House For Sale £975,000
Rural living with glorious views.
Description
Walnut Tree Barn is a delightful, Grade II listed barn converted in the late 1990s. As a result the property is in need of some modernisation, allowing the incoming purchaser the opportunity to put their own mark on this lovely home
The property commands an enviable rural setting with views to the south across open countryside.
The property is constructed of Hornton stone under a slate roof and offers about 2,200 sq ft (gia) of spacious, fairly open plan living accommodation over two levels. Internally it is light with large windows overlooking the gardens to the south. There is under floor heating throughout.
At the centre of the property is the spacious, double reception room with doors opening to the front, woodburning stove and principal staircase to the galleried landing above. The kitchen/breakfast room features built in pine base units with marble worksurfaces, flagstone floor and Rayburn. There is a study to the rear acting as a further bedroom with access to the cloaks/shower room.
The bedroom accommodation is split across the first floor with the principal and guest bedroom suites to the western end with vaulted ceilings and ample storage. There are two further bedrooms and shower room to the eastern end accessed off the secondary staircase from the kitchen and breakfast room.
Externally there are level, enclosed gardens predominately laid to lawn interspersed with various borders and beds, a number of trees including Walnut, Horse Chestnut and a variety of fruit trees. In addition there is a vegetable garden area, timber pergola, Wisteria, pond, a number of timber garden stores, summerhouse, Finnish barbeque hut and greenhouse.
To the front there is tarmac covered parking and turning area leading to a triple bay garage, steel roller and timber entrance doors with light and power connected. Attached is a useful store/workshop with light and power connected plus two open fronted log stores. In all about 0.75 acres.
In essence this is all about the rural setting; the views; the space and privacy; scope to modernise; a destination to escape urban life or the office; a home for a family; big skies and dark nights. It is a rare special gem.
