Characterful two-bed barn with private garden and parking in tranquil village.
Grade II listed barn conversion c.1800 with extensive exposed timbers
Longstraw Barn is a striking Grade II listed barn conversion dating from c.1800, set in the heart of picturesque Ickham. The conversion retains abundant character—vaulted ceilings, exposed timber, wooden floors and a thatched roof—while providing spacious, flexible living across approximately 1,450 sq ft. Ground-floor living includes a generous kitchen/breakfast room and a large sitting room with glazed doors opening to the garden; bedrooms and two shower rooms sit across two levels alongside a study.
Externally the fully enclosed, well-stocked walled garden offers a variety of seating areas, a greenhouse and attractive borders. Practical benefits include a private car port, extra courtyard parking and a large shared turning area. The property is chain-free, on freehold tenure, has gas central heating, double glazing and an EPC rating of 71 (C).
Important practical notes: the building’s Grade II listed status will restrict alterations and may complicate maintenance and planning works. The thatched roof and period fabric will require specialist upkeep. Council tax sits in Band E, and access is via a shared courtyard. This home suits buyers seeking a characterful, low-density village residence who are comfortable with listed building responsibilities.
