An exceptional and highly individual barn conversion, created from a former pair of traditional barns, set within approximately 1.8 acres on the northern edge of The Forest of Dean, offering versatile accommodation, a striking galleried studio with study, and further development potential. Northend Court represents a rare opportunity to acquire a home of exceptional character and versatility within a truly idyllic setting.

Originally comprising two barns set perpendicular to one another and enclosed by traditional stone boundary walls, Northend Court has been thoughtfully and sympathetically transformed.

At its heart lies a Grade II Listed 17th-century threshing barn, showcasing magnificent oak framing and stone gable ends, now seamlessly connected via a bespoke oak-framed link to an adjoining 18th-century brick barn. The result is a home of exceptional architectural interest, where heritage craftsmanship and contemporary living exist in perfect harmony.

Developed by the current owners with great care and attention to detail, Northend Court now offers a wonderful balance of character, space, and lifestyle, all set within a peaceful and private position surrounded by open countryside.

STEP INSIDE
The accommodation is both generous and highly versatile, thoughtfully arranged to complement modern living whilst preserving the integrity and charm of the original barns.

At the heart of the home lies a beautifully appointed kitchen and dining room, designed as a sociable hub for both everyday living and entertaining. Traditional style cabinetry is complemented by warm wooden worktops and a central island, whilst a classic Aga forms both a functional and characterful focal point. This inviting space flows effortlessly into a substantial living room, where expansive glazing allows natural light to pour in and provides a seamless connection to the gardens.

The property offers four bedrooms in total. The principal bedroom suite is particularly impressive, benefitting from its own en-suite bathroom and a striking spiral staircase rising to a mezzanine level, creating a private and characterful retreat.

Bedrooms two and three are equally distinctive, each featuring upper-level accommodation, adding architectural interest and flexibility, ideal for family living, or guest use. A fourth bedroom provides further adaptable space.

Supporting the main living areas are a range of practical yet well-considered rooms, including a boot room, laundry room, and utility room, all enhancing day-to-day functionality without compromising on style.

A defining feature of Northend Court is the impressive galleried studio, a beautifully light-filled space characterised by vaulted ceilings, exposed timbers and dramatic proportions.

Complemented by a separate study, this exceptional space offers enormous versatility - ideal for home working, creative pursuits, or potential ancillary accommodation.

Throughout the property, the original character has been carefully preserved and enhanced, with features including:
• Exposed beams and vaulted ceilings
• Natural stone and timber detailing
• Feature glazing inviting an abundance of natural light
• A considered layout designed for both comfort and flow

STEP OUTSIDE
Set within circa 1.8 acres, the grounds offer a wonderful sense of space and privacy, with lawned areas, terrace seating, and far-reaching countryside views. The setting is both peaceful and unspoilt, ideal for those seeking a rural lifestyle whilst remaining connected.

In addition to the main residence, the property benefits from a substantial barn, currently utilised for storage and workshop purposes. This provides excellent scope for further development offering exciting potential for additional accommodation, workspace, or lifestyle facilities. Planning permission is in place for the development of the barn, and any alternative or additional development would be subject to obtaining the necessary consents.

Northend Court enjoys a delightful position just to the north of The Forest of Dean, an area celebrated for its outstanding natural beauty, ancient woodland, and an abundance of outdoor pursuits.
