WOWSERS! CAN WE GET A VIRTUAL ROUND OF APPLAUSE FOR THIS GORGEOUS FOUR BEDROOM BARN CONVERSION. WE DON'T EVEN KNOW WHERE TO START IN DESCRIBING ITS BEAUTY. JUST WOW!
Galleried entrance. Cloakroom. Utility. Open plan living dining kitchen. Upper level living room. Four bedrooms, plus luxurious ensuite shower room and bathroom. Basement with bespoke family bathroom, office and plant room. Parking for 4 cars. Detached double garage. Grounds and gardens extending thereabouts to 1/3 acre. Option to purchase an additional paddock of approximately 1.5 acres.
A 'just completed' Eco barn conversion gushing with sophistication. The owners have kept the integrity of the exterior while fully renovating and modernising the interior. And we want to be the first to say it. We love the dichotomy of rustic contemporary.
The Haybarn snuggles within a small courtyard of only four other distinctive conversions, yet on the fringe means it takes advantage of stunning breathtaking vistas over adjoining countryside.
Innovative and Eco friendly system installations include solar panels, ground source heat pump, heat/vent recovery system, underfloor heating, network data points and an integrated audio system.
Situated in the preferred semi rural Gillow Heath area on the outskirts of Biddulph, with the award winning National Trust Biddulph Grange Gardens close by. Open countryside is just a few minutes' walk away delivering you to some of Staffordshire's most enjoyed natural views and rural walks, yet extremely convenient for access to Biddulph, one mile south, and Congleton, five miles north, which offers links with the main M6 arterial routes, and mainline national rail networks.
The original barn openings create a flood of light into the galleried entrance hall. The right hand hall offers the utility and cloakroom. Beyond, a doorway opens into the fabulous open plan living dining kitchen, a fantastic space with distinct dining and seating areas, with the bespoke kitchen with solid oak hand painted units, granite worktops and quality appliances. From this room a return staircase leads up to the first floor living room with a stunning contemporary style multi fuel stove. Windows from this room overlook the landscaped gardens and enjoy countryside views beyond.
The seamless extension added to the left hand side of the converted barn offers two ground floor bedrooms and to the first floor the 'old and new' are linked with a bespoke glazed roof landing with doorway to the principal bedroom with cathedral style ceiling, Juliette balcony and luxurious ensuite with walk in shower, whilst the other side of the landing in the original part of the barn, is the final bedroom with cathedral ceiling and complemented with its own beautifully appointed bathroom.
The basement with corridor, is complete with a full bathroom with walk in shower and bath, office housing the home automatic matrix, and plant room.
Outside and to the front is a sweeping driveway for four cars, a five bar gate leads to the side with the detached double garage. The rear gardens are simply divine, having been landscaped but in a low key way with beautiful Indian stone terrace, extensive level lawns, and even a gritstone built 'sheep fold' seating area. The gardens abut to a paddock belonging to the vendor which extends to approximately 1.5 acres (which is available subject to separate negotiation).
DIRECTIONS:
Proceed out of Congleton on the A527 (Biddulph Road). Upon entering Biddulph and after passing St Lawrence's Church on your left, take the next right onto Marsh Green Road, pass over the bridge whereby the entrance to the property will be found immediately on the right hand side clearly identified by our For Sale board. 'The Haybarn' will be found at the end of this small courtyard of bespoke properties.
