This detached barn conversion offers a unique opportunity to acquire a four-bedroom home with significant renovation and investment potential. Originally constructed in the 1830s, the property has been thoughtfully updated to provide a spacious and bright living environment while still allowing for further customization to suit individual needs.
The ground floor features an inviting entrance hall that leads to a dining room showcasing beautiful wood paneling and expansive views of the surrounding countryside. The large kitchen is equipped with granite worktops, an electric hob, oven, and an integrated dishwasher. This area seamlessly connects to a conservatory that boasts south-facing views and benefits from photochromatic glass in the roof to help maintain a comfortable temperature year-round. Adjacent to the kitchen is a utility room and cloakroom with WC, providing practical convenience. A double garage is accessible through a side door.
To the left of the entrance hall, stairs lead up to a generously sized sitting room, which highlights original beams and features a prominent fireplace. On the first floor, there’s an additional family room that offers flexible living options. The attic space serves as ample storage but could present opportunities for conversion into additional accommodation if desired.
The layout includes four double bedrooms on the ground floor; three equipped with en suites, while the master bedroom offers an extensive dressing area along with glass patio doors leading out to the garden. Each bedroom provides fitted wardrobes and pleasant views of the outdoor spaces. A newly fitted Jack and Jill bathroom services one of the secondary bedrooms.
Externally, this property stands on a gravel driveway with parking for multiple vehicles in front of both the house and garage. Gated access leads from the side of the building to rear gardens that are beautifully landscaped and designed for entertaining. The south-facing garden includes a sizeable paved patio area along with a large lawn surrounded by mature flowerbeds.
Notably, planning consent has been granted for constructing an additional four-bedroom home within the current garden footprint. Water and electricity connections have already been established, making this plot ripe for development.
