchen has a range of wall and base units and modern integrated appliances with the dining area providing ample space for a good-sized table and chairs, perfect for informal dining. From the dining area it flows into a large triple aspect, light-filled family room. Accessed also from the dining area is a useful fitted utility room providing additional storage and appliances.

On the first floor the galleried landing gives access to four double bedrooms, all with built-in storage and two with modern en suite shower rooms, and a modern family bathroom with bath, separate shower and quality Villeroy and Boch sanitary ware.
