The very best use has been made of the south-facing position of this converted barn, particularly with the addition, in 2007, of a stunning garden room.

Made with a hardwood frame and double glazed roof, the garden room also has the luxury of under-floor heating. Two pairs of double glazed French doors lead to a paved terrace and frame the view of the garden and fields beyond, while an internal set of French doors connects to the kitchen, so there's a real sense of bringing the outside in.

As well as the lovely garden at Rose Cottage, which is one of three dwellings in a period barn conversion, there is a gravelled driveway which leads to a parking area and detached garage, plus a paddock and a small copse totalling 1.25 acres.

The interior is the epitome of "country cottage", with the pale walls set against exposed stone walls and ceiling beams, some oak flooring and an impressive stone fireplace in the living room, from where French doors open to the terrace. Elsewhere on the ground floor is a hallway, cloakroom/wc and a combined kitchen and dining room.

Cream kitchen units are fitted under contrasting granite work surfaces, while integrated appliances include a dishwasher, fridge, freezer, washing machine and gas range cooker.

Above are three bedrooms, the master with built-in wardrobes and an en suite bathroom, and another with wardrobes and a dressing table/desk. There is also a shower room.

The terrace and garden is to the front of the cottage, with a lawn, well stocked borders, a magnolia tree, beech hedge and a rockery centrepiece with water feature. A pathway edged with lavender leads to the parking area.
