It should be noted that the barn offers a huge amount of flexibility and indeed planning consent has been granted for it to become further accommodation, i.e. usages of annex etc. The planning permission is granted for it to be a separate dwelling, but it is anticipated due to its location that it will always be used in conjunction with the house if so desired. The accommodation within this barn is shown on the plan within the brochure. It creates a two-storey dwelling, including double height living, dining, kitchen, off a generous sized entrance lobby, utility room, in a hallway, second sitting room, three ground floor double bedrooms and bathroom, one of the bedrooms served by an en-suite, two large first floor bedrooms, including bedroom one with dressing room and en-suite, first floor snug and home office.
THE BARN CONTINUEDThe plan demonstrates the barn’s potential and due to this planning consent we can be relatively relaxed in saying that the barn’s offers flexibility in its current guise or can be converted to create annexed accommodation or at the very most a separate dwelling if so desired (Application No 2025/62/92837/W)
LANDStanding in approximately 7.23 acres the home enjoys its own land from virtually every window. There are two large fields of high quality being gently sloping and with well-established boundaries and all are accessed internally.

In other words the footpath provides one with idyllic walks into the countryside directly from this home.
