Delightful barn conversion on the edge of the town overlooking gently undulating open countryside

Description
Chelford Barn is an impressive barn which dates back to the 1800's. The conversion took place in 2000 with the property being fully renovated from its origin as an agricultural barn. The construction is of timber frame, brick base with weather boarded elevations. The barn has numerous historic features that include a wealth of exposed beams and stud work throughout the main barn section of the property and wooden, slate and tiled floors. In the heart of the barn is a semi-vaulted hall which opens through to a sheltered terrace overlooked by a galleried landing. The front section of the barn comprises two reception rooms with a raised wood burner in the sitting room. The modern kitchen features several integral Neff appliances, Quooker hot tap, granite work tops and the same units are fitted in the utility room which is just off from the kitchen and opens to the rear terrace. In 2012 the barn was extended beyond the breakfast room with a glazed link leading into a stunning full height reception room with under floor heating and bi-fold doors to the gardens. A side hall leads to an airing cupboard, cloakroom and study/single bedroom (5). There are two double bedrooms and a family bathroom. A part galleried stair leads to the first floor landing which gives access to two vaulted bedrooms on either side of the landing each with en suites and in-built cupboards.
