Description

The original hay barn, coach house and stables, that became Grange Barn, were creatively and sympathetically restored in 2010. The structures were completely rebuilt, whilst retaining all original timber structures.

Oak waney edge boards, used to clad the building, have now mellowed over time, allowing the barn to blend softly into its garden surroundings. The striking open plan living space showcases vast queen post trusses with arched braces, that fill the stunning vaulted ceiling. A full height glazed wall has French doors opening to the garden and terrace. To one end is the contemporary kitchen with a large central island. Appliances include six ring gas hob, oven and combi oven/grill, microwave, plate warmer, integrated dishwasher and American style fridge. A walk-in larder, utility room and cloakroom are directly off. A contemporary suspended log burner can be rotated to create ambient heat.

Steps down to the western wing of the barn housing the generous entrance hall, laundry room, downstairs wc, three bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room and a family bathroom.

To the first floor is the principal bedroom and guest bedroom suites. The large galleried landing makes an ideal study area. To the eastern side of the barn is a light and airy mezzanine, situated above the kitchen.

The garden lies to the front of the barn, looks out to the paddocks and open fields at the back, mainly laid to lawn with well stocked herbaceous borders, fruit trees and a vegetable garden. Lighting and speaker cable in garden.

The stone-built, two bay garage houses a workshop with double doors and has power and water supplied. Electric car charger in car port.
