Orchard Barn is a beautifully converted two-bedroom barn with vaulted ceilings, floor-to-ceiling glazing, generous gardens, and ample parking. It offers stylish contemporary living in a peaceful rural setting.
A rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully converted two-bedroom barn, offering a generous garden and the added benefit of parking for four to five vehicles. This thoughtfully designed property features oak flooring, exposed brickwork, and vaulted, beamed ceilings with a galleried landing, all set within mature and well-established gardens.
The main living space has a real Wow factor with an open plan layout, architectural features and vaulted ceiling. Bright and airy, it has floor-to-ceiling sliding doors on two sides which provide uninterrupted views of the surrounding gardens and create a strong connection between indoors and out. This is combined with engineered oak flooring, a cosy log burner and underfloor heating creates a welcoming and well-balanced interior. The kitchen area has grey slate-effect tiled flooring and fitted with a range of wall and base units, offering ample storage. Integrated appliances include a dishwasher, electric oven and hob, fridge-freezer, and washer-dryer.
The principal bedroom, along with its adjoining dressing area, continues the oak flooring and features exposed brickwork, white walls, and ceiling beams. A spiral staircase rises to a mezzanine level with a galleried landing overlooking the main living area. From here, a door leads to the second double bedroom, which also enjoys a vaulted, beamed ceiling. Both bedrooms are served by a modern shower room comprising a large walk-in shower, WC, wash hand basin, and tiled flooring.
Outside
The gardens wrap around two sides of the property, with level lawns bordered by mature trees and established planting. A wooden shed provides useful storage, while a shingle patio area offers an ideal spot for outdoor dining or quiet relaxation. The driveway has an electric car charger and parking for four to five vehicles—a rare and valuable feature for a property of this type, together with an electric car charger.
