The Courtyard EPC

"A beautiful barn conversion offering flexible single storey living in a rural setting"

The Property
The Courtyard provides a welcoming and spacious home with vaulted ceilings throughout. Full of character and charm the property is beautifully finished, with well-proportioned accommodation. From the entrance hall the large kitchen/diner provides a sleek and modern space ideal for entertaining and features two original stone byre arches that open out onto the private courtyard. Exposed wooden beams and light flooding through the velux windows allow the space to blend seamlessly with the lounge area with a traditional multifuel log burner and ceiling height flue making this an impressive, yet warm and welcoming space.

The principal bedroom is situated at the end of the hallway with an adjacent shower/steam room. The three remaining bedrooms are all situated along the hallway. Bedroom two is complimented by a single door providing access to the private courtyard garden. All rooms have velux windows and beams providing roomy yet cosy spaces to relax in.

Externally
To the north and south there are patios offering sheltered outdoor dining space and all day sun. In addition to the patio on the south side there is also a gravelled courtyard with a rockery and mature trees and shrubs to the southern border. Both of these spaces offer low maintenance. There may be an opportunity to purchase 3 acres of land under separate negotiation.
