THE PROPERTY Originally built around 150–200 years ago, Swallow Barn formed part of the original farm before being converted into a comfortable family home during the 1980s. The property is well presented throughout and offers generously proportioned accommodation, with all three bedrooms large enough to accommodate double or king-size beds. The heart of the home is the spacious kitchen/dining room, which flows naturally into a welcoming sitting room. From here, there are attractive views across College Reservoir, adding to the property's tranquil atmosphere. The property enjoys three distinct outdoor spaces: Courtyard Garden: A Mediterranean-style, enclosed courtyard accessed from the sitting room, offering a sheltered seating area with views towards the reservoir. Front Garden: Located at the entrance to the property, featuring a lawn, seating area, and off-road parking. Main Garden: Situated across the quiet no-through lane, this substantial and mature garden includes a timber chalet currently used as additional accommodation, along with a decked seating area enjoying attractive water views. To the rear is a double garage with useful loft storage, providing excellent space for vehicles, storage, or workshop use.
