We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Willow Barn is a beautifully presented and rarely available detached five bedroom barn conversion set in c. 1 acre of grounds and ideally situated on the edge of Lydiard Millicent and Purton.
Originally renovated in the early 2000's and thoughtfully extended by the current owners, this exceptional home combines character with modern family living.
Whether you want to walk the kids to the local school or pop in to the local Pub 'The Sun' its all within easy reach!
As you enter Willow Barn, you are welcomed into a bright and spacious entrance hallway, flooded with natural light from a striking roof lantern above.
From here, you are led into an impressive dining room featuring a mezzanine level, creating a wonderful sense of character and charm.
This flows seamlessly into an exceptional open-plan kitchen, living, and dining area of truly generous proportions—perfect for entertaining and social gatherings.
The kitchen is further complemented by a separate pantry and a well-appointed utility room, with a convenient cloakroom located just off this space.
Moving through the property, one of the reception rooms offers a cosy atmosphere with a charming wood-burning stove.

The family bathroom is beautifully finished and includes a freestanding roll-top bath.
Additionally, an orangery provides a unique and attractive connection between the principal bedroom and the main living space, adding both versatility and a touch of luxury.
Externally, the home sits within approximately one acre of beautifully maintained gardens.
A double garage, built by the current owners, includes an additional room above—ideal as a home office or hobby space—along with ample parking.
