Property description
Looking for a new life in the countryside? This extended detached farmhouse, complete with a substantial barn and planning permission to convert, could be just what you’re searching for.
Situated opposite to the village church in the semi-rural village of Egmanton, this fantastic property offers versatile and flexible living space that is ideal for family life.
The property has been thoughtfully extended across two floors.
The welcoming entrance hallway includes a cloakroom, while the impressive 28ft living room is filled with natural light from full-height side windows and bi-fold doors leading to the garden terrace – a perfect family gathering space.
A separate dining room features an exposed brick open fireplace and a cupboard housing the boiler and underfloor heating system, which serves the ground floor.
The stunning kitchen is designed with a bright, airy feel and plenty of storage. A large central island with Corian worktop, breakfast bar seating, and wine fridge creates a sociable focal point
The shaker-style solid wood units are complemented by Corian surfaces, inset sink with boiling water tap, and a full range of integrated appliances, including induction hob, double oven, microwave, dishwasher, under-counter fridge and freezer, and washing machine. Parquet flooring with underfloor heating runs throughout, and bi-fold doors open directly to the rear garden.
Completing the ground floor is a charming double bedroom with a feature fireplace, inset log burner, and window overlooking the village church.
Upstairs, the master suite is a real showstopper. A luxurious bedroom enjoys garden views through an impressive feature window. The open-plan en-suite includes a freestanding bath with waterfall tap, walk-in shower, twin sinks set on a solid wood vanity, and WC, leading through to a fitted dressing area with open storage. Two further double bedrooms and a family bathroom – with P-shaped bath and shower, vanity unit, and heated towel rail – complete the first floor.
The farmhouse is rich in character, showcasing original features such as beamed ceilings, curved walls, and latch doors, all enhanced by double-glazed windows and oil-fired central heating.
The Barn – with Planning Permission
A substantial brick-built barn (45’ x 19’7) with pitched roof and existing power, light, and vehicular access. Planning permission has been granted for conversion into a spacious dwelling, comprising open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, utility, large studio, and a bedroom suite with dressing room and en-suite. The barn also features French doors to a terrace and garden, providing superb scope for additional accommodation, a holiday let, or business opportunity.
The property stands behind a block boundary wall with gated access to a gravelled driveway providing parking for up to six vehicles. The front garden is mainly laid to lawn with gravel and tiled terraces wrapping around the house, offering multiple seating areas.
To the side and rear, further terraces and decking connect to the house via bi-fold doors, creating ideal spaces for outdoor dining. Features include a raised fish pond, water garden, log store, and a timber summerhouse with power and light.
