Situated on the edge of the picturesque village of Priest Hutton, Orchard Barn is a substantial, attached barn conversion with a highly flexible and sociable layout.

Dating back to the 18th Century and in the same ownership since the barn was converted and extended in the early 1990's, the property was later reconfigured with the conversion of the garage into a splendid living/dining kitchen with access to the garden.

The well-proportioned and well-presented accommodation is set over three floors with a gross internal measurement of 3050 sq ft (283.4 sq m) including eaves storage. The bedroom layout works well if you want guests to have their own space or keep teenagers at arm's length!

Many of the character features remain with a vaulted ceiling and large inglenook fireplace in the sitting/dining room, beams, lintels, stone cills, recessed niches and exposed stone quoins and walls. The original barn door openings form the main entrance and large window in the sitting/dining room.

The generous outdoor space includes excellent parking provision, gardens and a separate orchard. In all, c. 1 acre (0.41 hectares).
