The Property

Step inside and you’re greeted by a reception hall that sets the tone for everything to come. Light floods through a full-height glazed façade, illuminating travertine floors and a sculptural oak staircase. Exposed brick and timber beams whisper of the barn’s history, while crisp white walls and gallery-like proportions speak to a modern, design-led sensibility. This is a space that welcomes you, encourages you to pause, and promises more at every turn.

From the hall, the home unfolds with effortless flow. To one side, a generous living room stretches out, perfect for gatherings or quiet evenings, while a dedicated study offers a tranquil retreat for work or reflection. Ahead, the heart of the home reveals itself, a breathtaking kitchen, dining, and family room, bathed in natural light and designed for both everyday living and entertaining on a grand scale. To the other side, a spacious sitting room provides another sanctuary, complemented by a practical utility and a beautifully appointed boot room, ideal for country living.

At the heart of the home lies the kitchen-dining-family space that is both the soul and the stage of daily life. The kitchen is a masterclass in refined luxury and thoughtful design. A striking deep blue island stands at its centre, offering a bold anchor to the space and inviting family and friends to gather around. Surrounding this focal point, bespoke cabinetry in a soft, elegant grey provides ample storage while maintaining a sense of calm order. The full-height glazing stretches from floor to apex and the gleaming Corian worktop reflects the natural light, enhancing the sense of openness.

Adjacent to the kitchen, the dining area is perfectly positioned to enjoy pretty views of the garden through expansive glass doors. There is plenty of room for a large dining table and the living area combines to create fabulous family space and an area perfect for entertaining.

Just off the kitchen, the utility room is a testament to the marriage of beauty and function. Full-height cabinetry and integrated appliances continue the home’s calm, considered aesthetic, transforming everyday chores into moments of quiet ease. The rear porch offers a thoughtful nod to country living, a practical space for shedding muddy boots and wellies, where the outdoors is welcomed in without hesitation.

The main lounge is a particularly inviting room, distinguished by its impressive exposed brick fireplace and log burner, which create a warm and welcoming focal point. Exposed timber beams overhead add a sense of heritage, and multiple windows ensure the room is bright throughout the day, offering pleasant views of the gardens. The neutral décor and quality finishes contribute to an atmosphere of calm and understated elegance, making this an ideal space for relaxing or entertaining.

The sitting room continues the theme of character and comfort, with exposed ceiling beams and deep windowsills enhancing the traditional feel. The room benefits from windows on three sides, allowing daylight to flood in and providing views of the surrounding greenery. The generous proportions and thoughtful layout make this a flexible space, perfect for a variety of uses.

The study is designed to provide a peaceful and productive environment, with natural light streaming in through a large window. Exposed beams and warm woodwork echo the barn’s heritage, while the well-proportioned room offers ample space for a home office or creative pursuits. The overall effect is one of tranquillity and inspiration, ideal for focused work or quiet reflection.

Upstairs, the galleried landing leads to four sumptuous double bedrooms, each with its own unique view, including a principal suite with luxurious en-suite, and a family bathroom finished to spa-like standards. Every space is thoughtfully arranged, ensuring the house feels both expansive and intimately connected, with every turn offering a new perspective on this remarkable home.

The principal bedroom is a tranquil retreat, featuring bespoke oak cabinetry and serene countryside views. The en-suite bathroom is a true sanctuary, complete with a classic claw foot bath that invites long, luxurious soaks beneath the gentle light from the overhead skylight. Traditional fittings, including a pedestal basin and high-level cistern toilet, are complemented by a generous walk-in shower with natural stone tiling. Chrome fixtures and thoughtful touches, such as a heated towel rail and soft neutral palette, create a sense of understated elegance and relaxation.

The main family bathroom is equally impressive, with a striking freestanding oval bath set against a backdrop of textured stone tiles. Natural light streams in from the skylight above, highlighting the spacious walk-in shower and the crisp, white sanitaryware. The room is finished with quality details, including a chrome heated towel rail, contemporary fittings and ample space for both relaxation and practicality.

Both bathrooms blend classic style with modern comfort, offering inviting spaces to unwind at the end of the day or prepare for the morning ahead. Every detail has been carefully considered, from the choice of fixtures to the soft, neutral tones, ensuring these rooms are as beautiful as they are functional.
