Equidistant to the villages of Hoby and Thrussington, The Granary which once formed part of a farmstead now enjoys open countryside views and shares its special setting with three, highly individual family homes.
Stylishly presented throughout and with period charm the property has been further improved by the current owners suiting the demands of a growing family. This substantial, five-bedroom detached barn, not subject to a listed status stands in mature grounds of 1.43 acres and being set well back from the road enjoys a high degree of privacy. The expansive, northwest facing gardens wrap around the property, encompassing a paddock, spinney, and a picturesque stream. A detached triple garage with a room above presents exciting potential for further development, ideal for creating annexe accommodation or a versatile workspace. Large, floor to ceiling windows flood the barn with natural light and with its free-flowing design has a spacious, open plan feel. Five reception rooms and a large island kitchen are centred around an impressive, double height dining hall with open first floor gallery. Two staircases provide access to five, first floor double bedrooms which are complimented by four bathroom/shower rooms two of which have been stylishly refitted. Viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the size and position of this exceptional home.
