Originally converted back in 2007, Owl Barn has since been totally renovated and updated. It is a light filled and characterful home in a very lovely setting. Stone and wood flooring, braced wooden doors and beams feature throughout.

The Barn is approached through a delightful, enclosed courtyard garden with the front door opening into a spacious entrance hall.

From the hall you enter the beautiful triple aspect open plan kitchen dining living room with feature stone fireplace, home to a wood burning stove at the western end, and a well appointed kitchen to the other. Two sets of French doors open up to both sides of the Barn.

Featuring painted wooden units beneath granite and hard wood worktops, the stylish kitchen accommodates a range cooker, integrated dishwasher and butlers sink.

Also off the hall is a cloakroom, a ground floor double bedroom with an en suite shower room which would equally well work as a study or family room.

The stairs rise to the first floor with an attractive and airy landing running the length of the Barn, leading to the four bedrooms and family bathroom. The principal bedroom features oak beams and a free standing double ended slipper bath and en suite. To the eastern end is a double bedroom with en suite shower room with two smaller bedrooms in between.

Outside, the grounds of Owl Barn are a further highlight of the property. The grassed area to the rear features a raised terrace which is a sun trap in summer months as the sun sets to the west. The south facing front garden is a more formally terraced courtyard design and beyond is a grassed open paddock. In total, Owl Barn sits on approximately 0.7 acres, however for those who are seeking more land to enjoy, a further 10 acres could be made available, subject to further discussion.
