“The Old Granary is tucked away in a lovely setting and it impressed us from the outset as it is such an attractive home full of natural light. The scale and the height of the original barn means that the space feels really generous and flows beautifully,” say the current owners.

Although the barn had already been converted, we saw an opportunity to further enhance its character and have made a number of improvements, including the addition of the bespoke, hand built breakfast kitchen made up of freestanding units, as well as the conversion of the laundry room which we’ve found extremely handy. The oak front door makes a real statement and the oak doors throughout, together with lots of other lovely features, all combine to make The Old Granary very special indeed.”

“The house and garden are ideal for entertaining as the sitting room and dining room flow together perfectly and it provides a great space for get-togethers. The garden really comes into its own in the spring with a beautiful display of cherry blossom and we enjoy eating al fresco on the pretty patio, whilst listening to the sound of birdsong and the occasional sheep in the summer months. We open the sitting room doors to the garden when it’s warm, so that it becomes an extension of the room and on colder days, the thick barn walls and fire in the sitting room become the focal point to create a cosy feel. It really is a house and garden for all seasons.”

“Eydon is a picturesque village with characterful buildings and a pretty village green. We’re surrounded by beautiful countryside with footpaths and bridleways just a short walk from the door which is especially good for dog owners and horse riders. We love walking through the grounds of Eydon Hall and the fields beyond to the pub at Culworth, or if we’re feeling less energetic, it’s just a short stroll up to the fabulous ‘Royal Oak’ pub in the village where we’re always sure of a warm welcome.”

“Although rural, nothing feels too far away with plenty of shops and takeaways in the surrounding villages and towns. The motorway and rail network are within easy reach, as are the Cotswolds and other places to visit such as Stratford-Upon-Avon, Warwick and Oxford, so it’s a location that offers the best of both worlds.”*
