Meadow Barn is a spacious three-bedroom semi-detached barn conversion set in a peaceful Oughterside location, ideal for families seeking countryside living. The house balances rustic character—exposed beams, vaulted first-floor lounge and a multi-fuel stove—with large, practical living spaces including a generous kitchen, utility and three reception rooms. The cottage-style gardens with summerhouse and parking for several cars complete a picture of comfortable rural life.
The property has practical modern touches: double glazing, an oil-fired boiler with radiator heating, and owned solar panels that currently generate a quarterly reimbursement (reported between £200–£800 depending on season). Rooms are light and well-proportioned across about 1,586 sq ft, with family-friendly proximity to a local primary school and other well-rated schools in the area.
Important practical points: the building dates from the early 20th century and external walls are stone (assumed uninsulated), so buyers should factor in energy performance and potential upgrade work. The mains fuel is oil (not a community supply) and some fittings and appliances have not been tested; a full survey is strongly recommended. The village setting offers low crime and fast broadband, but mobile signal is average and the location is relatively remote, which may suit countryside buyers more than those seeking urban convenience.
Overall this is a characterful, roomy family home with good garden and parking provision, clear potential to personalise and improve energy efficiency. It will suit buyers looking for a peaceful village base with generous internal and external space, provided they budget for ongoing maintenance and modernisation where desired.
