The Property
The Granary is a Grade II listed barn conversion constructed of traditional red brick with slate tiles upon a timber roof structure. Over recent months, all structural work has been sympathetically completed including a new roof, new weatherboarding, replacement brickwork and new doors and windows. The accommodation is well laid out with three double bedrooms (one to the ground floor) and two bathrooms. Period features flow throughout the barn with high vaulted ceilings, exposed studwork, original floorboards and granary shutters to windows. Although 95% complete, the barn offers the potential for a purchaser to put their own stamp on the property with regards to internal decoration, flooring and garden design. On the ground floor is a large vaulted
sitting room/diner with patio doors leading out into the garden. The room is light and airy, with a feature fireplace situated in the corner of the room. A doorway leads through into the ground floor bedroom, with adjacent en-suite shower room comprising a modern three piece suite. The kitchen/breakfast room leads off the sitting room and is fully fitted with a shaker style kitchen, with a built in dishwasher, double oven, hob and fridge. Further utility space is available in the adjacent utility cupboard. Stairs rise up to the first floor where you will find two bedrooms and the family shower room. Both the bedrooms can accommodate double beds with the master having the additional benefit of the original granary entrance, which has recently been restored with a staircase down to the garden.
Outside
The barn is situated on a plot extending to approximately 0.25 acres. A shared driveway leads up to the parking area and double cart lodge which has both power and light. Beyond the cart lodge are the private gardens, with mature trees and sweeping lawns. At the end of the garden is a Scandinavian timber summer house, which looks back across the gardens to the house.
