A Striking Contemporary Barn Conversion with Countryside Views and Huge Versatility

Welcome to The Black Barn – a truly impressive and thoughtfully designed barn conversion offering the perfect blend of traditional rural character and sleek modern living. Located on Folly Farm Gardens, a development on the outskirts of Canterbury, this expansive six-bedroom family home spans over 3,000 sq ft, with high-end finishes, flexible living space, and stunning countryside views to the rear.

Step through the grand entrance hall into a breathtaking open-plan kitchen and living area, designed for both everyday comfort and entertaining. The kitchen features a generous central island, integrated appliances, and wide glazed doors that bathe the space in light and frame peaceful rural vistas beyond.

Off this space is a dedicated dining area, perfect for formal meals and social gatherings. Toward the front of the home, a snug/den and separate study/office provide quiet retreat spaces ideal for family living or remote work.

A utility room and stylish shower room add practical convenience to the layout, while quality finishes throughout highlight the care and craftsmanship typical of a barn conversion.

The main bedroom enjoys tranquil views and a private en suite, while bedroom two also benefits from its own en suite – perfect as a guest suite. A large family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms, all of which are finished to an exceptional standard.
