House For Sale £1,500,000
Barn Cottage, we understand, dates back to the 1600s and was formerly the village barn. Since then it has been used as two cottages and also as the village post office. In latter years the property was converted into a single dwelling.
The house is full of character with many exposed wall and ceiling beams, most of which are more prevalent in the original barn.
The house is approached into the reception hall which then leads down into the kitchen/breakfast room. The drawing room is a feature of the house, full of character with the open fireplace and then the study off. Within the more modern part of the house is the vaulted family room with a wood burner and of note off this is the Hampton conservatory, taking full advantage of the afternoon sun and the outlook onto the gardens.
The principal suite comprises of a bedroom and good sized dressing room with a shower room off. In addition are three further bedrooms and a family bathroom.
On the northern boundaries of the property is the barn style garaging comprising two open bays with a machinery store. Set in an elevated setting is an oak clad summer house with a wooden decking to the front, from where the distant southerly views can be enjoyed. In addition is a greenhouse and some garden sheds.
Barn Cottage is approached up a tarmacadam driveway into a large turning area and parking spaces around the garage. Wrought iron gates and steps lead down onto the gravel pathway, leading down to the house. The gardens are a feature of the property with many well-stocked flower and shrub borders, mature roses, clipped hedges, rhododendrons and azaleas.
Off the kitchen is a terraced area to enjoy the morning sun, whilst on the southern side is a York stone terrace abutting the conservatory and front door. On the front elevation is a mature wisteria and in addition is a magnolia. The garden has been beautifully maintained and the boundaries are defined by hedges, offering a wonderful degree of privacy. There is also a hidden compost area.
