"A bright and contemporary Cotswold stone barn conversion situated within a generous plot of about three acres including stables and paddocks.

Description

In a highly sought after position, overlooking the beautiful village of Chedworth, this Cotswold stone barn has been skilfully converted to a very high standard. The house and its expansive grounds offers fantastic scope for equestrian use, with the surrounding area providing excellent outriding and access to competition and training venues. The barn itself has been transformed into a stylish and well proportioned residence, featuring light filled interiors with large windows, elements of natural wood and stone, a neutral colour palette and contemporary fittings, all complementing the original features of the barn such as high vaulted ceilings and exposed beams. From all sides there are commanding views over the property s own land and the valley below.

The 1600 sq ft of accommodation is well planned and comprises a magnificent sitting room with wood burning stove, an open plan and well appointed kitchen and dining room to the rear, and a bedroom with an en suite jack and jill style shower room which could equally be used as a study or separate reception room. Upstairs there are two generous double bedrooms, both with built in storage, and a further bath shower room.

Outside
The Barn is approached via a private lane, leading up to a gated gravel driveway which is walled by traditional drystone walls to the front, which, combined with the elevated setting, allow unobstructed far reaching views across the valley. To the front of the house, a detached barn garage and carport provides covered parking and storage.

The gardens are attractively landscaped including a paved terrace to the side of the house accessed via the kitchen dining family room, with a wonderfully secluded setting that makes it perfect for entertaining. Steps lead up to a second paved terrace enveloped by the lawned gardens. These lead onto the expansive paddocks, which extend to approximately three acres and can be accessed via a separate track. In addition there is a freestanding field shelter, a stable block with three stables and a tack room, plus an additional feed store. The acreage is well suited to equestrian use, with a network of byways and bridleways directly accessible from the property providing excellent hacking.
