Coombe Lane, Naphill, HP14

Located in an elevated position and commanding views across its own land to the valley beyond, this Grade II Listed threshing barn is approximately 400 years old and has been extensively renovated by the current owners. Today, spacious accommodation takes full advantage of natural light, as evidenced as soon as one enters, by the fabulous vaulted central reception room with double height windows. Exposed timbers and herringbone brickwork lend an abundance of character to this property. The snug and kitchen lead off the reception hall and the latter has oak-fronted units and granite work surfaces. Accessed from both the reception room and the kitchen (via the utility room), the dining room has exposed beams and a wide glazed wall. To the west of the reception room, a family room with a spiral staircase to the first floor, a study/bedroom 6 and a shower room and secondary cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation. The main staircase rises from the reception room to the galleried landing which has a library area lined with book shelves. The dual aspect principal bedroom has exposed beams and a staircase to its en suite bathroom on the second floor with a boat bath crafted from beech wood on an oak plinth. There is a family bathroom and three further bedrooms on the second floor, one of which has an en suite shower room. The spiral staircase rises to the fifth bedroom with a sitting area and night cloakroom.
