Property details
NO FURTHER CHAIN! ‘The Barn House’ is a simply lovely, substantial (3799 square feet), natural stone, detached barn conversion situated in the heart of the pretty Dorset village of Longburton, near Sherborne. This deceptively spacious property is well presented and boasts fantastic levels of natural light from many dual aspects and large feature windows. The barn stands in a generous, level plot and gardens at the front, side and rear extending to just under a third of an acre (0.30 acres approximately). The property boasts some lovely character features including exposed stone internal elevations, oak beams and an impressive entrance reception hall with full height ceiling. The property comes with two substantial attached barns – one which is currently being used as a huge double garage / workshop. The other has lapsed planning permission to convert in to a two bedroom annex / ancillary accommodation. There is ample private driveway parking for six cars or more at the front. The property is enviably free from the restrictions of Grade II listing. The well-arranged accommodation comprises entrance reception hall, sitting room, dining room, kitchen / breakfast room, side hall, utility room, boot room, and cloakroom / WC. On the first floor there is an impressive half gallery landing area, generous master double bedroom with en-suite shower room, three further double bedrooms and a family bathroom. It is a very short walk to the village pub. There are country walks from the front door. It is only a short drive to the historic town centre of Sherborne with its superb boutique high street with cafes, restaurants, Waitrose store and independent shops plus the breath-taking Abbey, Almshouses and Sherborne’s world-famous private schools. It is also a short drive to the railway station to London Waterloo. Sherborne has also recently won the award for the best place to live in the South West by The Times 2024. NO FURTHER CHAIN.
