Sellers Insight: “Pound Barn was a bit of a leap of faith,” say the owners. “I fell in love with it at first sight and called my husband, saying, ‘There is a lake and garaging for 15 cars,’ and he simply replied, ‘Buy it!’ I made the offer before he had even seen it, and when the family finally visited, they were delighted.” Situated in the hamlet of West End, near Wickwar, Pound Barn, originally forming part of a working farm dating back to the 15th or 16th century, occupies an idyllic setting approached through gates and a sweeping driveway. Set within almost nine acres of grounds, the property enjoys a wonderfully peaceful position. “We love waking up to views over the lake,” the owners say. “It feels wonderfully rural, with just the sound of running water and the occasional baa-ing of sheep, yet there are neighbours nearby and a real sense of community.” Characterful Cotswold stone walls run throughout much of the interior, lending warmth and charm while helping to keep the rooms pleasantly cool in summer. “We've tried to future-proof the property,” they say. “We've upgraded the electrics, replaced the roof over the larger garage, installed solar panels with battery storage and benefit from our own borehole, so water restrictions don't affect us. It's an environmentally friendly house with lower running costs.” The extensive outbuildings and large amounts of parking offer exceptional versatility. “There is huge potential here,” the owners say. “The art gallery can seat more than 70 guests, and a friend even held his wedding reception here. It could lend itself to business uses, subject to any necessary permissions.” With an adjoining two-bedroom cottage, they add. “It works beautifully for extended family, but it could equally suit guests or independent living – it’s a great multi-generational living property.” Outside, the grounds are undoubtedly a highlight. “Our favourite places are the hammock beneath the weeping willow, the jetty overlooking the lake and the hot tub in the courtyard,” they say. “The sunsets over the water are beautiful, and there is nothing better than sitting outside with a glass of wine and watching the stars.” “We'll miss our wonderful neighbours most of all,” the owners reflect. “We've hosted festivals, dog days and gatherings, and everyone looks out for one another. But we will also miss the lake, the gardens and the feeling of peace that Pound Barn brings every single day.”
