    Description
    Forming part of the historic Hardicott Estate, this handsome courtyard of traditional stone barns exudes period charm and character. The principal range bears a date stone of 1903, reflecting the long agricultural heritage of the site. Together, the barns create an appealing and architecturally interesting group, arranged around a central courtyard and set within a tranquil rural landscape.

    The accommodation is partly single-storey and partly two-storey, providing an attractive variety of proportions and elevations. The main barn benefits from a desirable south-west facing aspect, ensuring excellent natural light throughout the day and the potential to make the most of far-reaching countryside views.

    Planning permission has been secured for the sympathetic conversion of the barns into a substantial six bedroom dwelling. The approved plans envision an impressive country home of significant scale and individuality, combining the character of the original stone buildings with the comforts and design of modern living. This presents an exceptional opportunity for purchasers to create a bespoke residence tailored to their own style and requirements, in a setting that is both peaceful and highly picturesque.

    The barns are approached over a shared entrance drive and occupy a secluded position with open paddocks and a stream forming part of the boundary. The surrounding land offers space for gardens, leisure areas, or small-scale equestrian use, subject to any necessary consents.

    In all, the property extends to about 2.4 acres, providing an ideal balance of privacy, amenity, and manageable acreage within this attractive corner of the countryside
