The Property
'Wow factor' is a regularly coined phrase, yet fully justified when describing 1 Cow Pasture Barn. Having been carefully and thoughtfully re-reconstructed and refurbished in the late 1980's, along with the neighbouring properties in the vicinity, this wonderfully crafted home presents around 3,300 sq. ft of living accommodation spread across three floors. The mainly neutral decoration is beautifully complimented by the light vertical and horizontal timbers - a running theme throughout. The barn has an excellent variation of vaulted rooms, such as the bright, galleried hallway/landing, complimenting the dining area off the kitchen, along with the study area adjoining the cosy living room - both of which have skylights. The living room is warm and cosy - the ideal place to relax on the chillier winter evenings in front of the toasty wood burner. All of the bedrooms are generous in size and offer more than enough space for a family - this extends up onto the second floor, which supports two further bedrooms and a central bathroom suite.

Outside
The barn is accessed via a shared driveway from The Common. At the front of the barn is a gravel driveway with space for two vehicles directly in front of the double garage. A five bar gate to the side opens up to a further driveway, leading to a large secure storage shed with power & light. The garden extends beyond with mature shrubs and spring flowers, including snowdrops, a pond and rural views extending from the boundary.

Services
Mains electricity and water are connected. Private drainage. Oil fired central heating system.
