Description
Welcome to Longacre, a beautiful detached character home located on one of the most sought after roads within New Barn.
Built in the late 1920's and owned since 2008, the home has seen significant changes and major improvements over the years and now offers a fantastic blend of modern finishes with a timeless country charm.
Following three previous improvements to the original build, the home now comes in at just under 1,900 square feet or if you include all outbuildings, this increases to just over 2,300 square feet. On the ground floor, there is ample space for all to enjoy. The redesigned hallway was thoughtfully reconfigured to create space for both storage, cloakroom and dedicated laundry facilities. The kitchen features fitted cabinetry inspired by classic farmhouse styling, while the 29ft triple aspect living room delivers real wow factor. Its cavernous proportions are anchored by a glorious 10ft wide inglenook fireplace, double sided to also serve the separate dining room - a rare and striking feature that adds warmth and character. Completing the ground floor is a spacious, light filled garden room, providing an additional versatile living area that connects beautifully with the outdoor space. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms. Three of which are very good sized doubles with the fourth being a lovely single room. The impressive family bathroom has been redesigned with no expense spared and similar to the modern ensuite, both rooms come complete with separate bathtubs and walk in shower cubicles.
Heading outside, this home continues to impress. On arrival, you are greeted by a gated, multi vehicle driveway to one side and a beautifully mature front garden to the other. The driveway leads to a detached double garage, complete with a versatile 20ft room above that lends itself perfectly to hobbies, storage or further workspace.
The rear garden is a true reflection of how much the current owners cherish their outdoor space. A generous terrace overlooks the expansive lawn, framed by well stocked borders and some of the most beautiful rose bushes you are likely to see. Behind the garage sits a wildlife pond and an additional garden area that leads to a charming detached summer house, tucked away from the main garden.
To complete the offering, there is a further detached outbuilding, used for many years as the owners’ home office. Measuring just over 16ft and featuring a lovely vaulted ceiling, it provides an ideal, private workspace or studio. Overall, the entire plot for this home comes in at just under half an acre at 0.46.
