7 Bedroom Barn Conversion For Sale In Whitwell

Set within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and surrounded by rolling countryside, this exceptional rural home offers a rare combination of historic charm, generous proportions and modern comfort. Lot 1 comprises an impressive Grade II listed barn conversion together with a self‑contained holiday let, creating a wonderfully versatile country retreat with income potential. Converted from handsome stone barns in the late 2000s, the main residence extends to approximately 4,450 square feet and retains a wealth of original character, including exposed beams, vaulted ceilings and beautifully preserved stonework.

A striking entrance hall sets the tone, with a partly vaulted ceiling, timber staircase and large glazed openings that frame views of the gardens to both front and rear. The ground floor offers a series of inviting reception spaces, including a well‑proportioned sitting room with a feature stone wall and wood‑burning stove, a dining room with country views, and a spacious kitchen/breakfast room fitted with oak cabinetry, granite worktops and a range of appliances. French doors open directly to the garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. Additional ground floor rooms include an office with garden access, a spa‑style shower room and three double bedrooms, each with its own en suite and direct access to the gardens.

The first floor continues the sense of scale and character, with a galleried landing leading to two further double bedrooms, both featuring exposed beams, vaulted ceilings and en suite facilities. Throughout, the craftsmanship and attention to detail create a warm, inviting atmosphere that blends heritage with contemporary comfort.

Outside, the property is approached via a gated gravel driveway leading to extensive parking, a large car port and a separate double garage/workshop. Lawned gardens wrap around the home, enclosed by stone walling and punctuated by terraces that capture far reaching downland views. A stone outbuilding houses a plant room with a newly installed boiler and rainwater harvesting system, supporting the home’s practical and efficient design.

Adjoining the main residence, the holiday let forms part of Lot 1 and offers excellent income potential or flexible accommodation for guests. With its own entrance, parking and enclosed garden, it includes a vaulted kitchen/living room with exposed beams, two double bedrooms and a well‑appointed shower room. French doors open to a private lawn and gravel terrace, creating a peaceful, self‑contained retreat.

Lot 2 offers an exciting additional opportunity, comprising approximately 3.39 acres of land together with a substantial agricultural barn – available by separate negotiation. The barn features power, lighting, roller shutter doors and a concrete floor, making it ideal for storage or future adaptation (subject to permissions). The surrounding meadow, young woodland and small orchard of pear and apple trees create a beautiful natural setting with open views and abundant wildlife.

Just a few miles from the Island’s southern coastline, the property enjoys easy access to village amenities, scenic beaches, coastal paths and a wealth of outdoor pursuits, making both lots an exceptional offering in a truly idyllic location.
