Thurston is a spacious, sensitively converted 19th-century barn offering nearly 3,000 sq ft of family-friendly accommodation in the sought-after village of Kingsdon. The house balances original Cotswold stone character and exposed timbers with contemporary finishes, featuring a dramatic entrance hall, large dual-aspect sitting room with multi‑fuel burner, and an expansive 34' x 22' kitchen/dining room designed for entertaining and everyday family life.
The principal suite and three further double bedrooms sit off a galleried landing, with three stylish bathrooms and generous built-in storage. Recent high‑quality renovation provides engineered oak floors, bespoke joinery, a four‑door electric Aga and modern utility provisions; a large loft offers scope for further accommodation subject to consents. Outside, landscaped gardens, several terraces, a double garage with mezzanine storage, gated drive and ample private parking complete the picture.
Practical points to note: heating is oil‑fired via boiler and radiators (not a mains gas system), broadband speeds in the area are slow, and the property sits in Council Tax band F (expensive). The building is stone-built and pre-1900; wall insulation is not confirmed and further insulation works may be advisable for long-term energy efficiency. These facts should be weighed against the property’s scale, finish and village location.
For families seeking a substantial, characterful home with generous entertaining space and landscaped grounds in a thriving village, Thurston presents an attractive, well‑finished option with clear potential for buyers prepared to address heating and insulation considerations.
