Combining charming character with modern living arrangements, this fine home is ideal for family life or those that like to entertain, with its large open plan rooms that open out into the garden from much of the ground floor. Hidden away behind the gated entrance and down a long gravelled tree lined driveway, a second five bar gate opens into the private grounds of Preston Barn.
Internally, a spacious entrance hall with boot room and access to an inner hall opens into the ground floor accommodation. Benefitting from natural light from two sets of French doors opening up onto the patio area is the fully vaulted sitting room with access to the study/bedroom four and ground floor shower room; an ideal spot for guests or to be utilised as an annexe wing. To the other end of the property is a wonderful country kitchen/breakfast room, with a feature fireplace and space for a large kitchen table. Opposite is a useful utility room with further storage as well as a separate cloakroom. Further down the hall is the impressive dining room, a great sized room ideal for large dinner parties, with a set of French doors offering views over the pond, gardens and the church backdrop.
A galleried landing with sky lights gives access to three bedrooms and two family bathrooms. Of note, is the impressive vaulted ceiling and exposed beams in the principal room.
