3 bedroom barn conversion for sale

Description Meadow Barn really is quite special. Not just the very attractive internal and external aesthetics, or the views or the superb area or the spacious, characterful accommodation, but the the feel of the place - that calming, relaxing, warm hug like feeling which envelops you as you step inside and kick off your shoes. Whether you arrive as a holiday guest or enter as a brand new owner you are definitely not going to be disappointed.

Currently a successful holiday let and second home it is now reluctantly offered for sale due to a change in circumstances. This property is equally suited as both a second or permanent home - it does benefit from a very convenient location for some major Furness employers such as BAE or BNFL.

Originally historic farm buildings this charming cluster of barn conversions were cleverly and sympathetically converted in 2008. This one is the last in a row of 3 and enjoys the best views over open countryside to the river Duddon in the distance. This property is now a warm, comfortable, inviting and tasteful home - literally ready for the new owner to just turn the key and move in.

The front door opens into the Hallway with useful storage cupboard, stairs to the First Floor and a large Cloakroom with WC, pedestal wash hand basin, wall mounted LPG gas central heating boiler and generous under stairs storage cupboard, but also provides ample space to double up as a Utility Room perhaps or maybe for the addition of a shower if required.

The Lounge/Dining Room is a most impressive room, not only due to the well proportioned and incredibly generous dimensions but the triple aspect and cosy log burning stove. The room currently accommodates 3 sofas, a snuggle chair, dining table and free standing shelves with room to spare - a fabulous room for a large family and entertaining. The Kitchen is also a good size and is furnished with a good range of maple wall and base cabinets with inset sink and integrated dishwasher, fridge and freezer. Built-in ceramic hob with cooker hood over and 'NEFF' oven. Plumbing for washing machine, twin front windows looking into the front Garden and space for a bistro table. Double glazed doors open into the Conservatory which is a super addition and is double height! A super, peaceful place from which to sit, relax and enjoy the views whatever the weather.

From the Entrance Hall, stairs lead to the First floor where there are 3 well proportioned Double Bedrooms - all with very pleasing country views. Bedroom 1 and 2 have partially pitched ceilings, deep set windows with front aspect with Bed 2 having feature 'stairs' to large, fire escape/roof window. Bedroom 3 has a pitched ceiling and fitted wardrobe. The Family Bathroom has a 4 piece white suite comprising walk-in shower, large bath, WC and pedestal wash hand basin. Chrome ladder radiator and 'Velux' roof window.

Externally there are 2 perfectly proportioned areas of well kept but quite low maintenance Gardens. The front is enclosed by a timber fence and young hedge with level lawn and paved seating area. The rear is also fenced, slightly smaller but again with a well tended lawn.

The Garage is 1 of 3 and has an up and over door plus Parking for 3 cars to the front and side of the Garage. There is also additional Visitor Parking too.
