This single-storey stone barn conversion sits in peaceful Whashton and will suit someone seeking low-maintenance, rural living close to Richmond. The property retains rustic character—exposed stonework, arched windows and traditional tiles—paired with an open-plan living-kitchen and a double bedroom with fitted wardrobes. Large, walled gardens and cobbled parking provide private outdoor space and expansive countryside views.
Practical details are straightforward: freehold tenure, mains water/electricity/drainage, off-street parking and a cheap council tax band B. The accommodation is compact (approximately 901 sq ft) and arranged on one level, making it easy to manage and move around.
Notable points to consider: heating is provided by an oil-fired boiler with radiators and there is evidence that the stone walls may be uninsulated. The Energy Performance Certificate is to be confirmed, so upgrading insulation or heating could be needed to improve energy efficiency. The location is remote by design—very low crime and beautiful views—but local services are limited and the nearest towns are several miles away.
Overall, this property will appeal to downsizers or couples wanting a characterful, single-storey home with generous gardens and strong countryside appeal, provided they are comfortable with rural living and potential energy upgrades.
