Walpole Highway former cow shed and cart store converted into peaceful rural haven on the market for over £1million




This one-time cow shed and cart store has become a slick contemporary home that is just waiting for a large family to move in and enjoy all that it has to offer.

Sitting behind electric gates in almost two acres of grounds at Walpole Highway, it is a peaceful rural haven with amazing views.

As well as the main barn conversion there is a separate annexe – ideal for visiting guests, an extended family or to run as a business for extra income.

All of this is on the market for offers over £1million.

Olive Drove Barn and The Piggeries have both been designed to embrace a modern lifestyle but there are also echoes of the past with vaulted ceilings, beams and an impressive inglenook-style fireplace.

The hub of this home has to be the open plan kitchen/diner/sitting room.

With a large kitchen island, vaulted ceilings and twin bi-fold doors that open to the outside patio area, it is a stunning entertaining and living space and, at 42ft long, is the real deal when it comes to the wow factor.

The neighbouring reception room is just as impressive. Dual aspect windows allow this area to be flooded with natural light whilst the inglenook fire place creates a sense of comfort ready for cosy winter evenings.

There is also a separate reception room, offering a versatile option, used as a study or yet another sitting room.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom stands out for all the right reasons.

The vaulted ceiling and exposed beams, the synergy between exposed brick and render and an attractive Juliet balcony that gives view to stunning sunrises across the Marshland countryside.

The Piggeries is the ideal guest house. Buyers will have the option of multi-generational living or creating a business.

The same attention to detail as the main barn is present here too – vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, log burner and air conditioning units – and will make anyone’s stay here comfortable.

The double car port and double garage and plenty of parking space are the perfect finishing touch.
