4 bedroom terraced house for sale

A magnificent barn conversion

Description

Originally a hay barn dating from 1745, 3 Hartleys Barns is a very stylish conversion situated in a highly desirable North Cotswold village. The building’s original character has been retained and combines sympathetically with modern finishes to create an imposing property. A special feature of the property are the high ceilings which contribute to the sense of space while the many tall windows allow an abundance of light to flood in. The soaring proportions of the living space create a marvellous impression. From the light and spacious entrance Hall you enter the stunning open plan living/dining area which is the perfect place for the family to gather at the heart
of the home. The kitchen area is fitted with an excellent range of bespoke cabinets with integrated appliances from Miele and Neff, a larder and a breakfast bar. There is plenty of space for a good sized table and chairs as well as sofas
and armchairs. A useful utility room is accessed from the kitchen. A wide opening leads to a fabulous light-filled sitting room with floor to ceiling glazing. There is a wonderful
double sided contemporary fireplace by Stuv which can be enjoyed from the sitting room and the kitchen/ dining room. A cloakroom completes the ground floor.

The staircase has been cleverly designed to maximise the space with a light and airy study/home office area between floors.

On the first floor is the principal bedroom which benefits from an en suite shower room. There are two further bedrooms, a family shower room and a luxuriously appointed family bathroom. A dressing room fitted with cupboards could be converted to a fourth bedroom if so desired.

Turning off the village lane you drive over a shared area to reach the double car port. There is a secure storage room within the car port. Double gates lead to the garden which is on three sides of the property. The well maintained gardens are fully enclosed and mainly laid to lawn with mature shrubs, many roses and fruit trees.
