Watch the birds at the feeder as you prepare and eat
breakfast; all year round it is visited by a fantastic
variety of birds including nuthatches, woodpeckers
and even the occasional red squirrel.
Sense the ancient origins of the barn in the arrowslit
windows, whilst the organic evolution of this home
is evident in the practical modern touches: the
contemporary pendant lights and fitted cupboards
opening to reveal the washer and dryer and shelving
for laundry essentials.

Returning to the entrance hall, continue
across to emerge into the main living
room; a wow factor space as the double
height ceiling rises to meet the galleried
landing above.
Dressed in modern grey tones to the
walls, and accessorised impeccably with
stylish light fittings, natural light also
flows through from the enormous floor
to ceiling window, once the main barn
door access. Solid oak flooring is in
keeping with the epoch of the home,
whose transition between ancient and
modern architecture can be witnessed
in its magnificent curves and deep-set
windows where the depth of the walls is
truly revealed. Note also the impressive
media unit with television built in.

Elegance & Finesse
Flow through a glazed door into the sitting room, where high
quality woollen cream carpet complements the serene styling.
Taking centre stage, the stunning gas-operated fire bowl
provides toasty warmth and evocative ambience in wintertime.
Shut all the doors to create several intimate and private spaces
for relaxing or leave them open for total sociability and flow.
From the main living room, take the European oak staircase,
handcrafted and installed by a local craftsman; plinth LED
lighting guides you up to the first-floor landing. Sense the
warmth from the Belgian Jaga radiators, where built-in
Bluetooth allows each zone to be centrally controlled via a
mobile phone app.
