Full Description: James Seymour is delighted to bring to market this versatile spacious two/three bedroom barn conversion, boasting stunning views on a generous plot in the quiet hamlet of Prestleigh, complete with a detached office.<br /><br /><br />The Second Barn was converted from an agricultural barn in 1996 and still maintains elements of its past life throughout, with wooden beams above some windows and outside stone steps leading to what was once the old hay loft.<br /><br /><br />It has been thoroughly modernised under the current ownership, with a new garage conversion, kitchen, boiler and windows, creating a fantastic home either as a permanent residence or part-time retreat with lock-up-and-leave capabilities.<br /><br /><br />The barn is in an elevated position tucked well away from the main road in Prestleigh but is still very close to Shepton Mallet's main shops and Castle Cary train station, where there are regular services to London Paddington, Bristol and Bath.<br /><br /><br />Upon entering, the ground floor is thoughtfully laid out providing versatile spaces for both relaxation and entertaining. The living room offers a comfortable area to unwind with stunning views, while an additional sitting room presents opportunities for a cosy homely space perfect for evenings or could become the third bedroom depending on buyers' desire. The kitchen is well-proportioned, feeling open and fresh with plenty of natural light, and space for the Rangemaster cooker, integrated fridge/freezer, washing machine and dishwasher.<br /><br /><br />The first floor contains two large double bedrooms creating a comfortable yet practical space, both with en-suite shower rooms. The second bedroom has a private sun terrace which the original hay loft steps lead up to; a perfect place to relax and enjoy the stunning views with a morning coffee or evening drink.<br /><br /><br />Externally, the front of the property has a large off road driveway as you approach the picturesque Second Barn, complete with a large stone pond with an electric fountain and lights.<br /><br />To rear is a part lawn and stoned area with peaceful and striking views perfect for hosting gatherings with family and friends or relaxing while soaking in the peace and tranquillity Prestleigh offers buyers. The large sliding doors in the additional sitting room lead onto a patioed area with a hot tub, far away from prying eyes with the perfect view of the Mendip Hills.<br /><br />Council Tax Band: E<br />Tenure: Freehold
