Barn conversion for sale in Halstead CO9, 4 Bedroom

A superb example of a cleverly converted former agricultural dwelling that now forms a stunning family home in a fantastic rural location along a private road.

Of particular note is the striking vaulted entrance hall which has an impressive solid oak staircase with glass panel sides rising to the first floor and a glass walkway between the two halves of the first floor. This principal reception area is a stunning family entertaining space and benefits from attractive tiled flooring and two sets of French doors giving access to the garden. It is fitted with an attractive contemporary styled kitchen with a range of integral appliances to include fridge/freezer, dishwasher, oven, grill and hob above with extractor hood over. There is an extensive island unit with breakfast bar which also has a preparation sink, beyond which is the aforementioned stunning dining area which has a Stovax double sided fire. A solid ledge and board oak door leads to an extensive utility room fitted with the same units as the kitchen which has a range of integral appliances to include a washer/dryer and second freezer. There is extensive work surface with oak butchers block surfaces and a butler sink and beyond this is a further solid oak ledge and board door leading to a boot room with a door to the garden. Beyond the vaulted dining area is a stunning principal reception room which continues the contemporary theme with the same tiled floor throughout. There is an impressive recess for a large screen entertaining unit. A solid oak ledge and board door leads to a cosy snug with vaulted ceiling and impressive oak framework on display and an attractive red brick chimney breast with oak lintel and inset wood burning stove set on a slate hearth. It is fully glazed to its Westerly elevation with patio doors leading to the garden.

The remainder of the ground floor comprises a well appointed cloakroom, a spacious guest suite with lavishly appointed en-suite shower room and views overlooking the garden and countryside beyond. There is access to the adjoining cartlodge via a personal door from the inner hall.

The first floor is equally impressive with the stunning walkway overlooking the vaulted reception area and the principal suite being situated to the rear of the property benefiting from the fantastic views to the gardens and countryside beyond. This room has a fully vaulted ceiling with an impressive frame on display, a Velux roof light and has solid oak flooring and an en-suite bath/shower room. There are two remaining bedrooms both of which have vaulted ceilings, one of them with a glazed aperture through to the vaulted reception hall.

These two bedrooms are served by a lavishly appointed en-suite shower room. There is under floor heating throughout the property.

The property is approached via a private gravelled drive which in turn leads to an extensive area of parking and attached double cart lodge. There is an attractive sandstone entertaining terrace positioned to take advantage of the afternoon and evening sun which can be accessed directly from the kitchen/breakfast room.

The delightful rear gardens are accessed from the vaulted dining area and the snug and predominately benefit from a South and Westerly aspect enabling them to take advantage of the all day sun. There are large expanses of lawn flanked by densely stocked herbaceous borders which provide year round colour and interest. Beyond the garden is a paddock which is available by separate negotiation and open fields.

It would be fair to say that Manor Farm Barn is an outstanding conversion in a superb location offering stylish and modern family accommodation.
