Pull off the main road, on route to Arkholme and follow Locka Lane into the countryside for 500 metres, before arriving at Locka Old Barn, alongside three other spaced apart homes.

Formerly one, large, eight-bedroom home, now renovated, replumbed, rewired and reloved, Locka Old Barn has been converted into a five-bedroom barn and a three-bedroom cottage. Also, with an impressive outbuilding ripe for transformation into an annex, Locka Old Barn is a home brimming with potential.

With space for several cars, park up and make your way to the main entrance of the barn.

The Barn:
Make your way into the entrance porch through the modern front door and onto the tiled flooring which continues in the entrance hall.

Turning right, flow through into the recently fitted farmhouse kitchen/diner. White metro splashbacks add a crisp modern feel, coating the wall behind the Rangemaster oven and beneath the quality Keller cupboards, of Dutch design. Beneath the worktops, cupboard units are replaced by drawers, adding a practical element to this cleverly designed kitchen.

Spacious and family oriented, the kitchen opens into the whitewashed dining area, with ample space for a table and sideboard, before flowing through into the lounge through petrol blue, glazed double doors.

Plush cream carpet extends underfoot in the lavishly-sized lounge, where high ceilings rise up above. Light flows in through the French doors, opening up to the garden beyond. Warmth and welcome are issued from the log-burning stove, set upon a stone plinth. Café au lait tones embellish the walls for a bright, modern, yet cosy feel.

A home with great, sociable flow, slip through into the snug, a fantastic second lounge which could serve as a playroom or dining room; all the rooms are so versatile. From the snug, a stable door leads out to the rear.

Flow back through into the entrance hall, where there is an abundance of storage for coats and boots in addition to under-stairs storage.

Tucked off the entrance hall is the family shower room, elegantly styled in mallard green to the upper walls, and tiled in white beneath, harmonising with the tones of the floor tiles. A walk-in shower with large rainfall shower head stands alongside a wash basin and WC.

Take the carpeted staircase up to the first floor, where immediately ahead, the spacious master bedroom awaits, carpeted in soft grey. Ahead, mirrored doors slide open to reveal ample storage space, with additional room for further wardrobes and drawers. Decorated in charcoal grey, this room has a cocooning, cosy feel. Garden views greet you from the bed, whilst this master also features an ensuite containing bath, separate shower, wash basin and WC. The main 300 litre capacity water cylinder for both homes is housed on this side of the property.

Re-emerging on the large landing, turn right into another bedroom, with space for wardrobes, chest of drawers and a bed. This cheerful, whitewashed bedroom, with views out over the countryside, could also make the perfect home office. Locka Old Barn has B4RN connection, making it ideal for those working from home.

Turn right out of this bedroom and discover the third bedroom on this floor, a spacious chamber, dressed in soft pink tones and brimming with character in its rustic exposed beam and quirky nooks and crannies which offer great storage solutions (and hide and seek spots). One side lends itself to a dressing area with space for a wardrobe and dressing table. Peep through to the 'Jack and Jill' ensuite shower.

Turning left, sneak a peek at bedroom five, where sloping ceilings add a cosy feel, beneath the light of the Velux window; perfect for children or even as a hobby room.

Cottage:
Proudly displaying the name of the home in the brand new, sandblasted, triple glazed windows of the recently installed entrance porch, Locka Old Barn bids you welcome to its three-bedroom cottage annex.

Enter through the charcoal grey front door, where there is space for coats on the exposed stone wall. Stepping from the stone floor of the porch onto the engineered oak of the large, light-filled lounge-diner's, hang your keys in the handy alcove in the wall on the right.

Flow through into the kitchen/diner, and sense the airiness courtesy of the open design of the home. Contemporary grey, Dutch Keller kitchen units proffer plenty of storage, cleverly designed with drawers to the lower walls to avoid rummaging in cupboards.

Cook up dinner for guests on the electric oven and hob, with space too for a freestanding fridge-freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. Light streams in from windows to two sides whilst a door opens up to the rear garden.

From the kitchen discover a handy cloaks area, set beneath the stairs with shelving for shoes and hooks for coats. A convenient cloakroom features WC and wash basin with vanity unit storage, impeccably tiled underfoot in contemporary tones.

Take the stairs up to the landing, where directly ahead, a door opens to the master bedroom. Enter along a hallway area, where built-in white wardrobes to the left provide plenty of storage for clothing. Emerging into the bountiful bedroom, with rustic beam adorning the ceiling, sense the serenity of your surrounds. Windows to two sides capture the beauty of the surrounding fields and landscape.

Returning to the landing, turn left into the spacious second bedroom, whitewashed with attractive exposed beams along the side. Glorious views of the verdant countryside greet you once more from the window.

Turning left out of this room, discover a third double bedroom, with light streaming in through windows to two sides.

Finally, freshen up in the family shower room, dressed in light tones and overlooking the garden and fitted with a walk-in shower, wash basin and WC.

Outside, the garden at Locka Old Barn has been re-envisioned to provide a perfect landscape for children and adults alike.

Step outside onto the patio spanning both properties, the perfect place to sit in peace and quiet and watch the woodpeckers on the bird feeders, or the children scampering about the large, flat lawn. Secure and pretty - look out over the dry-stone wall boundary to the tall trees beyond, a haven for nature.

Outbuilding:
Sneak a peek at the large, purpose-built outbuilding, currently used to store logs and other garden essentials. Formerly four rooms, it is currently divided into two spaces with one section housing a washing area with Belfast sink and washing machine.

Served by electricity and hot water, and cavity wall insulated, this outbuilding offers another prospect for holiday let income, when fully realised.
