An outstanding bespoke home, this exceptional property beautifully blends the charm and character of a traditional barn with the light-filled elegance of contemporary design. Set within landscaped gardens and enjoying far-reaching views from its idyllic rural village setting, the home is constructed in classic Cotswold stone, complemented by striking exposed oak timbers.
