Property description
**NO CHAIN** Originally part of a working dairy farm and with many original features made prominent during the conversion of this stunning family home, this three bedroom barn conversion with spectacular views of the countryside and single garage has many stories to tell. Whilst the building dates back many years the property was converted approximately 18 years ago with some improvements made more recently with care taken to enhance and maintain the character. The entrance hallway opens up into a fantastic space with quarry tiled floors, wooden stairs and an aged exposed beam all adding to the character immediately as you walk through the front door. Ground floor accommodation consists of a spacious living room with direct access to the garden and an original archway leading into the dining room making entertaining guests easy as the rooms flow naturally into on another. The stylish kitchen is at the front of the house with a quirky glazed serving hatch into the dining room allowing the house to be opened up all the way from front to back. Upstairs hosts the spacious master bedroom with en-suite and built in wardrobe and two further bedrooms with sloping ceilings with velux windows providing access from an elevated position to those outstanding views and exposed beams. The final room is the family bathroom with original porthole window and an exceptional finish adding a touch more class to the property with a roll top bath and classical design. Outside to the rear of the garden is the single garage whilst the property benefits from a block paved frontage, beautiful private rear garden with patio space and ornamental planting and access to a communal courtyard. So call us to day and book in your viewing to let the barn tell you its story in its own words.
