The Property
Set in a peaceful rural setting with far-reaching views across open countryside, The March Barn is a striking stone-built conversion clad in local stone and designed to sit comfortably within its surroundings. Extending to over 3,300 sq. ft. of single-storey living space, the layout includes four bedrooms, a study, a gym, and a substantial open-plan kitchen, dining and living area at its core. A private courtyard, landscaped gardens and a large agricultural-style outbuilding add further appeal, making this an impressive yet understated property well suited to a discerning buyer seeking space, privacy and comfort.

Finished to a high standard throughout, the interior combines natural stone and timber to create a grounded, organic feel. Deep-set windows and vaulted ceilings enhance the sense of light and space, while underfloor heating runs throughout the property. A full-height glazed entrance introduces a tactile material palette that continues inside through stone flooring, exposed beams and muted, earthy tones. The expansive kitchen, dining and family room is the central space, arranged around a bespoke Neptune kitchen with Corian worktops and integrated appliances. A large island provides a natural anchor to the space, which flows through clearly defined dining and seating areas. An array of windows frames far-reaching countryside views and brings in natural light throughout the day, while sliding doors open directly onto the south-facing courtyard.

Beyond the kitchen, a more intimate sitting room with a vaulted ceiling and wood-burning stove offers a relaxed, quieter space, with bi-fold doors opening directly to the outside and offering a wide-angle connection to the surrounding landscape. A study sits nearby, along with a boot room and utility room providing practical support to the main living areas. There is also a guest WC off the hallway.

The principal bedroom lies at the far end of the house, enjoying direct access to the courtyard and open views across the valley. Adjacent to it, a fully equipped gym includes rubber flooring, mirrored walls, glazed doors opening onto the terrace, and its own private en-suite shower room. Two further double bedrooms are arranged along the hallway, each with its own en-suite bathroom, one of which also benefits from a dedicated dressing room. A beautifully styled family bathroom is located nearby, finished with verdigris green porcelain tiling, a freestanding copper bath, a large walk-in rain shower and a built-in sauna, creating a spa-like atmosphere with a distinct design focus. Bathrooms throughout the property feature multiple rain showers and high-quality fittings, all finished with a focus on comfort and design. The fourth bedroom lies to the opposite end of the house and is well suited as a guest suite or quiet retreat. Deep blue walls, vaulted ceilings with exposed beams and a natural stone floor lend the space a cocooning, luxurious feel, while a freestanding claw-foot bath adds to its appeal.

Externally
The grounds of The March Barn extend to approximately 0.69 acres, with landscaped front and rear lawned gardens framed by stone walls, clipped hedging and mature trees. A gravelled driveway provides ample parking and leads to the house, which is positioned to make the most of its tranquil rural setting.

At the centre of the home, a sheltered south-facing courtyard forms a peaceful and highly private outdoor living space. Enclosed by cedar-clad walls and deep eaves supported by dark metal columns, the space feels both architectural and inviting. Pale stone paving runs throughout, softened by curved planting beds with ornamental grasses and flowering perennials. Generous seating areas on either side offer a natural extension of the interior, ideal for al fresco dining or simply enjoying the uninterrupted views across the valley.

A covered log store sits discreetly to one side, while a large steel portal-frame agricultural building provides further flexibility. Currently used for storage, it has its own new water and electricity connections with meters, and is also connected to the treatment plant, making it ready for a variety of future uses. It offers clear potential for garaging, workshop use or conversion (subject to the necessary consents).

Agents Note
The property is connected to a shared treatment plant, with an annual service charge payable. Please enquire for more details.
