Description

Barn Cottage is a delightful detached home full of character, enjoying views towards the village’s historic Grade I Listed church. The house displays attractive stone and red-brick elevations, while inside exposed timber beams complement bright, flexible accommodation arranged across three bedrooms and three reception rooms.

The lower ground level of the house centres on a spacious open-plan kitchen and sitting area. The kitchen benefits from a double-height vaulted ceiling and a tall gable-end window that fills the space with natural light. It is fitted with modern shaker-style units, a butler sink, range cooker and breakfast bar. The adjoining sitting area offers a comfortable space for relaxation, with a stone-built fireplace fitted with a log burner and French doors opening directly on to the garden.

Much of the remaining accommodation is arranged on the upper ground floor. This includes two additional reception rooms, a sitting room and a snug, together with a secondary kitchen with fitted units and integrated appliances, which can also serve as a utility room.

All three bedrooms are located on this level. The generous principal bedroom enjoys a triple aspect that brings in abundant light, along with a vaulted ceiling and a fireplace with a log burner. One bedroom is positioned above the lower kitchen and sitting area and benefits from a similar gable-end window that opens as a Juliet balcony, together with its own en suite bathroom. A family bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms.

At the entrance to the property, twin five-bar wooden gates open on to a gravel driveway, providing ample parking to the front and side of the house. A secondary access at the rear offers additional parking space.

The gardens lie mainly to the rear of the property and enjoy a southwest-facing aspect, ensuring sunshine throughout much of the day. They include a sheltered patio area ideal for al fresco dining, with a generous lawn beyond bordered by mature trees and well-established hedgerows. Additionally, the Wash House includes an external WC and a laundry area, while a wooden garage provides useful additional storage.
