DESCRIPTION

Completed in 2023, The Hayloft is a beautifully proportioned four-bedroom barn conversion, thoughtfully transformed to create spacious, light-filled accommodation that combines the charm of its original form with the comfort and practicality of modern living. Exposed beams and vaulted ceilings add a wealth of character throughout, complemented by a high standard of modern finishes.

Entering through the rear of the property, you are welcomed into the dining and family room, a generous dual-aspect space with an abundance of natural light. Offering ample room for both dining and relaxed seating, it provides a versatile setting for both everyday living and entertaining.

From here, steps rise to the kitchen, where a striking vaulted ceiling framed by exposed beams enhances the sense of space. Bi-fold doors open directly onto the dining terrace and garden beyond, providing a seamless connection to the outside. Fitted with an extensive range of cabinetry, the kitchen offers excellent storage alongside integrated appliances, including a fridge freezer. A generous central island, complete with a farmhouse sink, integrated wine cooler and breakfast bar seating, forms the social heart of the room.

The entrance hall provides an alternative front access, with stairs rising ahead and useful space for coats and cloaks. A discrete utility room, cleverly positioned beneath the stairs, offers additional storage alongside plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer. A convenient ground-floor WC completes this section of the home.

Moving through the property, the dual-aspect sitting room is a beautifully proportioned reception space, with expansive floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the gardens. French doors open onto the rear garden, whilst a further door provides access to the south-facing front garden, giving the room a particularly strong connection with the surrounding outdoor spaces. Underfloor heating runs throughout the ground floor, ensuring year-round comfort.

The staircase rises to a bright and spacious first-floor landing, where exposed beams continue the character of the barn conversion.

To the left of the landing, the principal bedroom enjoys views across the rear garden and benefits from a dressing area with fitted wardrobes, together with a well-appointed ensuite shower room featuring a rainfall shower. Wooden flooring adds warmth and character, whilst a useful cupboard provides additional loft storage.

A single bedroom overlooks the front of the property and offers a flexible space that would lend itself equally well to home working, a nursery or guest accommodation.

To the opposite side of the landing are two further double bedrooms. One benefits from fitted wardrobes, wooden flooring and an ensuite shower room, whilst the other enjoys generous ceiling heights, exposed beams and a large window overlooking the rear garden.

Completing the first-floor accommodation, the family bathroom is well appointed, featuring a freestanding roll-top bath and further exposed beam detail.

OUTSIDE

Approached via a gated private access road, The Hayloft is set within attractive courtyard surroundings, creating a welcoming sense of arrival. An oak-framed double garage provides secure parking and useful additional storage, complemented by off-road parking for several vehicles.

A pedestrian gate opens into the enclosed rear garden, where a pathway leads to the rear entrance. Predominantly laid to lawn and bordered by laurel and yew hedging, the garden has a private and secluded character. Adjacent to the kitchen, a generous dining terrace is accessed directly through the bi-fold doors, providing a natural extension of the living space and an ideal setting for outdoor dining and entertaining.

From the terrace, a pathway continues around the side of the property, with space for a garden shed, before leading to the south-facing front garden. Predominantly laid to lawn and enclosed by hedging, this second outdoor space features a further dining terrace, ideally positioned to make the most of the evening sunshine. A pathway continues through the garden to a pedestrian gate, completing the grounds and providing a choice of spaces in which to enjoy the garden throughout the day.
