As we became more familiar with the vicinity, we discovered this beautiful house in its delightful hamlet. Low Bradfield with its cricket green and reservoir walks is only two miles away. We enjoy all the advantages of being close to the city, but also to the nearby village of Oughtibridge which has excellent amenities, including an outstanding primary school, a village shop and post office alongside a restaurant and sociable pubs. It was everything we could possibly desire and South Barn has been our much loved family home for the past thirty five years.” “Over the years we have enhanced our home with a new kitchen and bathrooms, wooden window frames and, one particular feature, very special to us, was the installation of a hand carved, oak fire surround. It is very much a family home; our two sons grew up here and had all the advantages of living in this rural idyll, with freedom to explore the local environs in total safety.” “Every room is special to us but our main reception room has an open fire and is so cosy. It also features a window seat which gives us our panoramic outlook. We never tire of sitting here and enjoy watching the seasons unfold.” “Being located along this quiet lane, the only sounds we hear are that of birdsong or the occasional passing tractor. We do appreciate having access to many local footpaths on our doorstep and enjoy walking in the outstandingly beautiful surrounding countryside” Our kitchen has French windows leading to our patio which is perfect for outdoor dining. We have enjoyed summer BBQs, many large family gatherings at Christmastime and Easter. We held our 40th wedding anniversary party here which was a very happy occasion.” “It is for family reasons that we are saying farewell to our lovely home. We will both leave with heavy hearts, but have many treasured memories of family life here with our sons and grandchildren. We hope that whoever decides to live here will be as happy and content as we have been.” * * These comments are the personal views of the current owner and are included as an insight into life at the property.
