Ridley, Tarporley

Enjoying a quarter acre plot with wonderful rural views this excellently presented barn conversion of 1,842 sq. feet is located within a few minutes drive of Bunbury village and benefits from ample parking

Comment from Oliver Weston of Gascoigne Halman

With an impressive amount of space, some amazing characterful features and beautiful countryside views this barn conversion is an absolute delight and well worth viewing to fully appreciate all the features it has to offer.

The home has a favourable position within the small development of five barns that surround a central courtyard and enjoy an excellent location with easy access to the A49 commuter routes and the nearby villages of Bunbury and Tarporley offering a range of amenities and excellent schools.

Internally the property comes to a total of 1,842 sq. feet of living space and thanks to its tasteful design has formed a great balance of modern open plan living with traditional styles and cosy feel.

The property begins with the entrance hall, benefitting from a vaulted ceiling and adjoining cloak room toilet, that leads through to an inner hall that forms part of the open plan kitchen and dining room. Along with the adjoining utility room the stylish kitchen features a breakfast bar which helps separate the formal dining area with its large double glass doors and windows taking in views of the garden and countryside.

The living room is of particular note, being nearly 26 feet in length, and provides an adaptable space with plenty of light that is currently split into a library reading area and formal living space surrounding the log burner fireplace.

The galleried landing creates a lovely access to the first floor where the principal bedroom is sure to impress thanks to the eye catching exposed beam and its great proportions that combine a spacious bedroom, separate dressing area and en suite bathroom. It should be noted that if required and subject to the necessary alterations, the dressing room is of an ideal size to serve as a nursery or additional single bedroom.

The second bedroom also benefits from an en suite whilst the third bedroom, currently utilised as a home office, is served by the main family bathroom.
