Description
Believed to date back to the 17th century, Brinsop Barn is a beautifully appointed Grade II listed barn conversion, which has been thoughtfully designed to offer a blend of contemporary living whilst retaining its period integrity. The sympathetically refurbished accommodation offers a wealth of original period features, including extensive exposed beams and wattle. It is evident that acute attention to detail has been paid to all aspects, which is most notable in the joinery materials and finishes which have been used throughout. The house boasts a beautiful staircase, extensive oak flooring, stripped internal doors and hard wood double glazing. A great strength of the house is its location enjoying a sunny south west facing aspect, affording wonderful views across the Herefordshire countryside towards the Tarrington Hills.
The accommodation on the ground floor comprises a spacious reception hall, cloakroom, open plan sitting room with a feature multi-fuel burning stove, snug, dining room, well equipped kitchen and utility room. A sweeping staircase from the ground floor leads to a galleried landing with a stunning cathedral ceiling flooded with natural light. The accommodation on the first floor includes four double bedrooms (two with en suite) and a spacious family bathroom.
The grounds belonging to Brinsop Barn extend to approximately two thirds of an acre with areas laid to lawn together with a large seating terrace. A sweeping driveway leads to a generous area of parking and to a number of useful outbuildings including a DOUBLE GARAGE, CARPORT and GYM/STORE.
The property further benefits from a self contained one bedroomed ANNEXE, which provides further flexibility for a dependant relative.
