Electric wooden gates sweep open to reveal a completely private, long driveway, flanked by manicured lawns with planted borders. The anticipation of relaxing in a naturally illuminated home is piqued upon first glimpse of the sophisticated glass entrance hall ahead; the aesthetic allure of Stone Croft Barn adds to the pleasure of your day even before setting foot inside.

With parking for several vehicles, park up or tuck the car into the substantially sized garage, before heading to the front door. Welcome home.

Enter into a large glazed entrance hall, where exposed stonework ahead gives a taste for the heritage of this home.

Farrow & Ball's Ammonite lends an understated calm to the room, allowing the bespoke, handmade hardwood and painted oak kitchen cabinetry, topped in granite, to take centre stage. All gleam in the natural sunlight that streams through end to end. A space that has evolved to serve as a high traffic family room and an entertaining party hub, there is space for a dining table and a sofa.

Integrated appliances include an electric Britannia oven, built-in AEG microwave and Bosch dishwasher, alongside an American style fridge-freezer, which sits snugly within the purpose-made cabinetry. Underfloor heating infuses the kitchen with warmth, inviting leisurely dinners and breakfasts that bubble over into brunch, whether seated at the table or the central island breakfast bar.

Sneak a preview of the garden room through glazed double doors on your way through, where vistas out encourage activity and adventure.

Returning from the lounge, back through the kitchen, step out into the hallway to discover a most versatile room. Formerly used as a formal feasting room at Christmas time, this elegantly panelled, cosily carpeted room could comfortably serve as a hobby room, peaceful home office, snug, playroom or cinema room. Windows to both the back and front allow for so much light flow.

Also located along this hallway is the utility room, furnished with a sink and cupboards and space for a washer and dryer. Next door, the cloakroom accommodates a wash basin and WC.

At the top of the stairs, turn right into the master bedroom, where the sight of Rock Salt and Polished Pebble painted walls help soothe the senses in preparation for a night of rest and recuperation. Peep through to the dressing room where walls of fitted wardrobes and chests of drawers ensure that every item of clothing has its own bed for the night.

Freshen up in the fully-tiled, spa-feel ensuite. So spacious, sense the luxury with designer fittings by Bagno Design and Duravit sanitaryware.

Returning along the landing, discover the third bedroom on the left. Spacious and carpeted in pale grey, fitted blinds coat the Velux, which provides a perfect view out to the starry night sky. A bright double bedroom in the daytime, spy the built-in wardrobes and storage cupboard over the stairs - ideal for stashing toys and board games. A low cottage window furnishes this bedroom with a cosy, peaceful feel, evocative of the home's barn origins. Built in wardrobes and shelving also feature in here.

Continue along the corridor until you reach the second largest bedroom on the left. Capaciously sized and carpeted in cream, this room accommodates several freestanding items of furniture and is also blessed with built-in storage. Light saturates the space through the Velux window and through a window on the gable end, overlooking the side garden.

Next door, the family bathroom is conveniently at hand. Step onto solid Japanese oak flooring, with the option of a claw footed bath for soothing soaks or a corner shower for a refreshing morning blast. Spy designer Sottini fittings and Lefroy Brooks brassware. Luxury comes as standard.

Garden:

A garden designed for entertaining, step outside and explore the vast gardens at Stone Croft Barn.

Slide back the doors and drift into nature from the garden room. So much fun for children and adults alike; the long, enclosed driveway is ideal for a playful cricket game, whilst the large, flat lawn is the perfect football pitch.

A stable block fitted with electricity is accompanied by a paddock - ideal for equine enthusiasts, and also a great place to store the ride-on mower and logs for the wood-burner.

Whether you're relaxing in the perfectly private hot tub, dining on the decking or enjoying a barbecue with friends, Stone Croft Barn is designed to serve your pleasure. Inclement weather needn't put off your plans, not with your own rustic barbecue cabin capable of seating up to 15, sleeping three and fitted with a barbecue grate over the fire allowing for cooking use or simply for heat and ambience.

A large garage, primed and ready for conversion into independent living quarters should you require, subject to necessary planning consent, is furnished with a boiler, central heating and the same B4RN superfast broadband as the home. Above the garage, there is also a room currently used as a gym and music room. Why not convert this into a separate home office? It even has a WC.
