Description
1 South Barn is an excellent smallholding located in a rural position on the edge of the village of Grittleton. Set within just under 2 acres of gardens and paddock land, the property offers the opportunity for those seeking the 'good life' comprising a 3 bedroom barn conversion, large versatile outbuilding with home office, and stabling for two. The property is located down a private driveway which accesses only 9 rural homes.
Formerly a milking parlour converted in the 1980s, the semi-detached barn conversion has retained much character and in more recent years has been updated with a new kitchen, a bespoke oak porch, and a large en-suite. Arranged over one floor, the accommodation extends to around 1,066 sq.ft and enjoys a southerly aspect. The principal accommodation comprises a large reception room with bi-fold doors connecting to the garden and a cosy wood-burning stove. The refitted kitchen is arranged around a central island incorporating timber worktops, an integrated fridge/freezer, oven, dishwasher and wine cooler. Adjoining the kitchen there is a side entrance lobby, water softener and WC. Originally configured as four bedrooms, the bedroom accommodation now comprises three bedrooms, a family bathroom, and both an en-suite and dressing room to the main bedroom.
The barn is screened by mature hedging and trees providing a great deal of privacy and seclusion. The gardens are arranged to the front and side aspect benefitting from the sunny south-facing aspect. A gated driveway provides private parking for numerous vehicles.
Positioned close to the main barn, there is a substantial outbuilding which has been partially converted to include an excellent self-contained home office suite complete with kitchenette and toilet/shower room. The other half has been retained as three stables/store rooms and a workshop.
The land is located across a shared driveway to the south of the main house. The fenced paddock extends to around 1.20 acres and is superbly arranged for the equestrian enthusiast accompanied by 2 loose boxes, a tack room (with electricity), haybarn, an all-weather 40x25m manege (constructed 4 years ago), water supply, and parking for a small lorry.
