The gardens are laid out to lawn with trees, shrubs and patios with a further large hard standing area providing further parking facilities. The property adjoins further farmland and it is possible that the paddock to the rear could be leased or possibly purchased. This impressive barn was originally converted approximately 20 years ago with great care being taken to retain the original charm and character. Features of particular note are the beams in the older section of the property which have been dated between 1550 and 1580. These have been painstakingly exposed to create the impressive exposure of 'A' frames, trusses and beams. In conjunction the property has been tastefully designed to provide an impressive spacious family accommodation in particular the principal drawing room 31'8 x 14'8 with open brick fireplace, vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and 'A' frames with gallery study area to the first floor. In addition there is an impressive dining hall, sitting room/study, living kitchen with Martin Moore bespoke hand made units and deep granite worksurfaces and utility with cloakroom off. To the first floor there are 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms. There is a comprehensive under floor oil fired central heating system. To fully appreciate the charm and appeal a personal inspection is strongly recommended.
