This meticulous, detached barn conversion, originally built in the 1800’s, is set within the owner’s 37½ acres of lush greenery. You’ll have sole use of the orchard area, and will be surrounded by fields of sheep, geese, ducks and chickens. Chilsham Barn has been renovated to a remarkable standard, with travertine marble floor and eye-catching, exposed timber framework throughout. This property is filled with character and oozes charm, but also provides guests with fresh features to create a home from home feel. Boasting traditional features combined with a contemporary design, it creates something quite magnificent.

Natural light floods the open plan living/dining room through the floor-to-ceiling, full length windows. As the sun sets, and it becomes dark outside, the large chandelier will create a cushy ambience throughout. The property is equipped with underfloor heating and a wood burner to keep you toasty even in the bitter winter. With a stylish, out-of-the-way kitchen, you’ll have a perfect setting to put your culinary skills the test and cook up a delight. When snuggled up on the sofa, you can enjoy a mug of hot chocolate and a family film on the 65” Freeview TV with Netflix.

Once you’re ready to call it a night, let the impressive, open-tread, oak stairs lead you up to the bright, galleried landing. When upstairs, you’ll discover two beautifully, minimalistic bedrooms, with high vaulted ceilings, that sing of a blissful night’s sleep. Enjoy ultimate peace and quiet in the tasteful en-suite bathrooms, with contemporary furnishings.

In the summer months, the outdoor seating area is perfect for you to enjoy a morning coffee, or an al fresco evening meal. You can sit out and watch the children play in the large grassed area, whilst you take in the beautiful, far-reaching views. Chilsham Barn is a property you don’t want to miss, it is nothing short of remarkable!
