5 bedroom barn conversion for sale

Lime Tree Barn is a striking modern barn conversion providing a spectacular home with clean lines and bright, spacious accommodation of almost 3000 sq ft. Occupying the major portion of a former agricultural barn the house forms an L-shape around a private courtyard, providing parking.

Converted to provide an ideal family and entertaining space, the house delivers a good balance of open plan and separate accommodation which flows from a double-height reception hall. A solid oak bifurcating staircase rises to a galleried landing, providing a dramatic focal point. There is a large drawing room and sitting room, the latter with sliding doors to the terrace. A fitted utility room and a boot room provide useful storage; there is also a cloakroom.

The vast vaulted kitchen/breakfast/family room is fitted with sleek units and a large central island. This bright room is flooded with light from wide, glazed sliding doors and provides a sought-after open-plan family living space.

The staircase divides leading either side to the very well-appointed bedroom accommodation. The principal bedroom to the front enjoys an en suite shower room and dressing room. Two of the remaining four bedrooms are also en suite and there is a family bathroom.

Set against a backdrop of mature trees, Lime Tree Barn is approached over a driveway with gates opening to private parking to the front.

The garden close to the house is laid mainly to lawn bordered by shrub beds beyond which is a lightly wooded area. A good-sized terrace sits adjacent to the house.
