Description
The Main House - The Old Barn is a significant barn conversion which has been sensitively converted in recent years into a superb, character-filled family home with over 3894 sq. ft. of living accommodation, ideally suited to both modern family living, entertaining and working from home. Arranged over 2 floors and immaculately presented throughout with stunning architectural features. At the heart of the home, there is an incredible lounge with vaulted beamed ceiling, a large modern and contemporary kitchen with a large walk-in pantry, dining room, utility room, WC and just off the kitchen there is a large studio/home office, kitchenette (although with sufficient wiring and plumbing for a full kitchen) and shower room that could easily be converted into a separate annex or granny flat if required. On the first floor there are two large bedrooms, both with ensuite bathrooms with the master bedroom being 11m long and having a dressing area. Accessed externally yet attached to the main house there is home office situated over two floors with its own shower room & WC. This again could easily be used as ancillary accommodation/home office or perhaps as an income potential, subject to the relevant planning consent.
Equestrian Interest - This home is perfect for those looking for an equestrian property with an Indoor Arena with a mixed sand and fibre surface, housed within a 9400sq.ft.

There is a stable W.C and ample space for the creation of feed and tack stores. In addition to the wonderful indoor facilities, there are around over 3 acres of grazing land with a field shelter, tack room and water supply to two outside automatic water feeding troughs. This area would also be ideal for those looking for a large storage facility for a variety of uses.
Silage Clamp - Sitting to the rear of the site is a former walled Silage Clamp approximately 40 x16m, ideal for storage and possible addition of more stables or development potential. Attached to the front side of this is a large greenhouse, potting shed, 2 allotments with raised beds in a mesh tunnel and dog/chicken run to the rear which may have further flexible options.
