Foxbury Barn is a beautifully presented period conversion, showcasing exquisite brick-and-flint elevations beneath a traditional tiled roof. Sensitively updated to combine contemporary comfort with rustic charm, the property retains a wealth of original character, highlighted by spectacular vaulted ceilings, intricate exposed timber framing and handsome exposed brickwork.

At the heart of the home is an expansive open-plan sitting and dining room, featuring attractive timber flooring and a striking brick chimney breast with a log-burning stove. This light and welcoming space is ideal for both everyday living and entertaining, flowing seamlessly into a delightful conservatory overlooking the gardens. The adjoining kitchen is fitted with classic shaker-style cabinetry, rich timber worktops and high-quality integrated appliances, all set beneath a soaring beamed ceiling.

The ground floor further provides two comfortable and well-proportioned bedrooms, together with a contemporary family shower room. Two separate staircases lead to the first-floor accommodation: one rises from the kitchen to a versatile home office with a mezzanine overlooking the living space below, while the main staircase ascends from the sitting room to the principal bedroom suite. This impressive retreat features exposed brick detailing, extensive built-in storage and a beautifully finished en suite bathroom with a freestanding bath.

Outside

The property is approached via a traditional five-bar timber gate opening onto a generous driveway providing parking and access to a detached double garage. The gardens are enclosed by attractive brick-and-flint walls, while a paved terrace offers an ideal setting for al fresco dining before extending onto a level lawn bordered by established planting, mature shrubs and vibrant wisteria. A delightful timber summer house and an attached log store complete this idyllic outdoor setting.
