Kimpton Road, Codicote, Hitchin, Hertfordshire, SG4

Stylish barn conversion in about 0.65 of an acre.

Description

Situated in a semi rural location halfway between the popular villages of Codicote and Kimpton, this charming Grade II listed barn has been sympathetically converted to offer a stylish and characterful beamed interior with refurbished modern fitments and is presented in excellent decorative order. The property sits within grounds that extend to about 0.65 acres and enjoys fine views over the gardens and countryside beyond.

A large double height entrance hall takes advantage of extensive glazing for natural light and features a tiled floor and "radiator seat". To the rear of the hallway there is a study and there are three bedrooms and a refurbished family bathroom with marble floor tiles, claw foot bath and shower cubicle, with the principal bedroom having an en suite bathroom.

Stairs with glass balustrade lead to the dramatic vaulted first floor living area that features extensive exposed beams and is well lit with roof light and casement windows. The centrally located sitting area has a modern log burning stove and at one end there is a study area beyond exposed vertical wall studs. A dining area leads through to the modern and well planned kitchen with extensive handleless cabinets and an island with stone work surfaces. Integrated appliances include Miele gas hob and double electric ovens, dishwasher, wine fridge and Samsung American style fridge freezer.

The barn is approached by a gated sweeping driveway that affords a real sense of arrival. A gravelled parking area leads to the detached double garage with electric car charging point. The garage contains plumbing for a washing machine and a cloakroom and offers scope for conversion to additional accommodation subject to obtaining the necessary planning consent. There is a lawned front garden behind the garage and a patio area located to take advantage of views across the extensive lawns toward the orchard area from which the barn derives its name. Within the garden there is an interesting former sauna building and a garden shed. Beyond the fenced boundary of the garden, farmland stretches as far as the eye can see.
