WHILE property trends may come and go, barn conversions – and the country-meets-modern lifestyle they imply – continue to remain popular.

Looking at Endican Barn, a skilful conversion from an original farm barn, it's no surprise, as not only is it a charming family home, but one that enjoys superb rural views and a first-class location on the edge of a popular village.

The ground floor accommodation comprises a reception hall; cloakroom; study/ home office; lounge with vaulted ceilings and a wood-burning stove; a beautifully-presented sitting room with beamed ceilings, an open fire set in a bespoke stone fireplace and hearth, and floor-to-ceiling windows to two aspects; a kitchen/dining room and a large utility room that is also utilised as a secondary kitchen. The hub of this family home, the kitchen/dining room features a bespoke Treske kitchen with centre island, vaulted beamed ceilings and walls that are a mix of hand-made brick and cobble retained from the original barn.

Upstairs, off the galleried landing, are the family bathroom and five double bedrooms, including the master bedroom with floor-to-ceiling double glazed windows, a dressing area with bespoke cherry wood wardrobes and a refitted en-suite shower room.

Endican Barn has large, well-maintained gardens – laid mainly to lawn – with a large stone patio seating area. The rear garden backs onto open grazing land, giving the property both a pleasant outlook and increased privacy. The property also benefits from a large integral double garage.

Endican Barn – which is situated in the village of Thornton-le-Moor – is on the market at a guide price of £549,950. For more information or to arrange a viewing, please contact Stanton Mortimer on 01609 773004.
