Property Description

Manor Barn is a beautiful Cotswold stone family home in the heart of the picturesque village of Elkstone. Elegantly renovated, this welcoming converted barn provides generous living spaces in a private and attractive setting.

The Kitchen/ breakfast room is fabulous for everyday dining and offers plenty of work top and storage space. The adjacent dining room is ideal for hosting family and friends and leads into the generous living room. The dual aspect windows and French doors which lead to the garden offer ample natural light and the exceptional original features, such as the inglenook fireplace and exposed oak beams, make this a lovely room in which to relax and unwind with a good book in front of the fire in the colder months.

The office, with large windows overlooking the driveway and garden, works wonderfully has a home office and could equally be used as a media or playroom for younger children.

The ground floor also has a double bedroom with an adjacent shower room and a further bathroom along the hallway. This makes the ground floor very versatile and adaptable.

There is also a handy utility room.

Upstairs comprises the master bedroom, three further double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The rooms have been thoughtfully laid out to provide ample discreet storage and an abundance of natural light throughout.

Outside the garden is a haven of peace and tranquillity, predominantly laid to lawn and interspersed with herbaceous borders, fruit trees and raised beds. The garden overlooks the surrounding countryside with open views over the neighbouring fields and the terrace is the perfect spot for al fresco dining in the warmer months.

The double garage provides further storage space and could equally make a wonderful studio/ gym subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents.

There is plenty of parking on the private gravelled driveway.
