A charming Grade II Listed barn conversion occupying an idyllic and secluded rural setting within the Dedham Vale AONB
Description
Scotland Place Farm was converted in 2009 to an exceptional standard with much attention to detail, creating an individual home of great character. The fabulous vaulted AGA kitchen / breakfast room takes full advantage of the attractive triple aspect outlook, particularly to the front via full height glazing which overlooks the entire front garden. The conversion has a contemporary edge, yet the integrity of building is clearly retained, and the exposed oak frame is particularly impressive. Beyond the central hall with utility and wet room off is the study and sitting room which gives further views along the Box Valley. The principal first floor bedrooms are accessed via the sitting room which provides an end double bedroom and family bathroom with 2 further bedrooms. Via a stylish spiral staircase in the kitchen / breakfast room is a further double bedroom within the attic space.
The barn has a distinctive 4-bay loggia where 2 bays give a recessed storage area / carport. The main garden is to the front (south-west) which consists of a large expanse of lawn with a mature ash tree and adjacent parking area to one side. The boundaries clearly defined by established field hedges and timber post and rail fencing to the west. Positioned on its own to the end of a private drive which serves just one immediate neighbour, Scotland Place Farm gives an appealing feel of seclusion, yet it is not isolated. In all, the property covers some 0.4 acres. No onward chain.
