Description
Oak Tree Barn is an extremely unique and special property which has been designed by the current owners. Originally a dairy farm, the property sits in an elevated position with commanding views towards The Breiddens and the Shropshire plain.
Converted during 2010, the property has been designed to allow in plenty of natural light with large glazed windows along with offering a wonderful lifestyle. There are French doors in the reception rooms, which open out onto the patio and gardens, a BOSE speaker system throughout the house and gardens and underfloor heating throughout the whole property.
The clients have added two rain water harvest systems, which feed the toilets and showers along with high pressure pumps. There are Solar panels fitted which provide 4KW with a feed in tariff remaining for a further 10 years (as of 2024) and Solar panels which provide 6KW which heat the pool. All of the windows are filled with Argon reflective glass.
The accommodation is beautifully designed with a wide oak framed studded door opening into the boot room, with a spacious dining room to the right hand side, which has fitted units and oak flooring. The impressive open plan kitchen living offers a wonderful feeling of space and light flooding in through the glazed windows, which look out over the garden.
The kitchen is a bespoke design by a local firm Kenton Jones and is fitted with oak wall and base units, beautiful larder cupboards, granite worktops, a central island, an American fridge freezer and integrated appliances including a dishwasher, microwave and wine cooler. There is a Zip tap providing instant hot water and a Stoves range cooker which is fed with LPG gas. The utility room has further units, a sink and an integrated freezer.
The kitchen living also provides access to a snug which was built during 2021 and has a gas effect wood burner, doors outside to the patio and garden and access to a double bedroom and en suite shower wet room. There is also access into the swimming pool.
The main reception room is just one of the wow factors of this beautiful home, with a vaulted full height ceiling, large glazed windows and a mezzanine floor above. There is an inglenook fireplace with a wood burning stove which provides 18 KW, along with oak flooring. This room would be beautiful for holiday celebrations and certainly has the space to accommodate a number of guests and family.
There is a separate office, a further entrance hall and door leading outside and a cinema room with a full size screen. Within this section of the ground floor is a double bedroom (6) and a separate bathroom. This part of the house would work well for a dependent relative.
A solid oak staircase rises to the first floor landing which is extensive, offering space for a further office and snug area. There are two principal reception rooms on this floor, to either end, both with a dressing room and en suite bathroom. One has access onto a balcony area overlooking the grounds. There are a further two double bedrooms with a Jack & Jill bathroom.
The swimming pool & party barn.
The swimming pool is another significant selling point, set within a vast area which the current owners converted from original buildings during 2021. The salt water pool is connected to a filtration system, currently heated to 29 degrees and can be controlled through an App. There is a built in Sonos system accessed via WIFI. The pool is fitted with a remote control cover and there is a heat air exchange system in this expansive space, which is also perfect as an entertaining area with colour changing LED lights and doors leading out to a patio and a garden room which has a BBQ area and bar. There is a separate shower and changing room and a door leading through to the pump room.
Gardens and land.
The gardens at Oak Tree Barn have been designed to very much incorporate the magnificent setting but also to offer a fabulous lifestyle. With a covered seating area, off the garden room, a hot tub within an oak enclosure, an archway with steps leading down to a gravel area with a number of raised beds and a greenhouse and then onto a lawned area with a patio. The paddock land is situated to the side of the property and alongside the outbuildings, with access from the main driveway around to the back of the buildings.
The Outbuildings.
All of the outbuildings are incorporated into each other, offering over 10,000 square feet of space, including a substantial garage for a number of vehicles with a workshop area, fitted with electrically operated up and over doors, which were manufactured in Germany. There is a store room and workshop, the original cow stalls with doors opening directly onto the paddock land which would be suitable as indoor stabling. A further storage shed which could serve as classic car garaging or workshop, another barn with doors leading outside to the paddocks and an expansive storage shed which has a roller shutter door opening onto the main driveway and has WIFI connected.
Oak Tree Barn is accessed via electrically operated gates onto a private driveway which opens onto a large parking area with a turning circle.
