Overview. Built at the turn of the century, Barrow is an exceptional family home that is ready for a buyer to move into with a classical design in keeping with its age. There is ample charm and character throughout, coupled with flexibility within the accommodation and storage aplenty.

As soon as you walk up the gravel drive and through the front door into the entrance hall, you get a sense of what is on offer. Stripped wood floors, heigh ceilings and a beautiful staircase are a great first impression. On the right is the double aspect sitting room, with its bay to the front and french doors to the side which lead you to the terrace. The wood burner is the feature of the room and is perfect for those winter nights. Off the sitting room is the playroom which like many rooms, has a beautiful view to the rear. The kitchen and dining room benefits from a triple aspect, with the kitchen featuring solid oak units with granite work tops, range style cooker and built in appliances. The dining area can comfortably accommodate a ten-person table.

To the rear of the entrance hall is a WC and also a door that provides access to the cellar. Unlike most cellars, the space is certainly useable, with replacement windows, five rooms including a utility room and ample storage. This room provides the space for the washing facilities and is perfectly positioned to access the outside steps which take you to the drying area and the rear of the garage.

On the first floor there are three bedrooms and the family bathroom. The guest bedroom is located at the front and benefits from built in wardrobes and an en-suite. Bedrooms three and four are a good size, with bedroom four currently being used as an office. To the rear is a WC and a family bathroom. All the bathrooms have been remodelled to provide a modem and contemporary feel, perfectly complementing the character of the home. French doors to the front of the first floor lead you to a balcony which spans the width of the home. Stairs rise to the second floor and the main bedroom. Measuring approximately 30 x 14, this excellent room is the calming spot of the home and enjoys a double aspect and in addition, two velux windows for further light. There is built in wardrobes and plenty of eaves storage.

Outside, the majority of the garden is located off the sitting room. Steps take you to the terrace which flows perfectly into the lawn area and is enclosed from the front of the house by hedging. There is also a large front garden area and ample parking in front of the house and the garage. The garage provides power and additional storage under the pitched roof.
