3 bed barn conversion for sale

Lunds Close, Westhead L40

From the moment you approach, this is a property that feels a little different. This charming Grade II listed barn conversion has recently undergone an extensive programme of improvements throughout, creating a beautifully finished home while retaining the character and features that make a property like this so special.

Externally, the property has benefited from a number of improvements, including a new front door, new rear door and two new gates, while four windows have been replaced. The distinctive arched front window has also been carefully repaired, with all of the glass panels replaced. The roof has been checked, gutters repaired and lead lined, while the front and rear downpipes have been replaced or repaired and overgrown foliage removed, giving the property a well-maintained approach. To the front, there is generous off-road parking with space for three cars, providing plenty of room for residents and guests.

Stepping inside, the entrance hallway immediately introduces the character of the property. Generously proportioned, there is even space for a small sofa or seating area, while the large windows to the rear draw your eye towards the lovely views over the surrounding farmer's fields. A thoughtfully positioned armchair creates a wonderful little nook, providing the perfect place to sit, read a book and enjoy the outlook. It is a simple but charming feature that perfectly captures the relaxed feel of the home.

The lounge continues that characterful atmosphere, with an electric fire creating a cosy focal point, a feature wall and bookcase adding to the snug feel of the room, and exposed wooden beams adding warmth and character overhead. There is plenty of space for a range of furniture, while the property has been mainly professionally painted throughout, creating a fresh and welcoming finish. A useful downstairs WC is conveniently positioned just off the hallway, with a newly created and panelled cupboard providing additional practical storage.

The kitchen diner is undoubtedly one of the highlights of the home. Full of cottage charm, the room combines a beautifully considered kitchen with plenty of space for dining and relaxing. The kitchen has been refreshed with newly finished units, new worktops, a new sink and taps, together with a full range of new appliances. A farmhouse-style sink, generous worktop space and breakfast bar-style counter are complemented by ample room towards the rear for a comfortable seating area.

There is also plenty of room for a large dining table, making this a fantastic space for everyday living, entertaining or simply enjoying a lazy morning coffee. Exposed wooden beams add another layer of character and help create the wonderful farmhouse feel that runs throughout the property. New spotlights have also been installed within the kitchen, enhancing the space and providing practical lighting. A useful utility room leads directly from the kitchen, providing additional workspace, a further sink and space for white goods.

Heading upstairs, the staircase itself becomes a feature, leading to a beautifully light landing. A large rear-facing window floods the space with natural light, while the vaulted ceiling and exposed beams create an impressive sense of height and volume.

The principal bedroom is another standout space, continuing the property's character with a striking feature wall, high-level panelling behind the bed and exposed beams overhead. The combination of original character and carefully considered modern touches creates a luxurious yet incredibly inviting bedroom. The room is complemented by a stylish en-suite bathroom which has been further improved with a complete new shower, alongside the freestanding bath, wash hand basin and WC.

The two further bedrooms are both comfortable and well proportioned, offering plenty of flexibility for family, guests or working from home. They are served by the modern family bathroom, which has been retiled and further updated with a new bath panel and neatly boxed-in pipework, alongside the bath with overhead shower, wash hand basin and WC.

Throughout the property, further improvements include new carpets, wooden blinds, updated lighting and new sockets and light switches to the ground floor. A new boiler has also been installed and comes with a five-year guarantee, offering further peace of mind.

Outside, the private rear garden provides a secure and low-maintenance space to enjoy. Fully paved, there is ample room for a rattan seating area, separate outdoor dining space and a shed. Potted plants add greenery and colour, while a small sandpit area could easily be transformed into a fire pit, creating a lovely spot to relax and enjoy the garden on an evening.

This is a truly special home that successfully combines the charm and character of a Grade II listed barn with the comfort and finish of a recently renovated property. From the exposed beams and vaulted ceilings to the feature brickwork, thoughtful living spaces and beautiful outlook, there is character and interest around every corner.

A property that really needs to be viewed to appreciate the quality, atmosphere and individuality it has to offer.
