Set within a farmstead setting in a highly sought-after and picturesque village location, a short distance from Kirkby Lonsdale, Skirden Barn is a semi detached Grade II Listed recently converted barn.

High quality fixtures and fittings and a contemporary kitchen and bath/shower rooms blend well with the character beams, lintels and exposed stone walls and since the vendors' purchase, the property has been enhanced further by the conversion of an outbuilding to create a wonderful studio/garden room.

The accommodation is spacious (gross internal measurement of 1578 sq ft [146.6 sq m]), sun filled, light and airy and offers a wonderful and sociable open plan living space.

Move in and start living, this is a house to relax and enjoy!

Let us take you on a tour...

Come on in to the entrance vestibule to the rear. A glazed door and side panel leads into a light and bright 'L' shaped hall with tall ceilings, two conservation skylight windows and a plant cupboard housing boiler, hot water cylinder and underfloor heating controls.

Oak steps lead up to a utility/laundry room with base units, sink unit and plumbing for a washing machine. There is also a WC.

Opposite, the four piece house bathroom is located to the ground floor with elliptical shaped bath, large walk-in shower and vanity wash basin and will serve the two ground floor bedrooms.

Also off the hall is the fabulous split-level open plan reception space with a dramatic double height ceiling, exposed timbers and stone wall. The dining kitchen is fitted with base, wall and island units, quartz worktops and uprights, integral oven and grill, induction hob, dishwasher and fridge/freezer. A glazed door provides access to the upper flagged terrace and also allows light to flood in.

Oak steps lead down to the sitting room with wood burning stove and glazed double doors with side panels leading out to the lower flagged terrace.

Two of the three double bedrooms are also to the ground floor, both having built in double wardrobes.

The principal bedroom is to the first floor; being open to the apex with exposed roof timbers, there is a low level window set within the original barn door opening and a dressing room. There is also a stylish three piece en suite shower room.

Outdoor space

To the rear, there is a large gravel parking and turning area bordered by stone walls and providing private parking for a number of vehicles.

A stone and slate outbuilding, known as 'The Piggery' has been converted into a studio/garden room with fitted unit to one wall, granite worktop, wood panelling to one wall and bi-folding doors. This space can be used in many ways - home office, gym, hobby room etc. Attached is a garden store - this has plumbing so a WC and wash basin could be installed. The outbuilding has a GIA of c. 237 sq ft (22 sq m).

There are two separate garden areas - to the front and with a wooden pedestrian gate from the shared lane, a south facing, split-level garden with lawn, planted beds, flagged terraces and direct access from the dining kitchen and sitting room.

The second garden is south-westerly facing with access from the lane and from the studio/garden room. There's a level lawn, flagged terrace and rocky outcrop as well as far reaching views.
