The barn is believed to date from the 1820's, built from brick and timber frame under a pitched pan tiled roof and offers flexible accommodation throughout.

The next door study is partially vaulted with French doors out to the garden. The kitchen is across the hall and has wooden base and wall mounted units and exposed studwork, leading in to the sitting room which has a multi-fuel burner. The rear hall houses the large utility room, cloakroom and boot room as well as giving access to the well proportioned drawing room. Beyond the drawing room are two bedrooms and a shower room.

The first floor is reached via a wrought iron staircase leading to 4 bedrooms and 2 bath/shower rooms (1 en suite).
