High Oaks Barn is a substantial barn conversion set within approximately 1.53 acres in the semi‑rural village of Kimpton. The house offers about 2,636 sq ft of living space with generous reception rooms, a large kitchen/breakfast room and four double bedrooms, two of which include dressing rooms and en suites. A gated entrance and sweeping gravel driveway provide privacy and an impressive arrival sequence.
The setting will suit families or buyers seeking space and countryside living with convenient access to Harpenden, Wheathampstead and local train stations. Local schools include several highly rated primary and secondary options, and the property sits in a low‑crime, affluent area offering peaceful rural views and established landscaping around the house.
Practical details: the home is freehold, heated via an air‑source heat pump with underfloor electric heating, and runs on electricity as the main fuel. Council Tax sits in Band G, which is notable for running costs. Broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow and mobile signal is average — factors to consider for home working or heavy streaming needs.
The conversion retains rustic character with exposed beams and timber cladding while presenting large, modern living spaces. Buyers should note typical maintenance and running costs for a large detached property on a substantial plot, and check service details for the heating system and insulation performance if energy efficiency is a priority.
