A substantial seven-bedroom detached barn conversion set in expansive grounds with dedicated equestrian facilities and sweeping rural views. The stone-built farmhouse blends exposed beams, floor-to-ceiling windows and modernised fittings to deliver generous family living over multiple storeys. At about 7,412 sq ft, reception rooms are large and flexible, anchored by an open-plan living area with a central AGA and a decorative cast-iron spiral staircase.
Outside, professionally maintained paddocks, a cobbled courtyard and a sizeable stable block with multiple loose boxes provide practical accommodation for horses and significant scope for owners who keep livestock or enjoy country pursuits. Mature trees, well-established boundaries and a pond enhance privacy and the elevated site affords panoramic countryside vistas. The plot is huge, offering potential for additional landscaping or ancillary uses subject to consents.
The property is modernised yet retains period character: stone walls, timber beams, natural stone floors and bespoke fittings. Heating is by oil-fired boiler with underfloor heating; double glazing was installed post-2002. Practical considerations include oil fuel dependency, very slow broadband, and the upkeep and running costs associated with large grounds and equestrian buildings. Council tax is described as very expensive and tenure information is not supplied.
This house will suit a family or equestrian buyer seeking privacy, space and high-spec rural living rather than an urban commuter reliant on fast broadband. Viewings recommended for those wanting a turnkey country estate with genuine scope for outdoor and equestrian lifestyle use.
