THE GRAND TOUR
Entering via the main entrance door to the front you are greeted by a spacious, bright and welcoming hallway flooded with natural with stairs leading to the first floor landing. A practical wooden flooring runs throughout the space as well as double door access to a central external courtyard providing a sheltered place to sit overlooking a pond. The first room to the left of the hall is the office space with a dual aspect and a continuation of the wood flooring. The office could also easily be utilised as a bedroom if needs be and leads through to an inner hallway with ample storage, access to a shower room / w/c with a comfortable ground floor bedroom beyond which offers a triple aspect. The hallway provides access to the sitting room on the opposite side of the hall via inviting double doors. The hallway winds its way around the staircase and offers access to the kitchen/diner as well as the main bedroom on the ground floor. The main bedroom is an impressive room with a vaulted ceiling, an exposed brick wall, double doors onto the courtyard and an en-suite bathroom with roll top bath. The bedroom gives way to a further equally impressive room currently used perfectly as an office. With plenty of natural light, vaulted ceiling, exposed brickwork and three sets of doors leading to outside space, this is a wonderful home office but could of course be another bedroom if required. The kitchen/diner, a bespoke fitted space is in keeping with the barn itself and offers a range of solid wood units with worktops over as well as integrated electric oven and hob. There is then space for various white goods as well as the kitchen table alongside tiled flooring, exposed beams and access to the utility room. The utility houses further units with a second sink and space and plumbing for washing machine alongside the boiler system for the ground floor heating and a door leading to the garden. Off the kitchen you will also find the garden room, a newer addition to the build with a stunning aspect overlooking the garden. This space is currently used as a dining room but is flexible and links back to the main sitting room. The same wood flooring runs throughout these rooms and the sitting room features the best of the barn with exposed timbers, brickwork, a feature woodburner and doors leading out to the raised decking at the front.

Heading up to the first floor landing you will find a double bedroom to the rear with vaulted ceiling and timbers as well as built in storage and an en-suite bathroom with a roll top bath. On the other side of the landing there is a stunning bedroom which is technically the largest in the house and features the best views across the valley. This rooms is filled with natural light and is currently used as an artists studio but is of course a bedroom in the main.
