Preston Barn is an attractive Grade II listed barn conversion from the 18th century. The Barn was rebuilt in the late 1980s and upgraded by the current owners, but it now needs updating.

The property offers versatile accommodation, including an impressive open-plan sitting room with a central wood-burning stove and vaulted ceilings. The impressive staircase rises above the sitting room and leads to the first-floor principal bedroom suite and bedroom two.

The tiled entrance hall leads into a dining room with good ceiling heights and exposed beams. There is a well-appointed kitchen/breakfast room with exposed timbers and an adjacent office and utility room.

There are three to four bedrooms and three bathrooms, including a ground-floor bedroom and a mezzanine bedroom/study.
The property would benefit from some updating and needs re-thatching. Planning permission has been granted to add dormer windows to the first-floor guest bedroom.

The adjacent Coach House provides excellent guest or family accommodation and includes an open plan kitchen/breakfast room with a sitting room, dining room/study and cloakroom.

There are two bedrooms and a shower room on the first floor.

Doors from the breakfast room lead on to a sheltered terrace and fenced garden. The pretty gardens are laid mainly to lawn with
mature borders, trees, shrubs and an apple orchard. Beyond the garden is a paddock with various outbuildings, including a workshop, log store and storage, which returns to a pretty
winterbourne.

N.B. The Coach House is on a separate title to Preston Barn but is being sold as one property.


Preston Barn and Coach House is located in Preston, a small hamlet between the popular villages of Ramsbury and Aldbourne. Ramsbury has many amenities, including several shops, The Bell public house and café, healthcare practice and outstanding Ofsted primary school. Aldbourne has many facilities and is just over a mile from the property.

The pretty market town of Marlborough and Swindon provide a wide selection of shopping and recreational facilities. The property is well-placed for excellent communications and schools, with trains from Hungerford to Paddington taking about 60 minutes.

In addition to the village schools in Ramsbury and Aldbourne, other popular schools in the area include Pinewood, Marlborough College, St John's and Dauntseys.

Services: Mains water, electricity and gas heating. Private drainage.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
