A beautifully converted dairy barn in a quiet rural setting

Description

The property is approached down a private tree lined drive and is one of four beautifully converted historic buildings dating back to the beginning of the 20th Century. This former dairy building was imaginatively converted in 2013 by Rectory Homes. The conversion was carried out to the highest specification, utilising the most up to date building and insulation technology. The property has been further improved with the addition of panelled shutters throughout the ground floor and a comprehensive security system making this a unique, secure and stylish family home. The barn, which is attached to the neighbouring building offers impressive and flexible accommodation with generous features such as the double height open plan kitchen with dining/ living area including a wood burning fire and bi-fold doors onto a courtyard. A fabulous glass walkway links the entrance hall, family room, drawing room, as well as a double bedroom and the principal bedroom suite on the ground floor. Stairs lead up to first floor level where there are three further bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room, and a family bathroom. There is scope to enlarge the accommodation further by converting the garaging on the ground floor and the remainder of the first floor space.

Outside
From the main drive double five bar gates open onto a circular driveway with planting providing parking for several cars and wide steps up to the front door. Beyond the drive a further gate leads through to the attractive rear garden which is laid to lawn with numerous specimen trees and views across the farmland beyond. A further access from the main drive opens onto a south facing courtyard with an open fronted triple garage and a door to the glass walkway and a further delightful inner courtyard planted with lavender.

Location
