PLEASE CONTACT US IF YOU LIKE TO BE MADE AWARE OF PROPERTIES BEFORE THEY ARE UPLOADED TO THE PROPERTY PORTALS Castles Estate Agents are proud to represent this truly magnificent 17th Century Grade II listed barn conversion, offering over 2,500 sq. ft. of extraordinary living space, tucked away along a private road in the highly sought-after village of Eaton Bray. Originally built as a grain store, this remarkable building was transformed in 2004 into a breathtaking family home, combining centuries-old character with contemporary design. The result is a one-of-a-kind property where soaring vaulted ceilings, original exposed beams and dramatic architectural features create an unforgettable sense of space and style. At the heart of the home lies a spectacular open-plan living area, bathed in natural light and framed by its towering roofline and historic timbers. Floating above this extraordinary space is the striking suspended glass and oak walkway, a bold, show stopping feature that links the upstairs bedrooms while giving uninterrupted views across the living space below. This unique glass panelled bridge is not only a practical connection but a true centrepiece, adding a sense of theatre and elegance to everyday living. From the main living area, there is access to the kitchen/breakfast room, a cosy sitting room warmed by a corner log burner, and a versatile reception room that can be used as a family snug or additional bedroom. The first floor continues the sense of drama, with the mezzanine study overlooking the vast living space, offering a truly inspiring place to work or unwind. The principal bedroom is a showpiece in itself, with a vaulted ceiling, exposed beams and a private en-suite bathroom, while the other bedrooms are equally inviting, full of charm and character, and served by a stylish family bathroom. Outside, the barn is approached through a five-bar gate onto a generous gravel driveway, providing ample parking along with a useful storage shed. The gardens are simply enchanting, thoughtfully designed to create multiple areas for relaxation and entertaining. To the rear, a contemporary entertaining garden invites memorable evenings with its covered patio, raised decked walkways leading across a low maintenance lawn. To the side, a romantic 'country style' garden bursts with raised flower beds, winding gravel paths, and a protected original sunken pond, a beautiful reminder of the buildings agricultural heritage. Eaton Bray itself is a charming semi-rural village on the Bedfordshire and Buckinghamshire border, surrounded by open countryside yet offering a vibrant and welcoming community. Within the village and neighbouring Edlesborough you will find everything from a traditional pub, local stores, hairdressers and an award-winning Indian restaurant. Families are well served by Eaton Bray Academy, with a pre-school on site, and a choice of excellent secondary schools in the nearby towns of Leighton Buzzard, Tring, Dunstable and Wing. For leisure, the village recreation ground offers tennis, football and a playground, while the glorious Chiltern Hills lie just moments away, providing endless opportunities for walking, cycling and exploring the outdoors.
