A fantastic opportunity to purchase an individual conversion of a part attached, former period barn, which has been sympathetically renovated and extended to provide a good level of accommodation approaching 1,400 sq.ft. and offering the ability to be utilised as both single or two storey home, potentially providing up to three bedrooms and three receptions. The property occupies a delightful semi rural setting on the outskirts of this popular village of Hose, having an established, westerly facing garden, a good level of off road parking and detached double garage.

The barn also benefits from the unusual addition of a six acre paddock which is located literally on the opposing side of pasture lane, opposite the dwelling. This in turn makes it ideal for the equestrian user looking for a more manageable but interesting home with a well maintained paddock within a few steps of the house.

Overall viewing is the only way to truly appreciate both the location and accommodation on offer.
