Features and description
- Freehold
Dating back to the mid-1600s, Little Churchill Barn is a substantial and versatile residence, boasting stone and rendered elevations beneath a slate roof. Originally converted in the late 1980s, the property has been thoughtfully modernized and extended by the current owners and is now a large four bedroom family home, with an adjoining two bedroom annexe and double garage. It enjoys a serene and private setting with panoramic rural views.
The main house offers approximately 2,866 sq ft of elegantly appointed accommodation across two floors. The ground floor features a charming kitchen/breakfast room with an Aga, a dining room with a fireplace and bi-folding doors opening onto a terrace that overlooks the gardens, a reception hall with an adjoining study, a staircase to the first floor, and a ground-floor shower room.
The sitting room is equally inviting, with a fireplace and French doors that open to the gardens. On the first floor, the principal bedroom suite, guest bedroom suite, two additional bedrooms, and a landing with an airing cupboard offer spacious and comfortable living.
The annexe, which can be independently rented, has its own access via the side of the garage. It comprises a ground-floor bedroom, a first-floor bedroom, a shower room, and a kitchen/living space on the first floor with a large window offering scenic views of the surrounding landscape.
A stable block with a turnout yard is situated to the left of the drive as you approach the house and garden. The grounds, extending to the north and west of the house and annexe, feature expansive lawns, terraces, and a substantial parking and turning area with space for several vehicles. Additionally, there is a 40m x 20m sand school on the northern boundary.
The double garage includes a carport/tractor store on the side, and there is an area for a kitchen garden and additional garden storage buildings between the garage/annexe building and the sand school. EPC: D
