Barnside is a substantial five-bedroom semi-detached home formed from two original cottages, set on a large plot with far-reaching rural views. The house blends original stone walls, exposed beams and flagged stone floors with practical modern fittings — a generous open-plan kitchen/diner, utility, downstairs WC and an en-suite to the master make it well suited to family life and entertaining. The double integral garage, off-road parking and tiered landscaped gardens (with outside kitchen and mains services) add useful everyday convenience and outdoor living potential.
The property’s character is a key strength: natural stone, wooden beams and a multifunctional open-plan heart with a multifuel stove create a warm, authentic atmosphere. Five good-sized bedrooms and flexible living spaces give scope for a home office, snug or playroom. The plot and views make this attractive for buyers wanting semi-rural living within reach of local schools and town amenities.
Buyers should note a few material points: the house is an older stone build (pre-1900) and walls are assumed to be uninsulated, which can increase heating demand despite gas central heating. The EPC is band D. Broadband speeds are reported as very slow, which may affect home-working without a dedicated solution. The wider area shows local deprivation indicators and average crime levels; consider this in relation to services and resale expectations.
Overall, Barnside offers significant period character, generous space and strong outdoor amenities for families or buyers seeking a countryside-feel home. Practical improvements (insulation, EPC upgrades and faster internet) could enhance comfort and long-term running costs, while the double garage and large garden are immediate everyday benefits.
