Description

Beautifully marrying original features with a host of modern improvements is this semi-detached barn conversion, situated nearby the village of Welton. The property is set along a quiet country lane surrounded by wonderful open countryside and is adjacent to a popular livery yard, so is ideal for keen equestrians with excellent outriding on the doorstep. A number of updates have been made in recent years, including new windows and doors, guttering, insulation, solar panels on the roof and a complete cosmetic renovation throughout, the house is immaculate and is ready to move into. Outside there is ample parking and a low-maintenance south-facing garden to the rear, plus a paddock where there are five Mongolian yurts used for a glamping business.

The spacious home offers more than 2000 sq ft of space over two floors, with most of the rooms set around a fabulous open plan living space with a soaring double height ceiling crossed by exposed beams. There are oak floors in the living space and matching skirting boards and doors throughout, with other character features including a huge brick inglenook fireplace that continues up to the first floor. It’s beautifully presented inside, with stylish contemporary décor complementing the original parts of the building. The open plan living space has room for sitting and dining areas, with a double bedroom at each end and a stunning wood and glass staircase rising to the floor above, where there’s a galleried landing looking down. To the rear of the house there’s a bathroom, a luxurious kitchen and a large boot room with lots of storage cupboards. Upstairs there’s a principal bedroom with an en suite shower room and a further double bedroom.

To the front there is a private gravel driveway that wraps around the side of the house with space to park a number of vehicles. The rear garden faces south and is very private, with a high wall around the perimeter. It’s laid to a mix of gravel and paving making it low maintenance with a hedge border to one side and a couple of raised beds stocked with shrubs. There’s also an outdoor seating area designed for a firepit and a hot tub, available by separate negotiation. The paddock to the rear has five separate Mongolian yurts, all individually decorated with either wood-burning hot tubs or electric multi-jet hot tubs, plus a communal kitchen within a wood cabin.
