Price History
South Barn is a property steeped in local history, built in the 1600s with evidence of previous use as a pirate hideaway. In 1926, architect Percy Morley Horder was commissioned to transform the barn into a home, preserving the natural fall of the land and original structure. The property retains many original features, including Purbeck stone walls, flooring, and high beams. The interior consists of a hallway, sitting room, dining area, kitchen and breakfast room, drawing room, utility area, and separate pantry and WC. The sitting room flows into the dining area and drawing room, with the kitchen and breakfast room leading to a charming walled garden with Aga cooker. The property has four double bedrooms, including a principal suite with ensuite bathroom, dressing room, and super king-sized bed. Two further double bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the first floor accommodation. Additional features include a separate utility area, high ceilings in the utility room, and a one-bedroom cottage with kitchen, lounge area, and bathroom, currently operated as a successful holiday let. The grounds stretch across nearly an acre, featuring a fig tree, ancient alder tree, rare wild orchids, and a dinosaur footprint stone, with a separate detached cottage.
