The Property
The Barn consists of various, impressive sized buildings and outbuildings. The main property is an extensively converted barn to exceptional living space. As you enter through the front door you are greeted by a warm and light entrance hall with utility room to the left which contains base units with sink, storage and built in fridge under. Tucked away behind the hallway is an area for storing shoes and coats. The hallway gives access to the sitting room with views of the patio area and garden, a brick fireplace with wood burning stove is the main focus of this generous room. This room takes you around to the back of the property, leading through to the drawing room with access to the patio area. This huge open living space is home to a most impressive brick fireplace and wood burning stove, next to which is the stairs to the first floor. Towards the back of the room you will find floor to ceiling windows with beautiful views over the adjacent pond and rear courtyard.
Moving back to the entrance hallway, taking the open, light walkway brings you to the fantastic glazed oak dining area with glass ceiling and concertina doors to the garden. Attached is the impressive kitchen/breakfast room with vaulted ceiling built in an oak frame and further floor to ceiling windows overlooking the gardens. In the centre of the room is a large island with sink, storage is found beneath and the surrounding walls boast substantial base and wall units providing further storage, topped with polished concrete work surfaces. Access to outside is also found to the side of the kitchen. Taking the wooden door to the rear of the kitchen area brings you to the magnificent bathroom. This room sports oaks beams, a vaulted ceiling and wall to wall windows to the west along with WC, basin, walk-in shower unit and stand-alone oval bathtub. This room could also be changed to provide an extra reception room should the new owner require more space.
Taking the stairs to the first floor brings you to the open landing area with built in storage cupboards. To the far end you will find the first double
bedroom with floor to ceiling windows to the east with views over the pond, to the south a window looking into the rear garden. Built in storage is found beneath the stairs to the second floor, within this room. Just outside of the first bedroom is a shower room with lovely exposed beams and containing large shower unit, WC, basin with cupboard below and tiled flooring. At the opposite end of the landing is the second bedroom, also a double and of a very good size with vaulted ceiling and exposed beams. Further exposed beams are found within and a double aspect to the south and west. The stairs to the second floor bring you directly up into the third bedroom, also of a very good size. This room boasts an east aspect over the pond with velux windows to the north and south, built in storage cupboards and ample room to have an ensuite/shower room fitted, subject to the usual planning consents. The fourth bedroom is accessed via the third and is also large enough to fit a double bed with room to spare. Features within include vaulted ceiling, exposed beams and chimney breast, with a window to the west aspect.
The office building is set behind the property and is of a brick and weather boarded construction with pan tiled roof and glass skylights. Throughout the interior are vaulted ceilings with feature beams, oak doors and framed windows. It is divided into four large rooms which would suit various uses. The first room is currently used as a workshop and has separate access from outside. The next room along is the largest in size and provides an excellent office or studio space and is linked to the rest of the building via a hallway. The middle room is currently used as storage space but is easily large enough to use as a second office or studio room. The final room provides a spacious meeting/training room style area. Double doors open into the rear garden and this room sports a triple aspect, providing a light and airy workspace. This room would be perfect for a gallery or recreational room for hobbies or work. The entire office building has internet connection and has been extensively rewired for an office environment.
Outside
A short distance after turning into the lane is a railway crossing, further down the lane brings you to the plot of land that The Barn occupies. The plot measures approximately 4.3 acres wrapped around the main barn, the shingle parking area is reached via two different driveways, one of which has shared access to the only near neighbour. From the large shingle parking area there is access to the garage which is of a brick and block construction with pan tiled roof. Adjacent is The Dairy which is of the same construction, both having power and light. The Dairy has planning permission granted to become a substantial annexe building (drawings avaialble) but is currently used as workshop and storage space. This building measures approximately 50ft x 54ft in total and has two storeys. To the west and south of the main barn lies the formal gardens, mainly laid to lawn with well tended beds and mature trees. Shingle pathways link the barn and office buildings to the south-facing courtyard area with recessed spotlights and decked area. South of the glazed dining area lies a hedged garden area also catching the sun. The gardens are also home to two summerhouses, one of which has power connected. Beyond these gardens lie the land which surrounds the property on three aspects, this land is laid to grass and brings the total area to 4.3 acres approximately.
