An exceptional single storey barn conversion, set within a small development in a delightful rural location. The Dairy is presented to a very high standard, with a natural flow to the space, with character features including vaulted ceilings and period-style oak doors. The landscaped garden benefits from being private and secluded, and enjoys an attractive south-westerly aspect over fields. The property sits on a 1/3 acre plot, and includes two car barns, driveway parking and additional visitor parking. Upper House Farm was a working farm until 1992. In 1997 the farm buildings were turned into a group of distinctive, individual dwellings, set around a central courtyard.
The front door opens to a welcoming dining hall, with flagstone flooring and a vaulted ceiling. A door leads through to the beautiful kitchen, with similar flooring and a vaulted ceiling. The bespoke kitchen cabinetry is by The English Kitchen Company, with a matching island unit and a mixture of fitted and free-standing appliances, included in the sale. Doors open to the central courtyard and to the garden terrace. The spacious sitting room features a hand made fitted bookcase, wooden flooring, vaulted ceiling, a wood-burning stove in a brick surround, and bi-fold doors to the garden.
The principal bedroom enjoys views of the garden, and has a vaulted ceiling with exposed timbers. It has its own en-suite bathroom with separate shower, and a dressing room, with fitted wardrobes and a loft hatch and fitted ladder, allowing access to a storage room within the roof above the bathroom. The second bedroom has exposed timbers, and its own en-suite bathroom with a hatch to a loft storage area. The third bedroom includes a useful, bespoke wall storage/shelving unit. Paddle stairs lead up to a mezzanine level above. A modern shower room is located off the dining hall.
Outside, there is gravelled driveway parking by the front door, a covered car barn adjoining the property, and a separate car barn parking area with a lockable storage room. The garden has been landscaped to make the most of its sunny aspect, with a large paved terrace adjoining the rear of the property. The garden is mainly lawned, with a selection of small trees, and low hedging and fencing allowing attractive views over the fields beyond. The working part of the garden includes a vegetable garden with paved paths, a greenhouse, garden shed and further parking area behind a 5-bar gate.
