4 bedroom house

DESCRIPTION Courtyard Barn is a stunning barn conversion which stands beautifully within its grounds measuring to 0.74 aces (stms) and enjoys a peaceful rural setting with fine views over farmland. The property was built in 2011 by the current owners, constructed of red brick elevations under pantile roof with an edged pine façade facing into the inner courtyard. The property enjoys imaginative and well thought out accommodation with the whole being offered in wonderful order throughout.

You are welcomed into the main hall with a vaulted ceiling that continues into the master bedroom suite and the open plan kitchen dining room. The kitchen dining room boasts a range of stunning exposed beams and a brick and flint wall feature. There are three French doors which open into the inner courtyard, a theme which continues throughout the barn. The sitting room is a wonderful space with a central log burner and further exposed beams apparent from the vaulted ceiling and three glorious bi-fold doors open to enjoy access into the inner courtyard.

A lovely inner hallway from the sitting room which could be used as a study offers access to a spacious double bedroom which enjoys an en-suite shower, and features access into the inner courtyard once more. The master suite has been cleverly designed to feature two large alcoves which act as dressing areas with fitted hanging rails. Further useful rooms include a large utility room/laundry room, wet room, and Annexe.

The Annexe - The self-contained Annexe acts as a major feature to the property and is accessed either to the side of the property, or via the inner hallway and could be used for a number of purposes with the high demand for Air bnb, an assured shorthold tenancy or the accommodation could be altered to enjoy a five-bedroom property. The annexe currently features a beautiful sitting room with vaulted ceiling and more lovely, exposed beams with a feature log burner, a spacious double bedroom with en-suite shower, and a very useful kitchen with integrated appliances and Oak Worktops.

The triple garage is accessed from the front via two beautiful wooden doors, or from the utility/laundry room. The garage features power and light and plenty of overhead storage.

Courtyard Barn enjoys underfloor heating throughout, two lofts via the annexe and sitting room, and a fully operating alarm system.

The gardens and grounds are undoubtedly a major component to the property and are laid out as follows. The front is presented beautifully being mainly laid to lawn with a range of mature shrubbery and borders, and large vegetable patch. The inner courtyard provides an area of complete privacy bordered by the barn itself and a lovely space for entertaining, and further side garden enjoys pleasant views over farmland.
