To the front of the barn is a generous entrance hallway with impressive double height glazing and vaulted ceiling, an oak staircase to the first floor and a modern shower room. The kitchen/dining room has a range of modern fitted units complete with integrated appliances and underfloor heating, and is open plan into the dining room. There a double french doors here opening onto the loggia. The boot room/utility is just beyond the kitchen area with a door to the side. To the rear of the barn there is a generous size drawing room with a feature fireplace, wood burning stove and two french doors, one opening to the side and the other onto the loggia. The separate sitting room has fitted bookshelves and french doors opening onto the loggia.

The windows enjoy fabulous views over the gardens and surrounding countryside.
Annexe
The annexe which was built by the current owners 20 years ago is in keeping with the barn and just as pleasing. The front door opens into the studio/sitting area and upstairs there are 2 double bedrooms, 1 having double doors opening onto the balcony which has magnificent uninterrupted countryside views. Both bedrooms share the modern shower room.
Outside
Gardens 2.93 acres
To the front of the property is an area of off road immediately outside the barn and further parking by the annexe/double garage. The gardens are mostly laid to lawn around the barn and annexe with mature clipped hedges, trees, plants and flowers. There is a long paved terrace under the loggia which makes this an exceptional entertaining space. There is a further paved terrace and a potting shed/greenhouse. Opposite the barn there is the addition of the two and a half acre field made up of a small orchard and enclosed meadow including a rabbit proof cutting garden. This would make a great paddock for equestrian purposes.
