The Detail
Smithy Farm Barn, nestled within the sought-after Hamlet of Twyford, Barrow-on-Trent, is a most stylish barn conversion that effortlessly blends character features with stylish modern living, offering a well-considered single-storey layout and a superb sense of space throughout.
The property is entered via a timber panelled door with an obscure glazed inset, leading into a welcoming entrance area and hallway finished with ceramic tiled flooring. A thoughtfully designed cloaks area with built-in coat hooks adds practicality, while panel-effect walls and timber latched doors enhance the barn’s charm. From here, doors lead to two well-proportioned bedrooms, the main bathroom, and open access into the stunning open-plan living kitchen.
The heart of the home is the impressive open-plan living kitchen, featuring a striking vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and trusses, alongside Velux and rear-facing windows that flood the space with natural light. The kitchen itself is beautifully appointed with heritage green painted panelled units, brushed stainless steel handles, quartz work surfaces, and a Belfast sink with a traditional swan-neck mixer tap. A Smeg dual-fuel range cooker sits within a feature chimney breast with tiled splashbacks, while a central island provides an ideal space for dining and entertaining. The living area continues seamlessly, retaining the ceramic tiled flooring, and is enhanced by an exposed brick feature wall, rear window, and access through a glazed door into a delightful snug. The snug offers a cosy retreat with oak-effect flooring, a tall feature window, and French doors leading to the rear garden.
An inner hallway off the kitchen leads to the primary bedroom, which enjoys a semi-vaulted ceiling with exposed beams and tranquil garden views. The en-suite shower room is stylishly finished with a stylish white suite, including a mains-fed shower set against a feature brick-tiled wall, and a distinctive ceramic sink mounted on a singer-style stand with mosaic tiled splashbacks and matt black fittings.
Externally, the property continues to impress, benefiting from an attached integral garage with power, lighting, and a Worcester central heating boiler, along with parking directly to the front and additional spaces within a rear courtyard. The landscaped rear garden offers a private and peaceful setting, with a paved patio, steps leading to a lawned garden, gravel pathways, and seating areas bordered by shrubs and hedgerows. The garden wraps around the side of the property and includes a metal-framed shed, with gated access leading to a shared pathway and open fields beyond, creating a truly idyllic countryside outlook.
