Lounge - 26' 11'' x 18' 8'' (8.2m x 5.69m)
This is a spacious room with exposed beams and glorious unspoilt views over the garden and surrounding country side. Originally a threshing barn, it has 2 very large openings either side of the building, both with a span of approximately 9 feet. On the north side is the front door area as you come down the drive, and on the opposite side {south} is a door which opens out onto a 54' square feet sun-trap decking/balcony with wrought iron railings which steps down onto the terrace. The decking is just under 12' long x 4'6" wide. There are 3 radiators, a wood burner set in a large handmade brick fireplace, numerous power points, a tv aerial, phone points; dimmers and alarm control panel. From here there is an open tread wooden staircase leading up to the bedrooms via a small landing. Also from the lounge you descend into the homely kitchen via 4 steps; and at the far end of the lounge to the left of the fireplace, via a door you enter the 46 foot long sitting room, affectionately referred to as 'The dogleg'.

Sitting Room (Dogleg) - 46' x 11' 4'' (14.02m x 3.45m)
A delightfully ambient room with huge amounts of natural daylight and exposed beams, in fact, all the windows face the garden and views beyond. There are 2 separate entrances into this room; 1 via a single door from a gravelled walkway at rear of the room leading into a small porch area which has a door leading to a cloakroom with window and small wash hand basin. This sitting room used to be the original cowshed and the typical round pillars have been kept intact. This room also benefits from a wood burner and has 3 radiators. There are ample power points, a tv aerial point and dimmer switches. The 2nd door into this room has a large glass panel either side of it and again opens out onto a gravel path by the drive at the back of the house - also with views over the garden and surrounding country side.

Kitchen - 20' 11'' x 18' 8'' (6.38m x 5.69m)
A homely 'gathering place' as is always the case with kitchens! There is an Aga-type double oven cooking range called a "Sandyford Classic". It has three functions and can be used individually for cooking, central heating and hot water , or in any other combination. Due to the fact that the barn doesn't have a loft, there is a large water storage tank in the top garage from where water is fed into a 'Heatrae Sadia Megaflow' unvented boiler situated in a cupboard next to the range, this feeds the rest of the property with the required hot water under pressure. The cold water tap on the double & half bowl single drainer composite sink is the 'mains' water {as in not from the storage tank} but 'mains' as in direct from the private water supply from a bore hole situated at the nearby farm. There are UV filters in place as per regulations. Great tasting water, no chlorine here!Next to the oil fired range there is 4 burner gas hob which is fed from an LPG gas cylinderAs far as appliances go, there is a built-in Neff dishwasher and an under worktop Bosch fridge freezer. In front of the sink there is a large window which overlooks the patio, garden and fields in the valley beyond. There is also a door and behind the kitchen table which opens out on to the same.
