Dry Gap Barn is an exquisite, Grade II Listed, 3 bedroom detached country home in a stunning position and a highly sought after location, all set within a plot of 1.24 acres. Offering unique, bespoke architecture together with ample space both inside and out, this property even includes planning for further development too. With a further, separate workshop / home-office / utility space (which could easily become a self-contained annexe / guest suite), gorgeous gardens and grounds, ample parking space with EV charging and an extensive gated driveway entrance, this is truly an incredible family home. At the heart of Dry Gap Barn lies an awe-inspiring living space that perfectly captures the essence of this exceptional Grade II Listed conversion. Framed by an extraordinary medieval-style A-frame cruck structure, the magnificent, vaulted interior showcases a breath-taking network of hand-hewn oak trusses, principal rafters and substantial cross beams-each bearing the unique character and craftsmanship of centuries past. These remarkable timbers are not only a defining architectural feature but also a rare testament to traditional English barn construction, creating a dramatic centrepiece that is both historically significant and visually captivating. Soaring to the apex of the roof, the impressive frame creates an incredible sense of volume and openness, while carefully positioned rooflights bathe the space in natural light, accentuating the rich textures of the aged oak and original stonework. Complemented by traditional lime plaster walls. The result is an interior of exceptional scale, warmth and atmosphere. Thoughtfully restored and sensitively enhanced, the barn effortlessly marries its agricultural heritage with contemporary design. A striking mezzanine level overlooks the principal reception space, offering an elegant perspective of the spectacular roof structure, while bespoke architectural elements have been carefully introduced to complement, rather than compete with, the historic fabric of the building. The expansive open-plan living and entertaining space is both inviting and inspiring, with a contemporary wood-burning stove adding warmth and ambience beneath the soaring timbers. Every detail has been carefully considered to preserve the authenticity of this remarkable building whilst providing the comfort and sophistication expected of a modern country home. Dry Gap Barn is far more than a conversion; believed to be the last remaining cruck-framed barn in the North West of England it is clearly of special architectural interest in a national context (source Historic England), it is a rare opportunity to own an architectural masterpiece where history, craftsmanship and contemporary luxury exist in perfect harmony. Homes possessing such an exceptional and beautifully preserved timber frame are seldom offered to the market, making this a truly remarkable residence in Turn Village, one of Ramsbottom's most sought-after rural settings. Our Vendor's comments: I have loved the barn since I was a child, living across the lane. When the chance came up for us to convert it into a wonderful home we felt lucky to have the opportunity, our children have grown up in this magical setting. We chose eco-friendly sustainable options for the conversion of the barn & separate annexe; ground source heating, solar, thermal insulation & private water supply from a borehole. The barn is an absolute joy to live in with ambient constant temperature, thick stone walls & underfloor heating throughout both buildings. Cosy in the winter, cool in the heat of summer. We also carefully considered the gardens & land surrounding; rewilded the meadow which is now abundant in a huge variety of grasses & British wild meadow flowers including ox-eye daisies, everlasting sweetpeas & yellow rattle... it buzzes with biodiversity, the barn owl flying over is a regular sight. We have aimed for a naturalistic, low intervention garden to suit the barn's aesthetic. The barn & garden has uninterrupted far reaching views over Holcombe Hill, Peel tower & beyond, the sunsets are spectacular. As a family we are relocating & the barn is ready for the next custodians to enjoy living in this unique historical building & gardens Open Plan Living / Dining / Breakfast Kitchen - 10.12m x 13.21m (33'2 x 43'4) - Snug / Potential Bed 4 - 4.88m x 3.68m (16'0 x 12'1) - Shower Room - 1.78m x 1.65m (5'10 x 5'5) - Pantry / Utility Room - 1.39m x 2.52m (4'7 x 8'3) - Wc - 1.40m x 0.89m (4'7 x 2'11) - Bedroom 1 - 4.48m x 4.71m (14'8 x 15'5) - Dressing Room - 1.17m x 1.64m (3'10 x 5'5) - En-Suite Shower Room - 1.70m x 2.85m (5'7 x 9'4) - Bedroom 2 - 5.80m x 4.53m (19'0 x 14'10) - Bedroom 3 - 4.69m x 3.88m (15'5 x 12'9) - Detached Workshop / Utility - 3.69m x 9.39m (12'1 x 30'10) - Agents Notes - Council Tax: Band 'F'.

No chain! Brook House is an idyllic, one of a kind home where no detail has been overlooked and no expense has been spared. The property showcases over 5,000 sq ft of luxurious accommodation, situated on a gated 1.1 acre plot amidst the peaceful Lancashire countryside. Despite its tranquil countryside setting, it's a well-connected location, with the national motorway network accessible in only 5 to 10 minutes, and plentiful amenities within a short drive. There are many aspects which make this property one of a kind. The smart-home and eco-home technology. The opulent interior design crafted with the finest materials. The tasteful blend of contemporary and character styling. The generous landscaped grounds with natural garden lake and rockface. The babbling brook flowing by the easterly boundary. The list goes on! Accommodation Summary - A summary of the ground floor includes a grand entrance hall with porch, principal lounge with home cinema capability, family room, dining area, a fully integrated Siematic kitchen with island and bar, utility, study, boot room, downstairs WC, and two handy storage rooms/closets (one off the dining area, and one off the boot room). The first floor features a gallery landing with vaulted ceiling, three double en-suite bedrooms, a master suite with private dressing area/boudoir, walk-in wardrobe, and mezzanine master bathroom, plus a balcony spanning the full width of the house with lovely green views. There is a substantial converted basement consisting of two rooms - a plant/comms room, and a versatile room which would be perfect for use as a wine cellar. Separate from the main house is an additional building consisting of a detached double garage and a large home gym with terrace overlooking the natural garden lake, which holds excellent potential for a variety of uses. Outstanding Design - Formerly a public house dating back to the early 1800s, this property has undergone significant redevelopment and been transformed into a signature residential property with outstanding design, both inside and out, where interiors have been masterfully crafted by the award-winning interior design and architectural studio 'Design by Uber'. From the polished marble bathrooms and crystal-effect stone feature walls, the stone and oak flooring, to the designer chandeliers and grand vaulted ceilings, every detail contributes to creating a true wow-factor. The house has also been designed with practicality in mind, benefitting from a floor plan that flows perfectly for both everyday life and when entertaining family and friends, while taking full advantage of the landscaped grounds through an abundance of glass. Additionally, there are plenty of smart-home features that give convenience for daily life, such as underfloor heating throughout with independent control for every room, an integrated indoor and outdoor sound system, mood lighting, remote controlled black-out curtains and blinds, and a comprehensive security system with CCTV and intercom for the electric gates. Well prepared for the ongoing transition to green energy, and having the advantage of long-term energy savings, the heating system is powered by two air-source heat pumps, with a heat recovery system which optimises the efficiency of the pumps. The Approach - On the country lane, a tall hedgerow adjoins a stone wall and two stone pillars set beside the electric gates, creating a beautiful entrance and a great sense of privacy. Beyond the gates a large drive bordered by manicured lawns sits in front of the house, providing lots of space for parking, and continues further to the detached double garage on the left. An Abundance Of Living Space - There are two entrances to the property at the front, one being the main front door, which is ideal for guests, leading through a traditional porch and into the grand entrance hall, and the other being a more practical, daily entrance to the meet the demands of modern family life, leading through the boot room, past the downstairs WC, and into the kitchen. The principal lounge is super generous in size, spanning the full depth of the property. It's no surprise it is presented to impeccable standards, with a hidden home cinema system including integrated ceiling speakers, and an Epson projector and Sapphire screen that descend from the ceiling. Draw the black-out curtains with a touch of a button on the remote, and you have the complete big screen experience from the comfort of your own home. As well as the home cinema, a set of bifold doors makes the most of the views to the garden, and the chimney breast is home to a log burner and wall-mounted TV point. The heart of the home is arguably the top of the range Siematic kitchen, grounded by a smart limestone floor. A substantial island with Corian worktop and oak breakfast bar allows the room to be a superb social space, and the comprehensive range of high quality appliances are housed within contemporary two-tone cabinetry. Integrated cooking appliances include a Miele oven, steam oven, combination microwave, and two warming drawers, plus a Siemens induction hob and downdraft extractor. There's also a full length fridge and freezer, Miele wine cooler, Siemens dishwasher, and Caple sink with Quooker tap. Off the kitchen the spacious Siematic utility room ensures you can keep the kitchen tidy and clutter-free with additional storage cupboards and worktop space, an extra Caple sink, and plenty of room to do the laundry with plumbing for the washer/dryer. Adjacent to here is also a study with a window to the front, which would alternatively be well suited for use as a play room for the little ones. On the other side of the kitchen, a few steps lead down to the family room, where a vast set of floor to ceiling windows and bifold doors frame expansive views of the lush green grounds and garden lake while providing access to the rear garden terrace and circular walled patio - a perfect setup for garden parties and enjoying the summer weather. The oak floor in this room gives a nod to the cottage character, and the stylish fire set within a media wall adds to the modern design. Due to its great size and convenient position next to the kitchen, it's a versatile room with sufficient space for both a lounge area and an informal dining/breakfast area. In addition to the principal lounge and family room, there are two further reception rooms... The grand entrance hall is large enough to be another sitting area, with a log burner that's sure to give a warming glow on cold, wintery days. With an open aspect to the entrance hall, the dining room is another delightful space for dinner parties and entertaining, with more bifold doors that 'bring the outside in' and allow you to appreciate the landscaped grounds year-round. A notable aspect of the interior design in this part of the property is the glass floor that displays the wine cellar below. Bedrooms & Bathrooms - Ascending from the centre of the home between the kitchen and dining room is a bespoke walnut staircase with glass balustrades, handcrafted leather handrail, and a stunning crystal-effect tiled stone feature wall that rises high into the vaulted ceiling. The feature wall is illuminated by subtle uplights set within the floor that complement the 2.3m Italian-crystal chandelier hanging beautifully within the stairwell. From the gallery landing, the end of the corridor opens into the imposing master suite with another vaulted ceiling and designer chandelier that add to the grandeur. Within the bedroom, a set of bifold doors pour natural light into the room and lead to the balcony spanning the width of the property at the rear. A partition wall with designer wallpaper separates the super-king bed from a private dressing area, similar to that of boudoirs found in premium suites of the best hotels, fitted with high quality cabinetry, a dressing table and mirror with inset lighting. The opulence continues in the large walk-in wardrobe featuring elegant, mirrored wardrobes, drawers, an island and shelving. Above here is a fabulous mezzanine master bathroom which is fully tiled with white marble and comprises a four-piece suite, including a tiled-in steam shower with marble seating, bath with marble surrounds, WC, and vanity basin with storage. Each of the three further bedrooms have their own en-suites and are well-proportioned for family life, benefitting from being good sized doubles so the whole family can enjoy oodles of space. The professional interior design is evident in the en-suites too, with polished marble tiling to the floor and walls, and substantial walk-in showers with glass facades. The second bedroom also benefits from bifold doors opening onto the rear balcony, and the third bedroom features a walk-through dressing passage with bronze-tinted, mirrored fitted wardrobes. Outbuildings & Outside Space - An advantage of this already spectacular home is the versatile two-storey outbuilding, composed of the double garage with electric door which is accessed from the driveway, and below is a huge room that's currently configured as a fully equipped gym. The gym is incredibly private despite its wealth of floor to ceiling windows overlooking the natural garden lake, and glass doors open onto a lakeside terrace with swim spa and hot tub (available by separate negotiation). If not used as a gym, this versatile space could suit a variety of uses, subject to regulations. A games room with snooker table and bar? Self-contained annex accommodation for family? Or perhaps separated as an Airbnb for extra income? The choice is yours! Hidden behind this outbuilding is a large log store. As well as the waterfall flowing into the garden lake, a trickling brook flows down the side of the boundary, providing a calming countryside sound to be enjoyed while you're relaxing outside on warm summer days. Beyond the terrace and circular walled patio outside the family room, the grounds continue far beyond the water over a grassy area bordered by woodland, to a fenced children's play area at the bottom of the garden. It's fair to say this property has it all. Countryside Convenience - Situated on a country lane between several villages in south-west Lancashire, Brook House brings with it the opportunity to enjoy the peace and quiet of countryside living while being well connected for transport links, schools and amenities. Junction 27 of the M6 is accessible in only 5 to 10 minutes, making it an ideal location for those who regularly commute but prefer a more rural lifestyle, while adding to its overall accessibility for everyone. By rail, Buckshaw Parkway and Chorley stations are within a 15 to 20 minute drive, and the smaller but closer station of Parbold is just 10 minutes away, all of which give easy access to the nearby cities of Manchester, Preston, and Liverpool. You can also be in London within 3 hours of leaving the house! Owing to its location between several villages, there's a wide selection of amenities within a short drive too, including country pubs and restaurants, health clubs and spas, mini supermarkets, convenience stores, independent shops and farm shops, as well as a variety of good primary and secondary schools. Specifics & Services - The tax band is G. The tenure is freehold. The smart-home automation brand is Control4. The water and drainage are connected mains.

Located in the south Leicestershire village of South Kilworth, This Home is a property of distinctive style and design. Found at the top of a spacious private tarmac drive lined with tall graphite eco fencing, it is approached from Welford Road through black steel gates and along a driveway lined with lights and shrubs. It is an impressively individual building from the very first glance. Although it is only natural to try and imagine what this exceptional property has to offer, this is an original, and as such will undoubtedly deliver beyond expectations. This Stunning Home has been developed and personalised by the present owners over the last sixteen years. It is a residence that exudes modern characteristics and attributing features of architectural note. The main part of the building is in white render, accessorised with horizontal graphite windows, and a large chimney stack amidst a sweeping clerestory roof. It has been specifically extended and refurbished to add contemporary features, fixtures and fittings creating a split level house with an enormous one hundred metre squared bedroom extension connected to the main building through a glass link. In total, it has six bedrooms, a spacious open plan living area, gymnasium, triple garage and glass sided balcony, equipped with graphite pergolas below. By reconfiguring and adding to the existing structure, open space and versatility have been created in abundance within half an acre of grounds that overlook beautiful open farmland and countryside. This is an exclusively designed modern home. Welcoming The driveway is generously proportioned and easily provides parking for up to ten cars. There is a pond with waterfall feature at the front of the building and well maintained landscaped gardens consisting of lawn, trees and shrubbery. The triple garage is cedar clad and has been deliberately personalized to coordinate with the main house, featuring pent roof and four automated doors. Once inside, the hallway captures the essence of the interior design; it is light filled and spacious, with subtle lighting fixtures, minimal decoration and natural textures. The floor is covered with large white gloss porcelain tiles: they run throughout the hallway and into the large bedrooms found via a glass extension on the left. The tongue and groove doors in the property are made from medium oak wood, accessorised with brushed steel furniture, and coordinate with the staircase/steps that lead from the hall into the wonderful living space beyond. Contemporary design for relaxation and comfort Here, there is a combination of lounge, dining room and kitchen. There are areas demarcated for specific purposes with the use of furniture or fixtures but the generous proportion of the living space, plus the views that surround it into the garden and beyond, create an exceptionally light and relaxing room that is the geographical heart of the home. Travertine flooring is used throughout the living space and a bespoke feature wall of cedar cladding creates a perfect place to view a wide screen television for the lounge area. Directly above, there is one of two hidden entrances into the loft space, which has lighting, insulation and is boarded. A log burner has been positioned diagonally in the furthest corner of the living space – there is a covered cedar porch with log store close by - opposite to the open kitchen. The whole space is beautifully neutral and distinctively unique, with an easy relaxed vibe for everyday needs but with the capability for larger scale entertaining. The kitchen has three pairs of sliding anthracite doors. Two of them open onto the wide balcony. The covered balcony offers a fantastic extension to the living area and is decked with wood grain anthracite composite flooring. Here, purpose placed opaque glass affords privacy when using the hot tub, while the three metre by seven metre graphite pergolas can be opened or closed to suit. Within the bespoke kitchen, there is a sweep of worktop with space for double integrated appliances in cabinetry that is both practical and very fitting in this open plan arrangement of rooms. Stools fit neatly into one of the work surfaces and a steel extractor fan is ceiling hung from above the convection hob. The double ovens and dishwasher are included in the sale of the property. The dining area is at the side of the kitchen. Here there are two cabin windowed doors opening into a store on the left and a landing on the right. The landing leads to a staircase dropping to the rooms on the lowest level. The utility is below the kitchen – reached by going down the staircase – it is similarly fitted for storage, has an additional sink and provides plumbing for laundry appliances. There is also a pantry next door and the internal door to the snug. The snug is entered along a hall from the staircase and double doors opening onto the front of the property. The snug provides a wonderful addition to the home. Remember…there are six bedrooms From the original point of entry, instead of ascending the stairs to the living area, the bedrooms are on the opposite side on ground level. From the hall there are doors to two bedrooms at the front of the building and another at the rear. Presently, two of them are being used as separate studies. A family bathroom with separate toilet and basin are across the hall. Lastly, a fourth bedroom that has its own en-suite and doors that open into the garden. Another L shaped bedroom at the opposite end of the hall has a 4.5 metre window overlooking the front of the property. It is a spacious room and is fitted with mirrored wardrobes. The master suite of rooms making up the prime bedroom is at the furthest wing of the property. The extensive minimalist bedroom has windows on three sides and one with an electrically operated blind that stretches across the 4.5 metres of glass that looks into the garden and beyond. This prime suite has a bespoke dressing room with skylights, for him and her, and a designer minimalist en-suite by Lisa Melvin entitled ‘Rock Star’. This was featured in an edition of the Utopia kitchen and bathroom magazine and has a Hudson Reed wall-hung vanity unit with double basin, drawers and a three-panelled mirrored cabinet. There is a 3.6 ‘Dreamwall’ component behind the Waters Brook2 freestanding white bath and a supersize walk through rainfall shower, fitted with a Hansgrohe dance shower system and silver moon mosaic floor tiles. Graphite porcelain tiles are used elsewhere. The chrome finish radiator and towel warmer is made by Bisque and on skirting board level, the blue toned lighting reacts automatically with movement sensors. All fixtures and fittings in all the bathing areas of this Home have been tastefully selected for their contemporary design and fitted to high specifications. They all impress with the continuing theme of natural materials, a neutral palette and stunning attention to detail. Outside in the rear garden, a cedar clad summer house continues with the appearance of the house. There are landscaped gardens to enjoy and ever-changing, seasonal views looking out to open countryside. In all aspects tis impressive home undeniably fulfils the definition of exceptional: superior, superb and completely out of the ordinary,’ South Kilworth is a village in central England, a region referred to as the East Midlands. It is situated towards the southernmost extremity of Leicestershire being only a half hour drive from Leicester’s city centre. It is in the LE17 postcode district and is a civil parish. It falls within the district council of Harborough and is within easy reach of larger towns such as Lutterworth, Husbands Bosworth and Rugby, all providing a variety of amenities such as edge of town super stores or uniquely bespoke shops. Essentially, South Kilworth is geographically at the centre of an intersection of routes. The North Road takes you to North Kilworth and heading south on the Kilworth Road will lead to Welford. Heading south-west or north-west, will incur meeting the M1 at junctions 19 and 20, Rugby and Lutterworth respectively. From those points the M6 and M69 maximise the potential for speedier travel by road from this central Midland location. There are two railway stations within easy reach at Rugby and Market Harborough, with regular high speed trains to London Euston and St. Pancras taking a little over one hour. The nearest airports are East Midlands, Birmingham and Coventry. In times past, the Domesday Book of 1086 records a settlement known then as Cleveliord which many believe is referring to South Kilworth as it could mean hedged enclosure. There have been settlements in the vicinity since prehistoric times with later evidence pertaining to Roman, Anglo Saxon and mediaeval periods. The village was certainly established before the Norman Conquest, with a manor and farming community. There remains evidence of forridge and furrow cultivation in fields bordering the village. The church of St Nicholas is twelfth century in part but holds a clock tower installed as a memorial to the men of the locality who died fighting in the 1914-18 war. There are a number of historic houses in the village along the Welford and Walcote Roads dating from the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Today, the village hall located on Leys Crescent is the centre for many social activities, events and clubs. It has extensive sports pitches, a children’s playground, adult fitness equipment and a bowling green. As with many communities, people are interested to share points of communal interest and the South Kilworth monthly newsletter will be a good starting point for those new to the area. An excellent village website produced by the parish council also contains a wealth of information. www.southkilworth.co.uk There are several public houses and restaurants in or close by to South Kilworth: The White Hart, The Attic, White Lion or Black Horse to name a few. These serve locally produced food and ales. There is easy access to wider open spaces, with nature reserves and bridal paths within easy reach. Kilworth Springs Golf Club, Kilworth House Hotel and the Outdoor Theatre attract people to the vicinity, as does the North Kilworth Marina. Golf courses and equestrian centres are easily reached by car. There is a local primary school, South Kilworth Primary School but over a wider area there are several educational options; nursery, primary and secondary. South Kilworth is in the catchment area for the Rugby (Warwickshire) Grammar Schools. Other schools include the Rugby School, Leicester Grammar, Princethorpe and Oakham. There are also private establishments in the county offering bordering facilities. The Office for Standards in Education - OFSTED – is best researched to provide a comprehensive review of currently rated standards of practice.

Wild Winds represents a rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional private lifestyle estate in one of North Devon’s most desirable coastal countryside settings. Extending to approximately 6,500 sq ft, this impressive six/seven-bedroom contemporary barn conversion combines outstanding scale, privacy and entertaining space with proven income potential, all within easy reach of the region’s renowned beaches. Currently operating as an established luxury holiday letting business, with trading figures available on request, Wild Winds offers considerably more than a substantial private residence. It presents a compelling lifestyle and investment opportunity, appealing equally to those seeking a landmark family home, a coastal retreat with income or a distinctive property from which to build a successful hospitality business. The property is set within beautifully landscaped gardens and grounds extending to approximately three acres, enjoying sweeping views across the surrounding countryside towards the sea beyond. The grounds provide excellent privacy, generous space for outdoor entertaining and the potential for equestrian use, creating a wonderfully secluded setting in which to relax, entertain and enjoy the North Devon lifestyle. Arranged over two floors, the accommodation has been thoughtfully designed for contemporary luxury living. At the heart of the home is a spectacular open-plan living, kitchen and dining space, creating an impressive yet welcoming environment for family life, entertaining and holiday guests. Expansive proportions, high-quality finishes and carefully considered design combine to create a home of genuine presence and distinction. The first floor features a superb principal suite with its own private terrace, providing an idyllic retreat from which to enjoy the surrounding landscape and coastal views. The remaining bedrooms are equally well appointed, with five ensuite facilities supporting both comfortable family living and the property’s successful operation as a luxury holiday let. Further accommodation includes a dedicated playroom and a flexible media and playroom with a wall-mounted television, offering excellent potential to create a dedicated home cinema. These versatile spaces reinforce Wild Winds’ appeal as a property designed for relaxation, entertainment and memorable stays, while allowing future owners to adapt the accommodation to suit their own requirements. An Exceptional Additional Opportunity Available by separate negotiation is a neighbouring barn benefiting from planning permission for a further substantial contemporary conversion of approximately 7,500 sq ft, subject to confirmation from the approved plans. The consent is understood to have been secured under previous Class Q regulations and represents an increasingly rare and valuable planning asset, with comparable permissions likely to be considerably more difficult to obtain under current regulations. Importantly, the neighbouring barn is not included within the principal sale of Wild Winds and its approximately three acres. Instead, it provides an additional opportunity for a purchaser wishing to create the ultimate private estate, develop a second substantial residence, establish further guest accommodation or explore a wider commercial proposition, subject to the relevant consents and individual requirements. Additional adjoining land may also be available by separate negotiation, further enhancing the flexibility and long-term potential of the wider estate. Wild Winds is therefore not simply a large coastal home. It is a highly unusual and versatile proposition: a private country estate, a luxury entertaining house, a proven holiday letting business and, for those wishing to expand, an opportunity to acquire a neighbouring development project of exceptional scale and rarity. Opportunities offering this combination of lifestyle, income, privacy and future potential are seldom available in the North Devon market.
