THE HOUSE

This magnificent, attached brick and flint barn conversion stands proudly on the edge of the delightful and thriving village of Dummer, surrounded by some of North Hampshire’s most picturesque countryside. Automated wooden gates open on to a a block paved driveway that leads to a parking area in front of the garages and studio. Steps lead down to a sunken patio area at the front of the property where the formal entrance is found. Stepping into the Reception Hall the impressive partially vaulted ceiling nods to the scale of this barn which offers a little over 4000 square feet of accommodation set out over three floors. An attractive slate floor with under floor heating runs throughout the ground floor accommodation which includes both the drawing room and Kitchen that lie either side of the Reception Hall. Fitted with German Bulthaup storage units with integrated Miele appliances and two island units, this kitchen is both minimalistic and stylish, yet offers a highly practical area for cooking, dining and family relaxation. Ceiling to floor windows on either side of the kitchen flood the room with natural light which also provides access to extensive front and rear terraces and the gardens. Directly off the kitchen is an extensive Utility Room which provides further access to the grounds. The Drawing Room, with a log burning stove, also benefits from having windows and doors to the garden on opposite sides of this room. Stairs in Reception Hall lead up to a galleried landing along which four of the six bedrooms are located. This includes the impressive principal suite, which has an ensuite bathroom, dressing room and a large storage area accessed from the rear of the room. A family bathroom serves the remaining three bedrooms, but it is worth noting that there is a sauna which also has a separate shower. Climbing the stairs to the second gallery landing there are two further bedrooms at either end, one of which has an ensuite bathroom.

GARDENS AND GROUNDS

Within the grounds of 2 Clump Barn is a significant building that incorporates a double electric garage, a fantastic studio with a storeroom above.
