Description

SUMMARY


A striking barn conversion with style, space, and countryside living. Offered with No Onward Chain.

Ansells Barn is a stunning example of a sympathetic conversion, tucked away in the peaceful countryside, a home where rustic charm meets modern design. Set behind a gated gravel driveway, this spacious home offers flexible living with four double bedrooms, three ensuites, and a well-designed open-plan kitchen / dining / living space with vaulted ceiling.

The property also comes with a large, enclosed garden, four brick-built storage units, and a further 13 acres (stls) of woodland and pasture.
 

THE HEART OF THE HOME

The centrepiece is the vast open-plan kitchen/dining/sitting room, crowned by an impressive, vaulted ceiling with exposed timbers.

The sleek kitchen, with its granite island and top-end appliances, is perfect for everything from lazy breakfasts to lively dinner parties, with bi-fold doors spilling out to the sun terrace beyond.

At its heart, a granite-topped island houses a NEFF hob and extractor, with plentiful storage. Twin Integrated NEFF ovens, microwave, plate warmer drawer, and BOSCH full-height fridge and freezer complete the high-specification kitchen.

There's ample room for a large dining table, and the sitting area centres on a cylindrical woodburner- perfect for cosy evenings. 

FLEXIBLE ACCOMMODATION

Behind its characterful timber frame lies a dramatic open-plan living space with soaring vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and a cosy woodburning stove at its heart - a room made for gathering family and friends.

With four double bedrooms and three stylish ensuites, there's plenty of space for family or guests and practical touches abound.

There is a utility room with additional appliances (including a two ring LPG bottle fed gas hob), and a clever boot room with WC, storage, and even a 'dog shower'-ideal after muddy countryside walks.

On the ground floor, the principal bedroom is a luxurious retreat, complete with built-in wardrobes, bi-fold doors to a sun terrace, and ensuite with bath, rainfall shower, twin vanity storage, and heated towel rail.

A second ground-floor double also benefits from fitted storage and an ensuite shower room. Upstairs, two further bedrooms are accessed via separate staircases. One offers a galleried view over the living space below and has its own ensuite, while the other makes an excellent guest room or home office.
 

OUTDOOR LIVING


A gated gravel driveway offers ample parking and also provides access to four useful brick built storage units.

A flagstone sun terrace wraps around the side of the barn, capturing the sun and offering the perfect setting for summer entertaining.

The main garden is laid to lawn, while a further 13 acres (stls) of woodland and pasture can be accessed via the garden, though there is a separate roadside entrance.
 

LOCATION - TWINSTEAD AND SURROUNDS

Twinstead is a charming rural village that offers the best of countryside living, with rolling farmland, peaceful surroundings, and a strong sense of community.

It's the ideal setting for those who value space, tranquillity, and outdoor pursuits such as walking, cycling, or horse riding, while still being within easy reach of Sudbury and Colchester for shops, schools, and amenities.

Excellent transport links make it well connected, with nearby stations at Bures and Sudbury, and mainline services from Marks Tey to London Liverpool Street in under an hour-perfect for commuters seeking a balance between village life and city access.

Characterised by historic buildings, unspoilt landscapes, and a welcoming village feel, Twinstead combines heritage and natural beauty with the convenience of nearby towns-making it a wonderful place to call home.
 



Ansells Barn is a rare find, combining spectacular open-plan living with the warmth of character, practical family spaces, and the freedom of countryside living.
