Inside

Welcome to Barn Cottage, aptly named given its earlier origins as an agricultural barn and now enjoying a delightful setting within a walled garden and offering considerable flexibility with the accommodation having bedrooms on both the ground and first floors.

The ENTRANCE HALL is an inviting space with stairs leading to the first floor and its timber beams a reminder of its former existence. A useful SHOWER ROOM has a contemporary finish with its modern shower cubicle, tiled flooring, and vanity unit including a wash-hand basin and WC. Adjacent, is a further room currently used as a STUDY. Timber flooring leads through to the SITTING ROOM, a delightful room flooded with light and stylishly presented with windows framing the garden view beyond. Offset from this room is a DINING ROOM, where is located a walk-in store with the hot water cylinder, and also a cupboard housing the gas-fired boiler.

The KITCHEN has a range of timber-fronted units in a ‘U’ shaped formation with provides considerable storage, and also space and plumbing for a dishwasher and washing-machine. There is also a range cooker with overhead extractor, and space for a tall fridge/freezer. A tiled floor adds a practical note, as does the door leading directly to the garden.

At the opposite end of the ground floor is the PRINCIPAL BEDROOM with its own DRESSING ROOM: wonderfully bright and spacious and having mirror-fronted built-in wardrobes and dressing table.

From the hallway, stairs rise to the FIRST FLOOR and its exposed ceiling beams add immense character. There are THREE DOUBLE BEDROOMS on this floor, one of which has one wall entirely fitted with built-in storage and further walk-in cupboard. The FAMILY BATHROOM is neatly fitted with a bath, close-coupled WC and wash-hand basin.

Outside

A particular feature of this intriguing home is the walled rear garden: a surprise which will delight any gardener. A paved patio area provides an easy spot for entertaining and the remainder is currently laid to lawn bordered by shrubbery. It is the perfect canvass for the green-fingered! On a practical note, there is also a SINGLE GARAGE.
