Large, characterful detached home with huge plot and scope to improve.
Chain-free three-bedroom detached barn conversion
Set in the peaceful hamlet of Compton, this three-bedroom detached barn conversion sits on a very large plot with far-reaching countryside views. The open-plan ground floor, exposed stone walls and rustic beams give immediate character, while the mezzanine, walk-in pantry and utility space add practical everyday living. A south-facing garden, garage and driveway parking for three cars suit family life and outdoor entertaining.
The house is a period property of substantial size (approx. 2,577 sq ft) and offers flexible accommodation across two floors: three double bedrooms, three bathrooms, an office/airing room and generous reception space. Modern comforts include double glazing, FTTP broadband and a recently installed oil boiler (2017). The setting is very quiet, with very low local crime and easy access to nearby towns and good local schools.
Buyers should note material issues that affect running costs and future works. The stone walls are assumed uninsulated and the property is heated by oil, so improving thermal performance may be necessary. There is a long-term flood risk for the area and mobile signal is poor, which could affect some householders. Council tax is above average.
This chain-free home is best for a buyer seeking character and space in a semi-rural location with scope to enhance energy efficiency and internal finishes. With a large plot and garage, the property presents clear potential for sympathetic improvement to match modern family living while retaining its historic charm.
