About
The Accommodation The ground floor of May Barn is arranged to provide a versatile and well-considered flow of accommodation, combining characterful spaces with practical family living.
The property is entered into a welcoming reception hall, from which the principal ground floor rooms are accessed.
Positioned to the right, and the heart of the house, is the impressive kitchen/breakfast room, a sociable and light-filled space designed for modern living.
The kitchen is arranged around a central island and opens naturally into the principal lounge/dining room, creating an excellent sense of scale and connectivity.
The lounge/dining room is of notable proportions, lending itself comfortably to both relaxed seating and more formal dining, with doors opening to the outside, enhancing the connection between house and garden.
To the rear of the property lies a generous media room, an adaptable space well suited as a snug, or secondary sitting room, offering a degree of separation from the main living areas and a potential annexe if required.
Adjacent is a utility room, thoughtfully positioned to serve the day-to-day requirements of the house, with space for appliances and ancillary storage, and convenient access to a ground floor shower room.
A spiral staircase from the ground floor rises to the fourth bedroom.
The first-floor accommodation is arranged to provide comfortable and well-balanced bedroom space, ideal for family living and visiting guests.
The principal bedroom suite is of generous proportions and enjoys a pleasant outlook, offering ample space.
It is served by a superb en suite shower room, creating a private and practical retreat within the house.
Two further bedrooms are positioned along the first floor, each offering flexibility for use as guest accommodation, children’s rooms or home office space.
These rooms are served by a stunning family bathroom, thoughtfully arranged and centrally located for convenience.
Outside To the front of the property, a private driveway provides off-road parking for three to four vehicles, offering a practical and valuable feature for a village home.
The driveway sits comfortably within the setting of the barn and allows for easy day-to-day access.
To the rear lies a private garden, providing a peaceful outdoor space ideal for both relaxation and entertaining.
The garden offers a good degree of privacy and is well suited to outdoor dining, family use or more informal enjoyment throughout the warmer months.
The combination of generous parking and a private rear garden further enhances the appeal of the property, particularly for those seeking space and privacy within a well-regarded village location.
