The Old Granary is a generous Grade II listed barn conversion set in a quiet hamlet near Broadwoodwidger. Stone walls, high ceilings and triple-aspect reception space give immediate character; a south-facing lawn, courtyard and mature planting create private outdoor rooms. The property offers four bedrooms, three bathrooms and flexible living across upper and lower ground floors, plus plentiful gravel parking for three to four cars.
A single-storey octagonal kitchen-dining wing, under-floor-heated stone floor and a multi-fuel stove are standout features for country living. Behind the house a cluster of outbuildings and an open historic barn provide useful storage and real development potential subject to planning consents. Broadband and mobile signal are strong and crime levels are very low.
Buyers should note material constraints: the Grade II listing will restrict alterations and may complicate conversion of outbuildings. Heating is by an oil-fired boiler with private drainage, and the open barn requires refurbishment. The property sits down an unmetalled private lane in a remote agricultural community — idyllic but with limited local services. Overall, this is a characterful family home for someone who values rural living and who is comfortable managing listed-building responsibilities and rural utilities.
