The Old Barn is situated within a beautiful peaceful and tranquil setting amongst glorious countryside. The far reaching views towards the Malvern Hills immediately captivate and create the feeling of calm and relaxation. About a mile away in the village of Pendock, there is a village store, post office and primary school. The nearby town of Ledbury, just a few miles drive away, offers a wonderful range of independent shops, primary school, secondary school, cottage hospital, leisure facilities and is home to the renowned annual poetry festival. There are excellent rail links to Birmingham New Street and to London Paddington, while access to the motorway network, via junction 2 of the M50 is less than 3 miles drive from the property with Gloucester, Worcester, Cheltenham and Hereford all within easy commuting distance.
The Old Barn (previously known as Holiday Farm Barn) dates back to the 1400's and is a fantastic example of a cruck barn (a construction based on curved timbers which are set upright at the side of a building). Indeed, the Old Barn is only one of fourteen cruck buildings in Worcestershire in which five or more cruck pairs survive and is a clear indication of the longevity of carpentry techniques of its time. Extended and converted in approximately 2002, the property offers spacious, modern open plan living. The main living area, vast in proportions, has a beautifully crafted bespoke oak kitchen with a central island, butler sink, integral dishwasher and electric range cooker. The dining hall sits between the kitchen and living room, making it ideal for modern day entertaining, whilst the living room situated at the far end, gives full view to the length and impressive height of the barn and its fabulous exposed beams and timbers. From the main section of the house, a door leads to a separate hallway to give access to the utility and cloak room (from which you can also access the rear of the property). Doors lead off from the hallway to a family bathroom and four bedrooms, of which the master bedroom gives access to an en-suite bathroom, and a full height loft room. On the first floor is the fifth bedroom, which has far reaching views over the open countryside. It has its own landing and large storage / wardrobe and shower room, making it ideal to use as separate guest accommodation or perhaps for older children.
The property sits within approximately 0.4 of an acre and is approached via an extensive gravelled driveway which has space for several cars. There is a path that leads to the side and rear of the property, where there is a courtyard seating area. To the side of the property is the main garden which is mainly laid to lawn and again provides those stunning views over the surrounding countryside. There is a large storage shed and to the other side of the property there is a carport, currently used for storage. It is worth noting that the paddocks adjacent to the property are available for rent and are large enough to accommodate several horses.
Council Tax Band: G, Malvern Hills District Council.
Mains water (metered); mains electricity; septic tank.
Oil-fired central heating.
The property is Grade II listed.
