DESCRIPTION
Gradeley Green Barn is constructed of Cheshire brick under a red tile roof and for the most part arranged over two floors. The property has been recently modernised and has the benefit of double glazing throughout and whilst modernised, it still retains much of its original character & charm with exposed timbers, exposed trusses, vaulted ceilings & porthole windows, the combination of which now offers a lovely family home.
A decorative oak storm porch opens into a large dining hall which extends the full width of the house with oak boarded floor and dual aspect. To the right of the dining hall is a lovely large sitting room which is a light & airy living space with triple aspect, including a large picture window overlooking the front garden & drive. The sitting room has an attractive Karndean wood effect floor and central feature fireplace with tiled surround and Bronpi woodburning stove built-in. From sitting room, a door opens into the kitchen which is a relatively new addition compared to the original footprint of the house and provides for a light and airy space with vaulted ceiling, exposed timbers & trusses and triple aspect. The first half of the room is the working kitchen which has a range of fitted wall and base units under quartz worksurfaces and has the benefit of a central island with space for breakfast bar/dining table off. Within the kitchen units there is a 1½ bowl stainless steel sink unit with drainer, 5-ring Schott and Ceran induction hob, dual CDA electric ovens, Beko dishwasher and large CDA fridge & freezer unit. At the far end of the room is the seating area, from which there is a set of double French doors onto the patio garden at the front of the house, which allows for a lovely flow when entertaining, particularly in the summer months. To the left of the dining hall is the turned staircase, adjacent to which is a cloakroom/w.c. with low flush w.c. and hand basin. Opposite the cloakroom is a snug which has single aspect and could also be used as a playroom or office. At the end of the hall is the utility room which has laminate floor, bank of fitted units/cloaks cupboards, fitted base units to two walls. The units have plumbing for washing machine & tumble dryer along with sink unit. Off the utility are two similar sized rooms which are presently used as a study and library but they have the ability to be opened into one room and used as further living space. Also within the utility is a boot room area with bench seat and door to outside.
From the hall the turned the staircase leads to the first-floor landing which runs almost the whole length of the house and from which all bedrooms are accessed. To the very left of the landing is the master bedroom which is a large double room with vaulted ceiling, exposed timber & trusses with an attractive porthole window. Within the master bedroom is an en-suite shower room which has a tiled floor, part tiled walls, low flush w.c., built-in hand basin and glazed shower with Heritage fittings. Adjacent to the shower room is a dressing room with two built-in clothes rails and shelving above. Against the back of the house are 3 similarly sized bedrooms, two of which are capable of being double bedrooms, albeit one used currently as a study, and the fifth bedroom has the benefit of built-in wardrobes and window seat but still provides a large single bedroom. Opposite bedroom 5 is the family bathroom which has tiled floor, part tiled walls, rolltop bath, low flush w.c., hand basin and heated towel rail. At the end of the landing is bedroom 2 which is of similar proportions to the main bedroom with vaulted ceiling, exposed timbers and dual aspect to include another porthole window which has a pleasant aspect over the front garden and across the adjoining countryside. Within bedroom 2 there is an en-suite shower with tiled floor & walls, low flush w.c., built-in hand basin with cupboard below and glazed shower cubicle.
OUTSIDE
From the lane a set of electric double gate open onto to a gravelled drive which is edged with stone sets and extends past the house to a wide parking turning area against the outbuilding. Against the drive there are a series of shrub & flower beds and at the front of the house are particularly attractive cherry tree. To the left of the drive is a large lawned garden edged with evergreen hedging & trees and has the ability to be subdivided and fencing to cater for a horse/pony
with field shelter, should that be required. Against the drive
there are a series of smaller recently planted saplings and fruit
trees to include apple, damson, plum & pear. The principal entertaining area is at the front of the house and off the kitchen and forms an attractive and well-designed patio garden with Indian stone paving throughout, edged with stoned areas and offers a very private space which is orientated to take best advantage of the afternoon and evening sun.
Beyond the house and adjacent to the parking area is the
outbuilding which is single storey and constructed of a
combination of block & brick with part cladded elevations
under a wooden tiled floor. The outbuilding is essentially
divided into two parts, the left-hand half being the ancillary
accommodation and the right-hand half being a double garage. The garage has two separate manual up-and-over doors and has a concrete base with light & power to the building with fitted workbench to one corner. To the right of the garage there is a well screened bin store which also has an electric car charging point.
