Hidden in a peaceful pocket of Warwickshire, this converted barn offers contemporary living across an extremely large 5-bedroom layout. The ground-floor principal suite, expansive open-plan living area with up to nine-metre ceilings, and generous glazing create a bright, dramatic social heart that opens directly to a terraced south-facing garden and natural swimming pool. High-spec eco fittings — photovoltaic panels, battery storage, two air-source heat pumps, underfloor heating and EV charging — reduce running costs and reflect the house’s recent, careful construction.
The plot is very large (circa half an acre) and landscaped with a small orchard, vegetable beds and mature planting, plus driveway parking, an integrated garage, two-car carport and workshop. Interior specification includes oak floors, bespoke kitchen with large pantry, a mezzanine principal sleeping area, three further en suites and a dedicated home office — well suited to family life or those working from home. A 10-year new build warranty (from 2022) provides additional reassurance.
Buyers should note material practicalities: council tax is high (Band G) and the wider area records above-average crime and relative area deprivation metrics. The property sits in a hamlet/isolated setting so private car access is essential; mobile and broadband are average. Overall, the house combines striking contemporary barn design and significant eco-credentials with a large garden and strong transport links to Birmingham and Birmingham International station.
