A former agricultural stone barn converted into a dwelling circa 2004.

Horseshoe Barn is one of 3 properties, the original farmhouse and the former stables which have also been converted to a dwelling. Horseshoe Barn has its own private driveway and the position of the other properties ensure that Horseshoe Barn has much privacy and to the rear there is an open outlook across its own fields. This pretty barn is complemented by private gardens comprising lawns, trees, vegetable garden and stone terrace. There is ample space for chickens, children's play area or space simply to relax and enjoy this beautiful, tranquil location. To the rear of the grounds are wooden stables adjoining pasture paddocks. Horseshoe Barn and grounds amount to circa 5 acres.

The kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of country style cream cupboards with wooden work surfaces over. The design and décor of the kitchen is complemented with a tiled floor and a Rangemaster cooker. To the front are the glazed doors and windows providing much light and enjoyment of the pretty front garden. Steps lead to a spacious dining room with ample space for table, chairs and dining room furniture. From the dining room is one of two staircases to the first floor and a door to a useful utility/ boot room with space for laundry appliances and storage. The house flows naturally with the dining room adjoining the enchanting sitting room, with its two sets of full height windows and glazed doors opening to the rear, flooding this room with light.

The sitting room has a vaulted ceiling with exposed timbers and an impressive stone fireplace housing a wood burning stove. The doors to the rear open on to a private terrace and the delightful garden adjoining open fields. The doors to the front open onto the front garden and pretty cottage style courtyard. Continue from the sitting room to an inner hall (this area could be a separate annexe or incorporated into the main house as presently configured) with a door to the ground floor wet room, second staircase to two first floor bedrooms and a door to a study/ground floor bedroom with window to the front elevation.

First Floor

The bedrooms are on the first floor and located via two separate staircases. All of the bedrooms retain much character with exposed timbers, windows or roof lights. The staircase from the dining room leads to the principal bedroom with ample storage, dressing room and en-suite bathroom. This room has a vaulted ceiling and a feature stone triangle set into the wall which adds to the character. The second staircase is located off the inner hall beyond the sitting room, this staircase provides access to two bedrooms, both with storage and character. The wet room to serve these two bedrooms is situated at the foot of the staircase.

Outside

The house is approached via a 5 bar gate leading from the country lane and along a private driveway, a second gate opens onto the large parking area and garage. To the side of the parking area is the front courtyard garden and the front door to the barn.

Immediately adjoining the house are mature, pretty gardens, path leads from the side of the house to the rear where a terrace is perfectly positioned to enjoy the gardens and views across open fields – a wonderful place to enjoy the peace and tranquillity of the location with a morning coffee or evening glass of wine.
