“A quaint two bedroom converted brick barn situated in this highly desirable well- served village approximately three miles from .”

Description Believed to have been built circa 1840/1850 as a Victorian brick farm barn, it was converted to a two bedroom link detached two storey dwelling in 2002.

The neatly presented accommodation comprises: entrance hall, bathroom, two bedrooms and open-plan kitchen/diner/living room on the first floor.

The property benefits from triple glazing, Economy 10 electric heating to recently installed Rointe Kyros electric heaters and a magnificent apex vaulted beamed ceiling to the first floor open- plan kitchen/diner/living room.

Outside there are no gardens but there is the benefit of off- road parking.

An interesting feature of this property which can be seen from the outside is the original metal hoist under the gable which would have been used to elevate grain and hay into the loft of the former barn. Another point of interest, which the vendor has been informed is that locally it is reputed that the property derived its name from ancestors of Charlie Chaplin who once owned the barns.
