Property description

A brick under slate, six bedroom barn conversion with a double garage and off street parking with a rear garden in a rural position overlooking open countryside.

The Lodge extends to over 4,000 sq. ft. in total and includes an entrance hall with the main staircase, storage, and a cloakroom and access to the sitting/dining room and family room. The family room leads to the kitchen/breakfast room, with a door to the utility room, and the study. There are two ground floor bedrooms as well as a family bathroom. In addition, there are four further double first floor bedrooms, all with en suite facilities, and the principal bedroom also has a dressing room. The triple garage has been partially converted with a sauna and steam room in the end section; the remaining space is used as a gymnasium with access to the utility room and the en suite bedroom two above. Ahead front of the garages a gravelled driveway has parking for up to four cars and an area of lawn. The rear garden backs onto open countryside and is predominantly lawned, with decked and paved areas adjacent to the barn as well as a swim spa with a jacuzzi and resistance pool.

Reception rooms and Kitchen/breakfast room

The full-height vaulted sitting/dining room has exposed trusses, a floor-to-ceiling glazed opening with French doors to the garden, and an open fireplace with an inset wood burning stove. There are a family room and a study (with mezzanine storage) facing into the front garden and accessed from either side of the kitchen/breakfast room. The kitchen has base and wall units with wood and granite work surfaces and an island with an electric hob. Included are an Aga, an oven, a dishwasher, and a double butler’s sink. There are a shelved pantry and space for an American style fridge/freezer and a table.

All four rooms have fitted wardrobes and bedrooms three and six have en suite shower rooms. The lower level rooms share a four piece bathroom with a separate bath and shower.
