Full Details for 5 Bedroom Semi-Detached for sale in Stamford, PE9 :
Manor Barn is a handsome period barn dating from the 1700s, built of local stone with brick-work detail. The house is located in an ideal semi-rural location bordering open fields with lovely country views and easy access to many local bridleways and footpaths. Originally converted and extended in 1988, subsequent additions to Manor Barn have created a welcoming, light-filled home with substantial and flexible accommodation set over two spacious floors. The house retains much of its historic charm and many period features such as the hayloft on the front façade, solid oak beams and inglenook fireplaces, whilst vaulted ceilings and many windows throughout flood the house with light. French doors from the large Conservatory open the interior to the grounds and make the most of the country views, whilst the striking Study features a unique mezzanine Gallery adding further living space or guest accommodation. Outside, the enclosed garden is south-west facing and there are an excellent range of outbuildings including a three-bedroom self-contained Annexe and a bespoke Glass-house, as well as the further benefit of a 1.5 acre paddock. With its extensive grounds, flexible accommodation and potential to adapt to many different lifestyles, Manor Barn is a unique, impressive country home in a wonderful rural location.
