Denise White Estate Agents Comments - Believed to date back to the mid-17th century, this impressive Grade II listed barn conversion offers a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial character home with the added benefit of a separate one-bedroom holiday cottage, currently operating successfully as a holiday let. Combining exceptional period features with versatile living space and beautiful countryside views, the property provides a unique and highly desirable lifestyle opportunity.

The main residence opens into an entrance hall which leads into a truly outstanding living room, an exceptional entertaining space defined by its dramatic double-height ceiling and galleried landing above. The room is rich in character, featuring magnificent exposed beams, a striking fireplace with large log burner, and expansive windows to the front which flood the space with natural light. French doors open to the rear garden, while the property's position provides delightful views across the playing fields and rolling hills beyond, all while remaining immersed in the building's remarkable heritage.

The spacious kitchen diner is fitted with ample cabinetry, butcher block worktops, and a traditional Belfast sink, creating a warm and practical heart to the home. Doors lead directly to the rear garden, and the space is further complemented by a useful utility room and ground floor WC.

In addition to the principal living areas, the ground floor benefits from two further generously sized reception rooms which offer excellent versatility. Currently used as a gym and games room, these spaces could equally serve as ground floor double bedrooms, a playroom, formal dining room, or home office depending on individual requirements.

To the first floor, an impressive galleried landing overlooks the living room below, providing a wonderful sense of space and architectural character. The main bedroom sits to one side of the property and benefits from its own ensuite which boasts views towards Riber Castle. On the opposite side are two further double bedrooms along with a well-appointed family bathroom. Each bedroom features vaulted ceilings and exposed beams, enhancing the barn's unique charm.

Externally, the property enjoys an enclosed rear garden designed for ease of maintenance, with an initial composite decking area ideal for seating and entertaining, leading onto a turfed lawn beyond. A separate gated section is currently utilised as a log store, providing practical outdoor storage.

A significant additional feature of the property is the charming one-bedroom holiday cottage. Well presented and thoughtfully arranged, it offers a double-height breakfast kitchen, a cosy living room with a spiral staircase leading to the bedroom above, and an ensuite bathroom. From the bedroom there are delightful views towards Riber Castle, making it an attractive and memorable stay for guests.

Altogether, this remarkable property represents an exciting opportunity for buyers seeking a distinctive period home steeped in history, complemented by versatile accommodation and the added benefit of an established holiday cottage income.
