An outstanding refurbished barn conversion with swimming pool and expansive storage barn set in approx. 2.85 acres close to Market Drayton.
Set along a gated driveway, Betton Lodge Barn enjoys a secluded position set within its own grounds of close to 3 acres with outstanding views across the adjoining countryside. The barn itself has undergone a programme of refurbishment works which include remodelling the ground and first floor accommodation, new Wren kitchen with integrated appliances, new bathrooms, several new windows / Velux and relandscaping the garden area. The result is an highly specified country residence which benefits from the exceptional lifestyle features of a heated indoor pool and vast outbuilding whilst only being just over 5 minutes' drive to Market Drayton. An oak front door opens to the dining hall which provides ample space for seating as well as including a feature original stone wall. Doors radiate out to the rest of the living accommodation. The sitting room is an impressive reception space with vaulted ceiling and exposed A frame beams. A recently added inglenook fireplace sits against an exposed stone wall and includes a wood burner. The open plan contemporary kitchen breakfast room is the hub of the home which includes a seating area with stable door to the terrace. The kitchen includes a range of wall, floor and island cabinetry all set beneath a solid worksurface. There are a range of integrated NEFF appliances including microwave, dishwasher, 5 ring induction hob, pop up extractor, slide and hide oven and warming drawer whilst there is also a Quooker tap. The utility has also been refitted which provides further storage as well as space for additional appliances. A boot room and guest WC complete the ground floor accommodation. Stairs rise from the kitchen to the first floor landing. The principal suite occupies one end of the first floor and includes a spacious bedroom with a bank of fitted wardrobes and excellent westerly facing views as well as a refitted en suite with double shower. The guest suite is found at the other end of the first floor and includes fitted wardrobes together with an en suite shower room and balcony. The third double bedroom is currently used as an office and benefits from the refitted family bathroom being just next door.
