5 bedroom house

Semi-rural living, high impact designs. The Granary, set in the Hamlet of Stowe, is one of a quintuplet of distinguished barn conversions. Areas of The Granary are believed to date back to the 1800s, and its unique character can still be seen.

Converted in 2004, The Granary sits just a few miles out from Stamford, Lincolnshire. History comes alive in Stowe as it features in the Doomsday Book. This barn′s conversion has all the pastoral beauty of country living, with local market towns and the city of Peterborough a short drive, connecting The Granary with the big smoke in just 50 minutes via train to Kings Cross.

Taking a step inside, the five bedroom, three reception, four bathroom barn packs a punch; and every inch has been thought out to deliver maximum living potential. The layout of the living areas and in fact, the entire home, makes The Granary versatile and forward-thinking in its open attitude. High ceilings prevent the spaces from ever feeling too linear and regimented and the gorgeous use of wooden beams, punctuates each room, offering distinction.

The living room boasts three sets of double glass doors opening outwards to enjoy the great views over the garden. A front window overlooking the paddock tops it off. Inside though, the wood burner makes for a super focal point.

In the kitchen, an Italian shaker oak style welcomes you. Granite worktops are prepared for the culinary graft. Sit at the island, fire up that stove or relax from the adjoining family room, everyone is involved in this collaborative, multifunctional space. Built-in appliances are featured and a utility room and separate boot room connects the home to the garage.

Through to the study and then on to four good sized bedrooms, two of them with ensuites, there is a sense of serenity as you make your way through the barn.

Outside has been designed to offer multiple reflective and social spaces. There's a front and rear garden with a private drive for up to eight cars in the front, and apple trees in the back.

Here you′re surrounded by farmland, so whether you're on the front dining patio; the decked rear area, you can see beauty and nature at play. Approximately a third of an acre of luscious private land could be yours.
