Manor Barn is a stunning individual character conversion which has been sympathetically renovated by the current vendors who have placed a great deal of thought and attention to detail at the initial design stage creating a truly fascinating and deceptive family orientated home which approaches 3400 sq ft.

The internal accommodation is particularly versatile and would lend itself to large or extended families as its offers a potential annexe area with its own entrance and bathroom, perfect for teenagers, elderly relatives or guest suite. In total there are up to five double bedrooms and three receptions, three bathrooms, two ground floor cloakrooms plus useful ancillary receptions located in the eaves above the annexe and garage, but the heart of the home is undoubtedly the superb open plan living/dining kitchen which links through into the addition of an oak framed garden room which floods this area with light and benefits from delightful aspect into the rear garden, paddocks and Vale countryside beyond.

Internally the property offers a wealth of character and features with heavily beamed ceilings, deep skirting and cottage latch ledge and brace doors, beautiful inglenook fireplace to the main reception and many of the rooms offering dual aspects making use of its east to west aspect.

As well as the main living accommodation there is also a substantial utility room with second cloakroom off and attached double garage which is situated to the side of the annexe area and, subject to any necessary consents, could offer scope for additional conversion.

The property occupies a wonderful setting close to the edge of this highly regarded and pretty Vale of Belvoir village with aspect across to the village church, occupying a plot which approaches 0.6 of an acre, set well back from the lane behind gated frontage which leads on to a sweeping circular gravelled driveway providing considerable off road parking as well as a double garage.

The rear garden is a delightful feature affording wonderful open aspect to the rear across adjacent paddocks, Vale countryside and Belvoir Castle on the horizon. The garden is well stocked with established trees and shrubs, pleasant seating areas with access back into the main receptions creating a wonderful outdoor entertaining space.
