POPLAR BARN is a comprehensively refurbished and enlarged barn-style dwelling situated in this lovely village setting which enjoys mature surroundings and open countryside views. This stylish country residence is highly individual and unique in many ways with its superbly proportioned living accommodation benefitting from its complete overhaul, with an impeccable interior presenting itself as if a brand new build.

The front door opens into a spacious entrance hall where a cloakroom sits to one side and a utility room is also accessed. This hallway leads into a central reception area where doors leads off to the principal ground floor accommodation, stairs rise to the first floor and a large storage cupboard is set to one side. There are two excellent reception rooms, with the sitting room being a beautifully proportioned living space having full-height windows on two sides drawing in good amounts of natural light, whilst a second reception room has a window overlooking surrounding gardens and provides perfect space for a family room, although could be incorporated to as an office which is ideal for those who work from home. The kitchen/family room is a particular stand-out feature with a combination of full-height glazed panels, glazed doors and windows placed on three sides of the room, all looking out across surrounding and creating superbly bright interior space with the room flooded by natural light. The kitchen itself is extremely well appointed with a range of storage cupboards in contrasting shades complemented by Quartz worktops and a large central island which incorporates a breakfast bar. As you would expect, there are a range of integrated appliances including Quooker tap, double oven, dishwasher, fridge-freezer and induction hob with extractor fan over. The kitchen floor is laid with luxury vinyl tiles in a herringbone pattern with an attractive wood effect and this continues through much of the ground floor living area.

Upstairs, the first floor landing leads to 4 bedrooms; the master featuring its own en suite shower room, bedroom 2 also has the benefit of an en suite shower room, both of which are in addition to the principal family bathroom which contains a 3-piece suite.

OUTSIDE, from the initial entrance driveway, an automated 5-bar gate opens onto a long and sweeping driveway which brings you to the property and an extensive parking area with space for numerous vehicles. The gardens themselves extend around the property making the very most of its south-westerly aspect, laid out predominantly to lawn and with a variety of established trees which complement the more recently planted saplings. A large timber deck provides ideal space for outside entertaining and this continues around to both sides of the property. The grounds themselves, in total, extend to about one acre and really do complement this excellent property perfectly.

Extensive PV array over flat roof, 2 x batteries, 2 x Samsung ASHP for heating, solar inverter for hot water, 2 x EVCPs (all linked to app) - all of which combine to create an eco friendly and energy efficient home.
