Although this converted barn is no longer used for its original purpose, it is still able to enjoy the lush green setting of a farm.
The Old Barn, which is in Heightington, Bewdley, is part of a small, exclusive development surrounded by Worcestershire countryside.
A period property, it is Grade II listed. Its ancient bricks hide a modern and very stylish interior, albeit one with beams to the ceiling and unusually shaped windows.
It is reached down a private gravel drive with ample parking for a number of cars. There is a detached double garage, a private paddock area and natural pond. It is a large property with the accommodation set out over two floors.
The light and spacious ground floor includes an impressive lounge with brick inglenook fireplace and multi-fuel log burner, strip boarded wooden floor, decorative beams to the ceiling and double doors to the garden.
A garden room has parquet flooring and full height glazed double doors leading out to the garden. There is also a feature staircase to the first floor.
The hub of the home is the 35ft long open plan kitchen and family room with natural slate flooring.
It is arranged as two distinct areas. In the kitchen section there are cream cabinets, solid wooden work surfaces, Belfast sink and integral appliances that include Neff ceramic hob, electric double oven with canopy hood and Bosch dishwasher.
The family section has ample room for sitting and dining. It has an exposed brickwork fireplace with multi-fuel stove.
There is more natural slate flooring in the main reception hall, which in turn gives access to the utility room featuring work surfaces to two sides, space for a tumble dryer and plumbing for a washing machine.
There is also a guest cloakroom accessed off the garden room.
On the first floor, a galleried landing forms a pleasant sitting room area with low and wide arched picture window looking out over the gardens and paddock.
There are four double bedrooms, the master bedroom with generous walk-in wardrobe and en suite shower room featuring full-floor tiling, full-width vanity unit with wash basin, toilet, shower cubicle and underfloor heating.
The master, third and fourth bedroom all enjoy views over the gardens and grounds.
In the second bedroom there is a high pitched vaulted and timbered ceiling with two skylight windows.
A family bathroom has a strip-boarded wooden floor and white suite made up of a pedestal basin, a toilet and panelled bath with shower unit.
A large attic space has the potential for conversion, subject to planning consents.
The grounds are an especially nice feature of the property with a large patio/seating area to the main garden and an enclosed private walled garden to the front of the house.
There is also the aforementioned gated and fenced paddock enclosure and a natural pond. In all the plot covers 2.25 acres.
