Description
Barrow House is an award-winning architect-designed home occupying a beautiful rural setting on the edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds. Shortlisted for the riba House of the Year Award in 2020, the property was designed by id Architecture and is partly built into the hillside beneath a wildflower meadow, while the upper level is clad in oxidised Cor-ten steel to echo the appearance of a traditional agricultural barn.
Inside, the accommodation combines understated contemporary styling with bespoke finishes and extensive glazing that fills the interiors with natural light. The lower level includes a study, plant room, utility/laundry room, cloakroom and walk-in pantry, while the front of the house is devoted to a spectacular open-plan living, dining and kitchen space. Full-height glazing and sliding doors frame panoramic countryside views, while the kitchen features shaker-style cabinetry, a large central island and integrated appliances set within a striking concrete-clad inglenook-style recess. Relaxed seating areas at either end complete this impressive entertaining space.
The five first-floor bedrooms all enjoy far-reaching countryside views. The principal suite projects over the lower level and features full-height glazing, a dressing area with fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room. A second bedroom also benefits from an en suite, while the remaining three share a family bathroom with a freestanding bath and separate shower.
A five-bar timber gate opens on to a gravel driveway leading to a parking area and the integrated double garage. Above the lower level, the wildflower meadow forms an attractive green roof, while the gardens extend westwards and include expansive lawns, a terrace spanning the length of the house and a sheltered patio for outdoor dining. Beyond, a wildlife pond and productive vegetable garden enhance the idyllic rural setting.
The house has received numerous regional and national awards, including Best Individual New Home at both the labc Yorkshire and National Building Excellence Awards (2019), Best in Show in the riba Yorkshire Readers' Vote (2020) and Grand Designs House of the Year (2021). It was also featured in the 2021 series of Grand Designs: House of the Year on Channel 4. The property has appeared in Grand Designs Magazine and the Architects' Journal, and has generated income as a filming and photography location, including for a Land Rover Defender campaign.
