Are you looking for a unique home in a private, rural location and period features without feeling isolated?
Then look no further!
Tower Barn is perfectly positioned between two historical market towns, Ashbourne in Derbyshire and Uttoxeter in Staffordshire, enjoying the very best that the two counties have to offer. The property also benefits from excellent commuter links to Derby, Stoke-on-Trent, Nottingham and Birmingham.
In addition to the primary home, garden and detached annex there is also the opportunity to purchase a 0.68 acre orchard and an 8 acre+ field (available by separate negotiation).
Somersal Herbert is a tranquil hamlet, home to only approx. 50 properties and is set in a quiet and peaceful pocket of open countryside.
Tower Barn is idyllically set, and unseen from the lane. Pull into the shared access road and onto the private driveway where there is ample parking for plenty of vehicles in addition to the double garage.
Follow the path alongside the beautifully manicured gardens and lawn to arrive at the glazed entrance door and enter this traditional brick-built barn conversion renovated to the highest standards, both private and inviting.
The impressive hallway provides access to the dining room, kitchen, and downstairs WC, with stairs rising to the first floor.
All ground floor rooms, with the exception of the living room, enjoy underfloor heating.
Hang your coat on the hooks in the WC or stash your outerwear away in the handy storage cupboard under the stairs, then freshen up in the immaculately finished cloakroom with wash hand basin and WC.
The Karndean flooring extends from the hallway into the spacious dining room, which is framed by an original beam and enjoys views over the patio area and garden.
Upon entering the living room, you are immediately struck by the height of the magnificent, exposed beam and vaulted ceiling which extends to 5m in height with the added advantage of a central exposed brick fireplace with log burning stove.
Relax and unwind in this lavishly sized room, where the feature picture window frames the view out over the garden and the Velux windows flood the room with natural light. The log-burning stove ensures an ambient warmth in the winter months and a beautiful focal point in the summer. The richly toned beams enhance the rural feel of this home, private and not overlooked.
The cosy and welcoming kitchen with black granite worktops which contrast beautifully with the cream cabinetry and the red eye-catching Rangemaster electric induction cooker further enhancing the traditional farmhouse feel of this home.
The fitted appliances include an integral dishwasher, fridge freezer, and microwave. The solid wood, French style doors open out onto the garden, welcoming the outside, inside, during those long summer days, just perfect for family entertaining.
The 'must have' laundry room houses the central heating boiler and has both base and wall mounted cupboards, creating a useful space away from the main kitchen.
The snug with beamed ceiling and Karndean flooring provides an additional space in which to escape, a cheerful and pleasant room for intimate evenings, listening to or playing music, an artist's studio or hobby room, the snug allows you to extend your living space to truly enjoy your home.
This room would also be well suited to either a home office or child's playroom, helping you to keep these areas separate to the main living space. Comprising of a beamed ceiling and French style patio doors leading to the main garden.
