The property comes with a large double width double garage/workshop and a walled and cobbled garden to the rear.
Ground Floor
The entrance hall, which has oak engineered flooring and a large useful understairs storage cupboard, leads past the contemporary style cloakroom to sliding oak double doors into the sitting room and a further oak door to the kitchen/dining room. The sitting room is a large room with a feature brick fireplace and is open plan, via an opening, to the kitchen/dining room, creating a wonderful feeling of space and light. The dining area has a door to the garden and a gas stove and the kitchen area is fitted with a range of white high gloss units with zebrawood worksurfaces making a striking statement for this modern kitchen. There is an integrated Neff electric oven with gas hob and Bosch extractor, space for an American style fridge/freezer and space and plumbing for a dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer. This stylish kitchen area is complemented with slate flooring.
First Floor
There are three double bedrooms on the first floor, exposed floorboards throughout and the family bathroom which has been recently refitted. The master bedroom has built in wardrobes and a smart, also recently fitted, ensuite shower room.
Second Floor
The second floor room extends across the whole barn and although currently used as a playroom/cinema room it could easily be used as a fourth bedroom or a peaceful study, perfectly tucked away from the rest of the house. As well as three Velux skylights it has a built in storage cupboard, exposed oak timbers and a vaulted ceiling.
Outside
There is a shared courtyard to the front of the property with a block paved path leading out to the oversized double garage which has a vaulted ceiling and is currently being used as a gymnasium and storage space.
