A very welcoming attached village home carefully converted from a range of former period barns by ha and db Kitchen. Features of note include a stunning vaulted sitting room with exposed beams together with a ‘Minstrels’ gallery’. This is a magnificent room extending to 25’5/7.7m with a beautiful Inglenook fireplace, perfect for both entertaining and relaxation. The dining hall is a wonderful and very flexible open plan space with a fine outlook over the terrace to the garden beyond. The bespoke kitchen/breakfast room (with an adjoining utility room) has a range of cabinets, sink, integrated dishwasher and a gas/electric range by Aga. The living accommodation is complemented by four bedrooms with en-suites to the principal and guest bedroom as well as a separate family bathroom. Of note, there is lovely ‘Minstrels’ gallery’ set above the sitting room. This space has been used as an occasional additional bedroom and study. There are areas of garden to the front and rear with external doors from the dining hall, utility room and one of the bedrooms. The overall flexibility of the accommodation has been enhanced with the addition of several very useful additional outbuildings including a studio (ideal for guests and or home office/hobby room) and also a very well positioned summer house and garden room. Importantly, the overall efficiency of the house is also improved with solar panels for power generation.

There is an ideally positioned summer house and an area of decking within this area of the garden, providing a further outdoor entertaining area, and garden room. A pergola adorned by climbing plants anchors this area of the garden together with a paved pathway to a further gated area with a 20’5/6.2m mower shed and compost area.
