Two-bedroom barn conversion with modern insulation and underfloor heating
Highfield Barn is a recently renovated two-bedroom barn conversion set within an extensive rural holding of approximately seven acres (subject to survey). The house offers bright open-plan living, two double bedrooms with en suites, a study, and a sunny enclosed courtyard leading to a lawned garden. Modern environmental systems include a 7.2–7.5 kW solar array, 10.4 kW battery storage and air-source underfloor heating for low running costs.
The property’s major asset is the substantial crew yard and cluster of agricultural buildings arranged around a large gravel yard. Barns vary in size, age and construction (brick, block, timber, metal-clad and steel-framed) and include structures with single- and three-phase electricity, open pole barns and covered storage — useful for livestock, machinery, storage or specialist small-holding uses.
There is scope to increase living accommodation: an open-bay cart shed could potentially be incorporated, and further extension may be possible under permitted development rights (subject to confirmation and any necessary consents). Additional adjoining land is available by separate negotiation, offering expansion potential for grazing, equestrian or commercial uses.
Important practical points: the barn cluster is mixed in condition and will require ongoing maintenance, and some buildings may need adaptation or repair for new uses. The site is remote with only one immediate neighbour, so access to services and public transport is limited; broadband is fast but mobile signal is average. Any redevelopment or change of use will depend on planning and statutory consents.
