A striking detached barn conversion set behind secure electric gates with very large grounds and uninterrupted countryside views. The house offers generous living space (c.2,256 sq ft) arranged over multiple floors, with a dramatic lounge centred on a feature fireplace and log burner that anchors the home.
Three double bedrooms each have their own en-suite, and the principal suite opens onto a private balcony/sun terrace — a quiet spot to enjoy the rural outlook. A detached double garage and cobbled courtyard deliver substantial parking and useful storage for vehicles and garden equipment.
Practical points to note: the kitchen footprint is compact for a house of this size and some rooms are presented with potential for alteration or modernisation to suit a contemporary family layout. The property sits in a semi‑rural hamlet with average mobile signal but fast broadband. Local crime rates are recorded as high and the wider area scores as deprived, which may concern some buyers despite the peaceful setting and very low council tax.
This home will suit buyers seeking a spacious, characterful country residence with scope to tailor living spaces. It is a rare offer for purchasers prioritising privacy, large grounds and multiple ensuite bedrooms, but those seeking an easy commute-to-town neighbourhood or a fully modernised turnkey kitchen may prefer to factor in updating or reconfiguration costs.
