Originally built in 1885, this beautifully converted four bedroom attached barn offers a seamless blend of character and modern benefits. Designed for contemporary living, the property is arranged in a reverse level layout, with the main living areas positioned to take full advantage of the stunning exposed 'A' frame beams, which rest gracefully on original granite corbels.

The heart of the home is the expansive open plan living space, enhanced by underfloor heating beneath oak flooring, creating a warm and welcoming environment. The superb kitchen is both stylish and functional, featuring a sociable central island with an oak work surface, ideal for entertaining. Adjacent to this space is a well appointed utility room and a cloakroom.

The master bedroom is a luxurious retreat, boasting a walk-in wardrobe and a contemporary en-suite bathroom. Three additional well proportioned bedrooms (one en-suite) provide ample space for family or guests, all finished to a high standard and two of which open onto the west facing patio creating easy access from inside to out.
