The property
The Barn is an attractive red brick and part-black-and-white timbered family home offering almost 2,300 sq. ft. of sensitively modernised accommodation arranged over two floors. The ground floor accommodation flows from a welcoming entrance hall with useful cloakroom and includes a large sitting room with feature exposed brick chimney breast with a gas fire and French doors opening to both the front and rear terraces, as well as a generous dining room. There is also a spacious kitchen/breakfast room with a range of contemporary wall and base units including a generous central breakfast bar, wooden worktops, modern integrated appliances and a seating area. A neighbouring fitted utility room and a well- roportioned study complete the ground floor facilities.
The first floor has a spacious vaulted principal bedroom with modern en suite cloakroom, four additional bedrooms, all with timber-clad ceilings, a spacious contemporary family bathroom with freestanding bath and separate walk-in shower and a modern family shower room.
Outside
Having plenty of kerb appeal, the property is approached over a gravelled driveway offering private parking for multiple vehicles and giving access to the double garage, flanked by an area of level lawn bordered by mature shrubs and a raised sun terrace offering far-reaching views over the property’s stabling, paddocks and surrounding countryside. The low-maintenance communal rear garden is gravelled and paved and features a parterre garden with mature topiary and shrubs and a generous private paved terrace, ideal for entertaining and al fresco dining. Double five-bar gates opposite the driveway open to a further gravelled seating and parking area, giving access to a timber stable block with three loose boxes, a store and hardstanding and to 2.6 acres of stock- enced paddocks, the whole enjoying panoramic views over surrounding countryside.
