Description

Once the working stables of a historic farmstead, The Old Stables has been transformed into a striking contemporary home. Vaulted oak beams, full-height glazing and landscaped garden by Acres Wild create a rare balance of heritage and modern design. The property enjoys a delightful position in the hamlet of East Sutton, just over a mile east of the pretty village of Sutton Valence.

This Grade II curtilage-listed property forms part of a small collection of traditional farm buildings. The conversion, undertaken by Cox Restorations, preserves the integrity of the oak-framed structure while introducing stylish contemporary interiors and modern fixtures and fittings.

At its heart is a dramatic vaulted living/dining space with exposed beams, a wood-burning stove and full-height glazing to the east elevation, bringing the garden into the home. The bespoke fitted kitchen, equipped with a Smeg range and integrated appliances, completes the open-plan setting.

Two vaulted bedrooms each have contemporary en suites, finished with artisan tiling and beautiful sanitaryware by Hansgrohe, Crosswater and Adamsez bath.

Specification highlights include underfloor heating with individual thermostatic controls, hardwood and aluminium double-glazed windows, Cat 6 wiring, and FTTP fibre broadband being installed. The property is sold with a 10 year AHCI new homes warranty and an Architect's Certificate.

Outside, there are terraces to the east and west for morning and evening sun, together with a substantial attached barn providing two open parking bays with EV Car Charger, a lockable workshop/bike store and a separate bin store.
