The dining room is impressive being double height with lots of light flooding in due to the large glazed opening. The kitchen is well-fitted with an excellent range of cabinets. A useful utility is situated just off the kitchen. Completing the ground floor is a study and cloakroom.
A staircase leads from the dining room to the first floor galleried landing. The principal bedroom is generous with fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room. There are three further bedrooms which share a family bathroom.
The barn is surrounded on three sides by a mature garden which is mainly laid to lawn with flower beds. There is a single garage and off road parking.
