In an excellent village location and with captivating views over open countryside, Potters Barn is a splendid period property built of mellow local stone under a slate roof. Believed to date from the 1800's the house is made up of a tall threshing barn and adjacent dairy which have recently undergone a total refurbishment which has painstakingly preserved the architectural structure and style of the original buildings with features including exposed original beams, trusses and lintels, vaulted ceilings and high barn-door windows. Bi-fold doors and French windows throughout the living areas make the most of the wonderful views, increase the feeling of space and light and allow an easy flow between inside and out, whilst the semi-open plan design of the main living areas is well suited to contemporary life.
