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.
