Additional Information - The skilful residential conversion of a traditional barn was carried out in 1991 with full consideration given to the property's agricultural history. Along with its mellow bricks and pantile roof, a number of authentic features were restored including exposed ceiling beams and the original barn doorway. Additional character has been added through the fitting of handsome fireplaces, floorboards and traditional column radiators, as well as bespoke timber sash windows, panelled single and double doors, a turning staircase and elegant wall panelling all of which were handcrafted by Peter Thompson of York. Throughout the owners' long tenure, the house has been updated and maintained; in the last few years, the kitchen and bathrooms have all been upgraded.
On the northern elevation is the striking main entrance with a glazed front door and surrounding glass panels that bring natural light into the double-height hallway. The kitchen breakfast room has French doors facing west towards the parking area and barn. The kitchen itself includes a large island unit with breakfast bar, a 4-oven oil-fired Aga, integrated appliances and ample space for a family-sized table and comfortable seating area; alongside is a separate utility room and pantry. Beyond lies the magnificent galleried dining room with engineered delete oak floorboards, an open fire and oversized, barn-style, glazed doors that open south to the sunny courtyard garden. Double doors can be opened to the drawing room creating a 40 ft room ideal for large scale entertaining. The traditional drawing room has a fine stone fireplace housing a wood-burning stove and French doors that also give access to the courtyard garden. On the southern wing lies the pool house, fully glazed to one side with three sets of French doors opening west to the sheltered central courtyard. It has a 30 ft heated swimming pool and jacuzzi alongside a sitting area ideal for gym equipment. The changing room is in the style of a beach hut, shower room with wc and plant room holding the dedicated boiler.
The one-bedroom annexe sits on the northern wing of the house and provides self-contained living accommodation. It has its own entrance and private courtyard garden accessed through a garden wall on the main drive. Its kitchen and bathroom were fitted in 2019.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom suite is accessed from the central landing. It has a bespoke dressing room, separate bathroom and a west facing window giving far-reaching views. The first floor bedrooms are all doubles, and are served by a house bathroom (fitted 2023) that includes a walk-in power shower, hand-basin unit, wc and heated towel rail.
Outside - The long, tree-lined, tarmacadamed drive is accessed from New Road and shared with two other properties. In front of the house, it broadens to a sweeping gravel drive that terminates in front of the garages, passing lawned gardens with colourful shrubs and a small orchard. The house enjoys a private position and is orientated to face the barn, manège and paddocks. Clipped high hedges abound, surrounding many of the paddocks, offering shelter and creating visual enjoyment all year round. At the centre of the house is a courtyard garden which is a sheltered sun-trap and beautifully landscaped with brick setts, paved terraces, areas of gravel, raised beds, ornamental trees and colourful shrubs.
