Horton, Buckinghamshire, LU7

Nestled within a tranquil enclave of just nine properties, centrally located in Horton, this exquisite barn conversion, meticulously transformed by its current owners in 2016, presents expansive, luminous living spaces, impeccable craftsmanship, picturesque countryside views to Ivinghoe Beacon and the Downs. The plot spans 1.25 acres.

Approached via automated gates along a secluded driveway, the residence comprises two distinct detached barns.

Upon crossing the threshold of the primary barn, one is greeted by a sumptuous porcelain-tiled foyer, setting the tone for the residence's refined elegance. The scale of the interior is remarkable, accentuated by the soaring vaulted ceiling in the sitting room, a striking feature.

The impressive kitchen/breakfast room, boasting a substantial central island, seamlessly extends to the garden through bifold doors, offering uninterrupted panoramic views of the surrounding rural landscape. Adorned with a comprehensive suite of integrated appliances, including dual ovens, a coffee machine, dishwasher, and fridge/freezer, this culinary haven is complimented by a convenient utility room. Flowing effortlessly from the kitchen, the expansive sitting room bathes in natural light courtesy of its three sets of bifold doors, which overlook the central courtyard.

The primary bedroom suite, mirroring the guest suite, occupies the upper level of the barn, accessible via individual staircases. Each suite features contemporary en suites with luxurious amenities, accompanied by discreet walk-in dressing rooms concealed behind frosted glass double sliding doors.

Situated in the east wing of the residence, the remaining two double bedrooms on the ground floor are served by a stylish shower room.

Across the central courtyard lies the secondary barn, encompassing nearly 1,000 sq ft. Currently utilised as a garage for classic cars, it is thoughtfully designed for versatility, incorporating a shower room and office, facilitating effortless conversion into splendid guest accommodations or independent living quarters for adolescents or elderly relatives.

Outside, the manicured gardens envelop both barns, predominantly laid to lawn, with ample parking space for more than ten vehicles on the expansive driveway. The central courtyard, a secluded suntrap, connects the two barns, while a charming duck pond and two large sheds add to the outdoor allure. The fenced paddock provides an ideal setting for equestrian pursuits and there is ample space to create stabling.
