Additional Information

Constructed of handmade clamp bricks with lime pointing and a pantile roof along with cast-iron guttering, West Barn is a handsome property that retains the integrity of the original building. It has high performance timber windows and doors as well as internal finishes that include moulded skirtings, architraves and internal oak doors. There is a LED lighting system throughout the house and underfloor heating across the ground floor and in all three bathrooms.

At the heart of the home is the kitchen/dining/living room that extends more than 48 ft and comfortably accommodates a family-sized dining table and a sitting area in front of the log-burning stove. The Shaker style kitchen is fitted with units, double sink and drainer, quartz worktops and upstands. It is accompanied by a large utility/laundry room with a sink, fitted with Shaker style units. A central staircase with oak treads and a glass balustrade rises to the balconied first floor landing.

The principal bedroom is south facing and has an en suite bathroom. There are two further double bedrooms and a house bathroom, as well as an additional bedroom and house bathroom on the southern wing of the ground floor. This wing is connected to the main house through an oak-framed garden room, and could become a self-contained unit. It works equally well as an integral part of the house and includes a sitting room with a door giving access to the garden.

Outside

Entrance gates open to a gravel drive, lined with high Portuguese Laurel hedging, that sweeps westwards in an arc providing off-street parking. The integral garage has power and light. There is also an EV charging point as well as external power sockets, lighting and external taps. A path of Indian of Stone leads to the house entrance, passing a generous area of front lawn, artfully concealed from East Barn by pleached trees and a hedge. On the western side of the house a long stretch of lawn is bounded by a post and rail fence with a stone patio that is accessible from the garden room and provides an ideal place for enjoying the afternoon/evening sun. At the rear of the house lies a further expanse of lawn with shrubs and planting.
