Occupying an exceptional location, a stunning barn conversion with far reaching views. The fabulous open plan reception area boasts a vaulted ceiling with a wealth of exposed timbers and the large kitchen/dining area is the centre of this home and a wonderful place to entertain.

To the rear of the reception area is a magnificent orangery with full glazing to make the most of the view over the garden towards the heated pool. Also, on the ground floor are three bedrooms and a bathroom plus additional shower room. A large dressing room adjoins the main bedroom, and this could make a fourth bedroom.

The rear garden is a particular feature of the property being enclosed by an attractive winklestone and brick wall, and to the rear of the stable block is an arbour walk and seating area. At the end of the garden is a heated swimming pool with sandstone surround.
