Description

A beautifully converted barn offering characterful accommodation arranged around a private courtyard in the sought-after village of Chilton Polden. The home features a spacious sitting room with a striking brick fireplace and wood-burning stove, a recently updated kitchen/breakfast room, and three versatile bedrooms. The main bedroom enjoys patio doors to the courtyard, while the family bathroom includes a roll-top bath and separate shower. Outside, a gated driveway leads to the enclosed courtyard with two detached outbuildings, ideal for a home office or studio. The property also offers scope for further garden development, creating a peaceful and private retreat.

Accommodation
At the front, a UPVC entrance door opens into the hallway, leading through to the kitchen. From here, ledge and brace doors provide access to the cloakroom, which includes a WC and wash hand basin, as well as to bedroom three, which can also serve as a dining room. This room features a front-facing window and loft access. The recently updated (January 2025) kitchen/breakfast room offers a range of wall, base, and drawer units, an integrated dishwasher, and space for a range cooker, washing machine, and upright fridge/freezer. The room is enhanced by exposed wooden beams and a front-facing window. The sitting room is a standout feature, boasting a large brick fireplace with a heavy wooden beam and a wood-burning stove. Steps lead up to a gallery landing, where a door opens into a loft room with two Velux windows, previously used as a bedroom. The sitting room also features an attractive A-frame wooden beam.

From the sitting room, a rear hall with a partially exposed stone wall leads to two double bedrooms and the family bathroom. Bedroom one is a spacious double with patio doors opening onto the courtyard garden, while bedroom two, also a generous double, includes a window overlooking the courtyard and a pedestal wash hand basin in one corner. The family bathroom is well-appointed with a roll-top bath, a separate shower enclosure with both an overhead shower and an electric hand shower, a WC, and a wash hand basin.

Outside
Outside, the property is approached from Goose Lane via a wooden gate with an ornate tiled canopy over. This opens out onto a large gravel driveway and a walled courtyard being enclosed and affording security. Significantly there are two purpose-built detached outbuildings, the first of which has double wooden doors and inner glazed doors , presenting an ideal opportunity to be utilised as a studio/home office space. The second building currently a secure store, offers further potential to be used for similar purposes. The remaining space, affords further potential to be cultivated into a secluded, more formal garden.
