Description
Upper Barn was originally a building used by the neighbouring farmhouse that has been converted into a stunning character property, its location very peaceful at the end of a no through lane just beneath the lovely gothic church. The accommodation itself is equally impressive and visually striking with much of the main timber structure and a multitude of other beams exposed exuding tremendous charm. The current owners have made improvements, decorating it quite beautifully and reconfiguring the ground floor which now incorporates two double bedrooms served by a bathroom to create a true family home offering four excellent bedrooms. The two ground floor bedrooms though could potentially be easily used as an annexe type area with a bedroom, living room and shower room.
There is a central entrance into an impressive grand dining hall with a vaulted ceiling and staircase featuring a gallery, the floor is rustic slate, and this slate extends through the majority of the ground floor. There is a rear lobby which provides a good storage room and leading off right from the dining hall is the fantastic kitchen/breakfast room, fitted out with taupe units and earthstone work surfaces. There is a Rayburn cooking range retro style in chrome and black but state of the art with rapid response start. Off the side is a utility room with the dishwasher and fridge/freezer (spaces for) and the oil boiler. At the back of the kitchen is the laundry room with wooden worktops, butlers sink and plumbing for the washing machine with space also for a tumble dryer and from here there are doors out to the rear and the cloakroom.
Adjacent the kitchen is the family room; it has a large brick fireplace with a cast iron woodburner and is dual aspect with fine views. The other side of the dining hall leads through to the sitting room where again, there is a handsome brick fireplace and inset a wood burning stove, and the room has a pleasant outlook over the garden.
Beyond is a lobby stepping down to a hall and two double bedrooms with vaulted ceilings that are served by a superb contemporary shower room.
Upstairs either side of the galleried landing are the two further bedrooms,
the principal suite has a corridor with cupboards, a dressing room fitted with wardrobes and a superbly presented shower room. The bedroom itself has a vaulted ceiling and with the exposed timber is a very attractive room. The guest bedroom is similarly impressive with an array of beams and benefits from a wet room with overhead shower.
The garden is to the front of the barn but with a secluded south westerly aspect encased by lovely mature trees and shrubs. A brick path leads round to a two tier decked area that benefits from an excellent view. There are brick steps and walls down to the lawn and a lower stone patio and the whole of the garden including the deck incorporates a range of lighting.
At the entrance to the property is a gravelled parking area with trees and hedging on levels retained by sleepers. A hand gate leads to a pretty covered entrance next to the garage which has power and light.
