House For Sale £519,950
Totally unique and charming barn conversion with pleasant South facing garden. Showcasing aged features from a former life as a hay barn, the property was converted 25 years ago with modern levels of floor, wall and ceiling insulation, underfloor heating, a green oak mezzanine, and bristles with flagstone, granite and marble.
Deceptively spacious accommodation centres around an open plan living room with the galleried wow-factor mezzanine, log burner, Aga, and full width opening to kitchen breakfast room. Twin staircases rise with spindled balustrades leading to the two bedrooms with cloakroom off. There's also a splendid bathroom and office on the ground floor, and the landscaped garden faces South and benefits from an useful al-fresco entertainment area. Ridge Barn forms part of the former Henfield Business park, now comprising offices and one other residential property behind secure electric gates, and therefore the property benefits from a high degree of privacy. For a beautiful, yet flexible space which you can tweak to your own specific format, look no further!
