Plot 3 - Long Barn
Click to enlarge image
Long Barn, as it suggests, takes it's name from the shape of the building.
Much altered over the years, it probably took its present shape around the mid 18th century and most recently was used for stabling and pheasant rearing. The featured roof trusses in the lounge and kitchen area are very old and probably part of an original timber framed building. Their shape and construction suggest early medieval construction.
One benefit of the overall length of the building is the large enclosed rear garden, which gives direct access to the covered parking for two vehicles.

The galley style kitchen is the first room to greet you as you enter the property. has been designed to maximize the useable space and incorporates a wealth of features. The overall look is enhanced by questionably the most interesting and oldest oak beam on the site – a magnificent feature. The front and rear doors are both half glazed with full height glazed side panels through which the natural light pours in giving the room a light and airy feel. Artificial light is via down lights in the vaulted ceiling and wall lights. Consumer boxes are positioned on the front wall at high level, out of the way.
The two outstanding features of the lounge are the beamed ceiling and the newly constructed Inglenook fireplace. The fireplace has been constructed from red bricks and oak beams, both re-claimed from the site and has subtle lighting via down lights positioned within the fireplace. A gas supply has been provided for those who who prefer instant heat, but the flue is class 1 and therefore suitable for multi fuel heat. The room has two windows, one overlooking the front of the property and one overlooking the rear. Artificial light is via wall lights. There are ample electrical sockets and TV points on either side of the fireplace.
Bedroom 1 has a beamed ceiling and front facing window, additional natural light is via a roof light. Artificial lighting from wall lights. There are five double sockets, TV and telephone points. Off the bedroom is the en-suite (only marginally smaller than the main bathroom) which offers the facility of walk in shower cubicle, pedestal washbasin, w.c. and heated towel rail. A second roof light provides natural light. The room will have complimentary tiling to the walls and floor.
Bedrooms 2 and 3 are both double bedrooms, identical in size with front facing windows. They both have original ceiling beams running the width of the room. There are three wall lights, five double sockets and a TV point.
The main bathroom has a bath with shower over, pedestal washbasin, w.c. and heated towel rail. Again, it will be finished with complimentary wall and floor tiling and has the benefit of natural light via a roof light.
