Guide price £700,000 to £715,000. East Barn is a stunning conversion of a former agriculture building situated in a unique development of just two other similar converted buildings, and enjoys a pleasant location on the periphery of this attractive village. The property displays many interesting and characterful features throughout and is perfectly suited to a range of modern lifestyles, and has an appealing blend of contemporary finishes throughout.

A glazed door accesses an inviting reception hall which has a part vaulted ceiling, panelling to dado height and exposed oak framework on display. The reception hall opens to a practical and useful study area which overlooks the paved and walled courtyard. A further door accesses a cloak room with a matching white suite, adjacent to which is a plant room housing the boiler and pressurised water cylinder. A square arch with a part vaulted ceiling opens to the magnificent principle living/dining area which has a fully vaulted ceiling with exposed tie beams, a large picture window to the east elevation, and panelling to dado height with a useful shelf above. The dining area has a glazed door opening to the walled court yard making it ideal for family entertaining and there is an extensive understairs storage cupboard.

Beyond here is a charming kitchen/breakfast room which has an exposed red brick plinth and a window to the court yard and a second window giving views over the village green. The kitchen is fitted with a range of high quality units with quartz work tops and upstands and a range of integral appliances to include a 'Bosch' eye level oven and grill, dishwasher, and fridge freezer.

The impressive staircase which has oak hand rails and wrought iron spindles rises to a landing which overlooks the vaulted sitting area and has a panelled door leading to the principal bedroom. This has a part vaulted ceiling with exposed beams on display and a louvered window. Twin glazed French doors access a lavishly appointed and particularly spacious en-suite shower room which has wonderful views to the village green and the fields beyond. There is an oversized walk in tiled shower cubicle, a rectangular sink with storage beneath and a matching WC.

The remaining two bedrooms are on the ground floor with bedroom two having a glazed door opening to the court yard, a part vaulted ceiling and exposed oak framework on display. A panelled door opens to a well appointed en-suite shower room with a fully tiled oversized shower cubicle, rectangular sink with storage beneath and a matching WC. Bedroom three has two glazed openings to the court yard, a part vaulted ceiling and a panelled door to a generously sized en-suite shower room with an oversized shower cubicle, rectangular sink with storage beneath and a matching WC.

Outside
The property is approached via a large drive which is shared by the other two properties which in turn leads to a particularly attractive cart lodge building with weather boarded elevations and a zinc roof, of which two bays are allocated to East Barn. The stone path leads to a particularly attractive court yard which surrounds the property on two sides and is flanked by a curved mellow red brick wall and a further brick wall with inset flint panelling which provides a focal point. There is a large west facing court yard which provides a high degree of privacy and is perfect for alfresco entertaining.

Beyond the drive is a further large area of garden which comprises expanses of grass, mature loral hedging to the boundaries and a post and rail fence. This area of garden has a power and water supply and will be perfect for the situation of a home office, pod or garden room.
