Situation

Compton Green is a small rural hamlet located between Redmarley and Newent, on the borders of the Three Counties in west Gloucestershire. This popular area benefits from beautiful rural countryside, renowned for its displays of wild daffodils. The property occupies a quiet position with fabulous views over open countryside towards May Hill and offers a much sought after rural quality of life, complemented by excellent road and rail links to the larger cities and towns of Gloucester, Cheltenham, and Birmingham.

Compton Barn

Compton Barn is a very well presented and maintained barn conversion. The living spaces are enhanced by exposed beams and trusses which, combined with a modern finish, give this property character and warmth whilst providing spacious accommodation throughout.
A welcoming entrance leads into the main dining hall with wood-burning stove, a wonderful space for family get-togethers and entertaining. This room has direct access to the garden and patio via French doors.
Leading off the dining hall is the kitchen/breakfast room, which is the heart of this lovely home. The kitchen was replaced in 2016 and features attractive, fitted oak cupboards, with plenty of storage and benefitting from an integrated full-size fridge, dishwasher, and microwave. The kitchen is complemented by granite work-surfaces and an Everhot range takes pride of place.
A spacious, yet comfortable sitting room with vaulted ceiling enjoys direct access to the patio terrace and west facing garden via double French doors, inset into a fully glazed elevation, flooding this super room with natural light.

There is a snug/second sitting room, which also has access to the patio and garden, which is a lovely, light filled room. This provides a very flexible space and could be used as a children's TV/playroom, or similar.
A good-sized utility/boot room leads directly to the garden and provides additional cupboard storage with space for appliances, as well as plenty of room for coats, boots, and dogs.
There is also a home office with built-in storage cupboard, and a downstairs family bathroom, which also has a good storage cupboard and access to a boarded loft space.
One of the four bedrooms is situated on the ground floor and has en-suite facilities and fitted storage/wardrobe space. This makes a great room for guests or dependent family members.
Stairs from the dining hall lead to the first floor landing off which there are three double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The main bedroom is generously proportioned and has a vaulted ceiling, en-suite bathroom, and built-in wardrobe.
The additional bedrooms also benefit from built-in storage and there is a large storage cupboard situated off the landing.

The Outside

The property is approached via a sweeping, gravelled driveway, flanked by lawned gardens with mature trees, including willow and flowering cherry, and attractive spring flowers. Mature hedging provides privacy and screening.
The rear garden is south-west facing, and a large patio terrace provides the perfect space for seasonal dining and is complemented by raised lavender beds, smart gravelled pathways lead through the formal lawns with access to the stable block and pasture paddocks.
A substantial, brick built double garage adjoins the stable block and there is ample parking at the front of the property for several vehicles and horse box or lorry.
The brick built triple stable block is attached behind the garage with adjoining feed store/tack room. There is a good concrete hardstanding with securely fenced perimeter and direct access to the pasture paddocks, which are ring fenced with part post & rail fencing. There is a mains water supply to the paddocks.
Compton Barn is secluded and situated in a lovely rural location and enjoys views over the surrounding countryside towards May Hill.
