  • Brooklands Court, Bagstone Road, Bagstone, GL12 8BD £995,000 Brooklands Court, Bagstone Road, Bagstone, GL12 8BD
    Brooklands Court, Bagstone Road, Bagstone, GL12 8BD £995,000 Brooklands Court, Bagstone Road, Bagstone, GL12 8BD Positioned in the North West corner of a generous rectangular plot, Brooklands Court is a substantial and much extended five bedroom Barn Conversion. Formerly part of the original farm, what was once a much smaller barn has been renovated from the ground up with two additional wings added by the current owners, to now form a hugely impressive country residence. It now offers a flexibility of accommodation hard to rival, with easily separated sections of the property for guests and relatives, and notably for a barn conversion provides a good degree of light, modern touches including under floor heating throughout, yet retains the features you would hope to find including exposed beams, high ceilings and exposed stonework. Ground Floor The main front entrance opens to a reception hall, which acts as the central point of the property with ground floor cloakroom, central staircase, two of the receptions rooms and kitchen to one side and bedrooms, living room and bathrooms to the other. Engineered Oak Flooring now continues throughout most of the ground floor, to the highly impressive sitting room, open plan with the adjacent dining room, with A frame beams, full length window to the front elevation and set under a minstrels gallery accessed from upstairs. Steps down then leads to the kitchen and separate utility room. This forms one of the properties centrepieces with a large central island, range oven, a mixture of granite and oak work surfaces and a dual aspect which looks over the grounds.
