**UPCOMING HOPKINS ESTATES PROJECT**

This is an opportunity to get involved at the early stages of the latest development by renowned Hopkins Estates.

This exceptional single-storey barn conversion offers over 3,500 sq ft of beautifully proportioned accommodation, combining contemporary living with the retained character of the original agricultural building. Constructed using local Blackford stone, a locally styled clay roof, and contemporary glazing, the property sits in an idyllic countryside setting within the sought-after village of Compton Pauncefoot.

A striking oak post veranda runs along the front elevation, with expansive sliding doors that flood the interior with natural light and provides seamless access to the landscaped front garden. The design successfully balances traditional charm with modern efficiency, and the added option to include solar panels.

Accommodation
The single-storey home is arranged across two distinct wings, with access via an entrance hall in each, and connected by a stunning glazed hallway overlooking the veranda.

The left wing is primarily dedicated to bedroom and study accommodation. Accessed via a spacious entrance hall, the wing enjoys excellent natural light through the glazed frontage. The principal bedroom is a generously proportioned double room featuring French doors that open directly onto the rear garden. It is complemented by a well-appointed dressing room with built-in wardrobes and a luxurious en-suite bathroom fitted with a bath, separate shower, WC, and twin basins. Three further double bedrooms are located within this wing, each enjoying the benefit of its own en-suite shower room. Bedrooms two, three, and four are all well sized and thoughtfully laid out, with a combination of built-in wardrobes or separate closets providing excellent storage. Completing this wing is a dedicated study, ideal for home working or use as a quiet reading or hobby room.

The right wing of the property provides the main living accommodation. A spacious snug offers a comfortable secondary reception room and features French doors opening onto the rear garden, making it an ideal space for relaxation or informal entertaining. Adjacent to this is a contemporary shower room fitted with WC, basin, and shower, providing convenient facilities for guests.

The centrepiece of the home is the impressive open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area. This expansive space has been designed to flow seamlessly between zones, creating a sociable and functional environment for modern living. The living area features sliding doors that open onto the garden, while the dining area sits naturally between the living space and the kitchen, making it ideal for entertaining. The contemporary kitchen is fitted with high-quality appliances and is centred around a substantial island and breakfast bar, complemented by a separate pantry. Glazing adjacent to the kitchen opens to the front aspect, enhancing the connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces. A door from the kitchen leads into the utility and boot room, which provides a practical space for coats, shoes, and household appliances, as well as an external door. From here, access is provided to the plant room, which houses the hot water tank and benefits from its own external access.

Outside
To the front of the property, a private driveway lined with shrubs and planting, provides access to the double garage with an attached store, offering excellent space for parking and storage. A paved patio extends along the front elevation beneath the oak post veranda, creating an inviting area for outdoor seating and entertaining, while areas laid to lawn complement the frontage and provide a pleasant outlook from the principal rooms.

The rear garden is fully enclosed and enjoys a desirable south-westerly aspect, ensuring plenty of afternoon and evening sunlight. Generously sized and thoughtfully arranged, it offers a high degree of privacy and provides an ideal setting for family life, outdoor dining, and entertaining, all while enjoying the peaceful countryside surroundings.
