Set within a peaceful semi-rural village, The Dutch Barn is an individual ‘upside-down’ barn conversion offering spacious family living with characterful details. Four ground-floor bedrooms and two bathrooms provide practical accommodation, while the entire upper floor is dedicated to a vaulted open-plan lounge, kitchen and dining area – ideal for entertaining and family time around the oak kitchen and feature log-burner.
The property sits on a large secluded plot with elevated views over open green space and benefits from three/four off-street parking spaces. Retained features such as exposed beams, high ceilings and exposed brickwork create an authentic barn atmosphere. Utility arrangements are typical for a rural home (oil boiler, septic drainage) and there is a modest annual estate/service charge of around £300.
Buyers should note some important practical considerations: broadband is very slow, heating is oil-fired with radiators, and the building’s solid brick walls are assumed to be uninsulated. The home may be subject to Grade II listing confirmation, which could restrict alterations and require listed-building consent for future work. Prospective purchasers are advised to verify utilities, listing status, and council tax banding during due diligence.
This property will suit buyers seeking characterful countryside living within commuting reach of Tamworth and good local schools. It offers immediate charm and comfortable family accommodation, with potential to improve energy efficiency and technology provision if desired.
