A cosy snug area with a substantial open fireplace provides a warm and inviting focal point, while the kitchen to the rear is fitted with handcrafted painted cabinetry, stone worktops, and doors opening directly onto the garden. A separate utility room and cloakroom complete the ground floor accommodation.
Two staircases rise to the first floor, where the galleried bedroom accommodation is arranged.

A second bedroom benefits from an en-suite bathroom with a charming French-style inset bath, while a third bedroom also enjoys en-suite facilities. A further staircase leads to an additional room, currently used as a bedroom, with a storage area adjacent via a further separate staircase.
The Barn is complemented by a separate one-bedroom Grade II listed cottage that currently generates a successful long-term rental income.
Outside, the property is set within beautifully landscaped gardens that surround the Barn, creating a private and tranquil setting. The grounds are further enhanced by a range of useful outbuildings and ample off-road parking.
