Set in a tranquil hamlet, this Grade II listed linhay conversion combines roomy, characterful living with thoughtful modern systems. The principal bedroom occupies the former hay loft, with exposed timbers, a dressing room and a large en suite — a private suite that feels removed from the other three double bedrooms grouped in a separate wing. The heart of the house is a magnificent galleried dining hall ideal for entertaining, plus a large sitting room with a wood burner for cosy evenings.
The bespoke kitchen includes integrated Siemens appliances and engineered oak flooring; additional living space comprises a second lounge/TV room, a generous study and a utility/boot room. Practical features include an air source heat pump with underfloor heating throughout, a shared sewage treatment plant, a double oak-framed open garage and a generous gravel courtyard with an adjacent established garden.
Buyers should note the property’s listed status — while it protects charm and historic fabric, it also restricts alterations and can complicate maintenance. Broadband speeds are very slow and the house sits in a remoter agricultural area, so commuting and connectivity considerations are important despite reasonable motorway and rail access. Council tax is high (Band F), and the drainage is a shared sewage system with the neighbour.
This is a substantial, highly finished rural family home for buyers who value original timbers, generous entertaining spaces and modern running costs. It will suit those wanting a distinctive country house where some upkeep and listed-building consent considerations are expected.
