Halton Barton Barn is an impressive and beautifully presented four
bedroom family home located in a most sought after location in the
Tamar Valley AONB in east Cornwall. It enjoys exquisite views over
the creek and the River Tamar towards open countryside with
Pentillie Castle and estate in the distance.
The property itself was originally part of the Pentillie Estate
until it came into private ownership in 1984. The conversion work
started in 1984 and was completed to its present state in 2005 by
the current vendors who converted one end of the property to create
the reception room, followed by the energy saving equipment, the
Linhay and Shed/Boat store.
The property is entered through a large timber front door opening
into a spacious entrance hallway which in turn leads to the drawing
room and kitchen / dining area. The drawing room features a large
granite and Cornish slate stone fireplace with oak lintel and wood
burning stove set within. This room could become a formal dining
room or family room but currently is used as a multi-purpose
dining/music/ study room.
The bespoke kitchen / dining area is an extremely comfortable,
light and spacious room and features beautiful bespoke hand built
chestnut kitchen units coupled with granite work surfaces and Miele
appliances. Located off the kitchen is a Pantry which provides
access onto the front sun terrace where attractive views over the
creek are enjoyed.
The additional reception room entered from the kitchen features a
vaulted ceiling with exposed A-Frame timber beams together with a
Minstrels Gallery accessed from a bespoke southern yellow pine and
glass staircase. The main area within this room features an
impressive open fireplace and limestone floor with under floor
heating. At the far end of this room is a snug / television area, a
small library and separate shower room. Steps lead to the gardens
and grounds via two sets of French doors. This allows the
opportunity to create a self -contained studio living area offering
its own entrance in and out of the property via the French doors.
The library could also be removed and a small kitchenette installed
therefore allowing any dependent relative or family member to live
within the main body of the property yet have their own independent
living and sleeping area.
The Minstrels Gallery gives access to the gardens and grounds via a
timber link bridge.
At first floor level there are four bedrooms and a family bathroom.
The two bedrooms at the eastern and western ends of the property
offer en suite facilities and spacious bedroom floor space. The
master bedroom in particular provides impressive vaulted ceilings
and a P-Shaped shower bath. This bedroom retains the original
features of a former threshing barn as ventilation slots are still
in place and have been glazed to provide small windows. The guest
bedroom features an en-suite shower room with Delabole slate tiling
and a multi jet shower unit.
External
The property is approached via a shared private track. Upon
entering the property, a driveway runs through the garden to a
detached Linhay (carport) and parking area and continues to the
front of the property where there is a courtyard and further
parking area. Accessed from this area is the attached Shippen which
currently holds planning permission to be converted into a self
contained two bedroom dwelling. (Plans available upon request)
Alternatively, this could be incorporated into the main property
offering additional bedroom accommodation or the provision of a
games or cinema room. Access to this area can be created from the
reception room / snug area but would involve knocking through an
existing recess in the separating wall.
The gardens and grounds wrap around the property and are mainly
laid to lawn. From the majority of the garden there are views
across the creek towards Pentillie Estate. There is also a field,
measuring approximately 2 acres in size with its own gated entrance
and track which offers potential for development as a Paddock or
Wild Flower Meadow. The track leads to a detached timber building
between the field and garden, which currently offers garaging for a
dinghy but could also be converted into a hobbies room or outside
studio. This timber building also houses the PV panels on its
roof.
To the immediate frontage of the property is a large sun terrace
which makes the perfect position for alfresco dining whilst
enjoying views across the valley. There is access into the pantry
and laundry from this area making it convenient for
entertaining.
Adjacent to this area is the outside tank room which contains a
water holding tank, back up generator, oil tank plus the bore hole
filtration system.
