Gable End is an impressive 18th-century barn conversion set within a discreet village setting and an expansive 0.5-acre plot. Lovingly extended and upgraded by the current owners, the property offers over 2,800 sq ft of versatile family accommodation with immediate countryside and paddock views. The house blends genuine period character — exposed timbers, leaded windows and a galleried landing — with modern comforts such as underfloor heating throughout and generous reception spaces.
The ground floor layout is exceptionally flexible: formal dining, large reception lounge with stove, a fitted Shaker-style kitchen with granite surfaces, substantial utility room and a recent sunroom extension with bifolding doors onto a wide patio. There is a useful ground-floor bedroom/snug and multiple reception rooms that suit family life, working from home or formal entertaining. Upstairs the principal bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite; two further double bedrooms and additional bathrooms complete the sleeping accommodation.
Externally the mature, private grounds and two separate driveway entrances are major assets. A double garage block with potential to extend to four bays, a large brick store, and a second gated driveway off School Lane provide generous parking for caravans, horseboxes or work vehicles. The courtyard is owned by the property but shared access and joint maintenance obligations exist for other courtyard homes — worth noting for future upkeep responsibilities.
Practical points to consider: the building is solid brick and dates from before 1900, so it is assumed to have no cavity insulation in parts; heating is oil-fired to radiators (and not a community supply). Broadband speeds are average despite excellent mobile signal. Council tax is currently high (Band F). Overall, Gable End will best suit buyers seeking a substantial, characterful family home on a large private plot who are comfortable with older construction particulars and running costs.
