SUMMARY

A striking barn conversion with style, space, and countryside living. Offered with No Onward Chain.

Ansells Barn is a stunning example of a sympathetic conversion, tucked away in the peaceful countryside, a home where rustic charm meets modern design. Set behind a gated gravel driveway, this spacious home offers flexible living with four double bedrooms, three ensuites, and a well-designed open-plan kitchen / dining / living space with vaulted ceiling.

The property also comes with a large, enclosed garden, four brick-built storage units, and a further 13 acres (stls) of woodland and pasture.

THE HEART OF THE HOME

The centrepiece is the vast open-plan kitchen/dining/sitting room, crowned by an impressive, vaulted ceiling with exposed timbers.

The sleek kitchen, with its granite island and top-end appliances, is perfect for everything from lazy breakfasts to lively dinner parties, with bi-fold doors spilling out to the sun terrace beyond.

At its heart, a granite-topped island houses a NEFF hob and extractor, with plentiful storage. Twin Integrated NEFF ovens, microwave, plate warmer drawer, and BOSCH full-height fridge and freezer complete the high-specification kitchen.

There’s ample room for a large dining table, and the sitting area centres on a cylindrical woodburner- perfect for cosy evenings.

FLEXIBLE ACCOMMODATION

Behind its characterful timber frame lies a dramatic open-plan living space with soaring vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and a cosy woodburning stove at its heart – a room made for gathering family and friends.

With four double bedrooms and three stylish ensuites, there’s plenty of space for family or guests and practical touches abound.

There is a utility room with additional appliances (including a two ring LPG bottle fed gas hob), and a clever boot room with WC, storage, and even a ‘dog shower’-ideal after muddy countryside walks.

On the ground floor, the principal bedroom is a luxurious retreat, complete with built-in wardrobes, bi-fold doors to a sun terrace, and ensuite with bath, rainfall shower, twin vanity storage, and heated towel rail.

A second ground-floor double also benefits from fitted storage and an ensuite shower room. Upstairs, two further bedrooms are accessed via separate staircases. One offers a galleried view over the living space below and has its own ensuite, while the other makes an excellent guest room or home office.

OUTDOOR LIVING

A gated gravel driveway offers ample parking and also provides access to four useful brick built storage units.

A flagstone sun terrace wraps around the side of the barn, capturing the sun and offering the perfect setting for summer entertaining.

The main garden is laid to lawn, while a further 13 acres (stls) of woodland and pasture can be accessed via the garden, though there is a separate roadside entrance.

LOCATION – TWINSTEAD AND SURROUNDS

Twinstead is a charming rural village that offers the best of countryside living, with rolling farmland, peaceful surroundings, and a strong sense of community.
