4 bedroom house

Set at the end of a no-through lane on the edge of the town, Southcote Barn is an immaculate tastefully presented detached barn conversion hidden from the lane behind a tall stone wall with a wooden gate that opens into a large gravelled courtyard.

The property has been the subject of a comprehensive refurbishment and is now a beautifully presented family home with naturally light contemporary interiors and great proportions that include vaulted ceilings and a galleried landing that looks over the dining room.

Extending to 3,225 square feet over two floors, the property briefly comprises a kitchen/breakfast room that centres on an island with glazed double doors that open into a vaulted dining room. There are two very comfortable sitting rooms one with views over the garden and the other focusing on an attractive fireplace and wood burner. A large utility room, a versatile boot room and a cloakroom complete the ground floor.

Exposed beams typical of a barn conversion are prevalent throughout not more so than upstairs where they make a wonderful feature. The master bedroom has a well-appointed en-suite shower room. At the other end of the galleried landing there are three further bedrooms and a family bathroom as well as a pair of walk in storage spaces that utilises the eaves space off the landing.

Completely enclosed (dog proof), the rear garden is level and faces south. Predominantly lawned with well stocked flower borders and a selection of mature trees, there are a number of private seating areas and a large block built garden shed/workshop.

The house and curtilage is Grade II Listed.

Services: Oil fired central heating. Mains water and electricity. Private drainage. Double glazed windows throughout. High speed fibre broadband connection available.
