This unique Grade II barn conversion spans some 4000 sq. ft, with the original barn dating back to the 17th centery and offers a truly exceptional living space. Let’s focus on the main reception area, which is nothing short of stunning. This open-plan living and dining space is beautifully proportioned, with a striking fireplace that offers some separation between the two areas. To give you a sense of scale, this room extends to around 50 feet in length, providing plenty of room for both relaxation and entertaining.

The double-height void above is truly magnificent. You’ll find yourself pausing to take in the full scale of the space – it’s a feature that makes a real impact.
The exposed timbers add a great sense of character and warmth to the room, and looking up, you'll notice the mezzanine-style music & library room. From here, you can overlook the living area, providing a unique and inviting perspective when welcoming guests or simply enjoying the view.

The flexibility of the floor plan is one of the standout features of the home. With several reception spaces, bedrooms and bathrooms on the ground floor, you have the opportunity to adapt and use the spaces as your lifestyle changes. Whether you need a home office, additional bedrooms, or places for guests, this layout offers endless possibilities. The accommodation currently offers five or six bedrooms, depending on how you choose to configure the rooms. The inclusion of the large workshop and Soundproof studio space further enhances the options available.
Upstairs, you’ll find three double bedrooms. Two of these rooms feature beautiful exposed timbers, creating a warm and charming atmosphere – ideal for children or guests. The master suite, however, is a real highlight. It’s spacious, with a generous bedroom, a bathroom that feels like its own retreat, and a walk-in dressing room that provides ample storage and functionality.

Externally, the property sits on a plot that wraps around the barn, offering both privacy and space. The long frontage and driveway parking to the front and side provide plenty of room for vehicles, while the enclosed south-facing garden at the rear is both secure and peaceful. A large terrace area is perfect for outdoor dining or relaxing, and the barn’s wings provide shelter and create a lovely backdrop for the garden.
