‘Long Barn’ is a striking, modern barn conversion, completed in 2020. The property has been cleverly designed to provide uninterrupted views of the surrounding Kent countryside. Upon arrival, via the automated gates, you are struck by the peace and tranquillity the plot offers.
Crossing the threshold into the entrance hall, the space is flooded with light from the floor to ceiling picture window overlooking a walled courtyard with a feature waterfall that is lit up at night, providing an atmospheric oasis of calm. The courtyard is accessed from the kitchen, making this an ideal space for al-fresco dining and entertaining.
At the end of the hall, you will find a most impressive living area. A true feature of this fine home with high, vaulted ceilings and wall to wall bi-folding doors, continuing the theme of light and space throughout and providing unobstructed views of the neighbouring orchard and farmland beyond. This is an incredible space which is perfect for the whole family to enjoy.
A stylish kitchen features a large lantern style skylight and bi-fold doors, allowing light to flood the space. There are two double Bosch Ovens and one Bosch microwave. Built in dishwasher, induction hob, one fridge freezer and another larder fridge. The bi-fold doors lead you right into the zen Courtyard.
The opposite ‘wing’ of Long Barn houses five double bedrooms. The largest bedroom has been altered to provide an extravagant, walk-in wardrobe which creates a principal bedroom suite complete with a well-appointed en-suite shower room. The room comfortably houses a ‘California King’ bed with more than enough space remaining.
Additionally, there is a sumptuous family bathroom. A luxurious space with freestanding bath and separate shower, the theme of light continues here with another, large lantern skylight.
There is a handy utility room with rear access for those muddy boots along with a guest cloakroom.
Externally, there is a large gravel driveway, with room for several cars. The garden is laid to lawn for ease with a large, flagstone patio which is accessed from the living space, providing yet another space for entertaining in the warmer months.
Planning Permission has been granted to erect a detached single-story garage, store and studio which would be ideal for home working or home studio.
The charming nearby village of Preston is home to The Church of St. Mildred, Copper Bistro, The Half Moon and Seven Stars public house, a village shop, a butchers and a primary school. Preston is surrounded by some beautiful countryside which is ideal for walking, cycling and riding, whilst the nearby Stodmarsh Nature Reserve is home to many species of migrating birds and wildlife.
