The Lawn Store, Ryton Village, Ryton

Jan Mitchell Properties are delighted to bring to the market this beautiful, bespoke barn conversation, that has undergone a meticulous renovation, to create a simply stunning family home, within the heart of the picturesque Old Ryton Village.

The Lawn Store is a beautifully converted stone-built barn, transformed just three years ago. This unique property retains the charm and character of its period origins while offering all the modern amenities needed for contemporary living. The barn features purpose-made wooden doors, hardwood double-glazed sliding sash windows, and original exposed stone walls and beams. These historical elements are seamlessly blended with high-specification bathroom suites, a well-appointed kitchen, herringbone wood flooring, and sleek light fittings and sockets.

The transformation of The Lawn Store was a comprehensive renovation, starting from the bare structure and resulting in the impressive, bespoke home it is today. The current owners poured their passion and attention to detail into creating a tailored, distinctive residence. The building's pristine stonework and immaculate approach give The Lawn Store outstanding kerb appeal, a level of care that continues throughout the interior.

Upon entering through the arched glazed doorway, set within the original barn's exposed stone walls, the reception hall makes a striking first impression. This generous space, which could serve as a dining room or additional sitting area, features a custom-made staircase, crafted on-site, leading to the first floor with a spacious storage cupboard beneath.

To the right, the sitting room offers a bright and airy ambiance, with windows on two sides, exposed wooden ceiling beams, and panelled alcoves flanking an inglenook fireplace with a wood burner and an impressive timber lintel above.

To the left of the reception hall, a door opens into the kitchen/dining room. The Neptune kitchen is a charming blend of modern farmhouse style, equipped with an energy-efficient recessed electric AGA oven, a Belfast sink, contemporary fitted units, an integrated dishwasher, and space for a large American-style fridge/freezer. There's ample room for a dining table and chairs, a family area with a sofa and TV, and a kitchen bench that doubles as a breakfast bar.

Adjacent to the kitchen is a highly functional utility room/pantry, offering a second sink, plumbing for a washing machine, and extensive storage with shelves reaching up to the ceiling. The kitchen also provides access to a boot room and cloakroom, complete with built-in benches, hooks, and abundant storage solutions.

Beyond the boot room is another room with a stylish en-suite shower, currently used as a study but versatile enough to serve as a downstairs bedroom, home gym, or playroom. This room also offers additional storage and has its own external access, making it a perfect self-contained space for guests, family members, or even as a rental unit.

Upstairs, there are four spacious and tastefully decorated bedrooms, two of which have built-in wardrobes. These rooms share a family bathroom featuring a fantastic walk-in shower and a Neptune oak vanity unit. The principal bedroom is a serene and inviting space, with muted tones, a vaulted ceiling with exposed timbers, and a luxurious en-suite with a bath and overhead shower. It also boasts a large walk-in wardrobe.

Externally
The property is accessed via an electrically operated gated entrance, leading to a meticulously maintained tarmac and granite cobbled driveway, providing ample parking. A standout feature is the industrial-sized garage, currently utilized as a workshop, complete with power, lighting, plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer, and a separate WC and sink at the rear. This expansive garage has the potential to accommodate a car collection or operate as a business, such as a mechanical workshop.

A well-kept lawn and patio at the front of the house offer a low-maintenance garden, perfect for outdoor relaxation. Additionally, a paved area by the boot room door provides an ideal spot for a bench to enjoy the morning sun. The property and garden are situated in a private and secluded location.
