THE OLD COW SHED

What a magnificent home and glorious setting, you simply will not want to leave the grounds and home of The Old Cow Shed.

This hidden gem is wonderfully placed, meeting the needs of a convenient location close to the beach and town as well as being secretly hidden away from the world.

The Old Cow Shed is an exquisite new build, it is no wonder that this build was given the accolade it deserved by winning the city’s Building Excellence Award in 2010. Much thought and love has been put into the home, from the Welsh Oak Company supplying the oak frame to the locally sourced Blue Pennant Stone and Larch cladding.

With all of this to offer, you will undoubtedly be impressed.

After your journey down a meandering lane, you are welcomed through colossal wooden gates and into a large gravelled courtyard style driveway. The entrance to the home is central to the courtyard and delights of Oak floors, Oak hand crafted doors and underfloor heating runs throughout the home.

The entrance hallway is generous and light highlights the rustic character that you will find in abundance throughout the house. We lead straight into the extraordinary open plan area of the ground floor which encompasses a living area with gargantuan glass wall flooding in the natural light, dining area which has double patio doors leading out to one of the many patio areas, kitchen and sitting room which again has double patio doors leading to the patio area and garden at the rear of the house. Due to the open plan design you will experience lots of light and gorgeous views from wherever you are situated. There is a very beautiful yet functional divide, situated between the living area and dining room, which houses a wood burner and feature mantle. The fireplace is designed so that you can enjoy it from both the living area and dining room.

The kitchen has an abundance of hand crafted country style shaker units by Neptune in a lovely Farrow and Ball Oxford Stone, which is complimented by the granite worktops, wooden beams and white porcelain double Belfast sink. A substantial AGA sits proudly in the heart of the kitchen and creates a warm, homely focal point. The outlook over the garden is just wonderful, open out the doors and create a perfect social space. There is also a very handy, substantial utility room which houses a large amount of fitted units, sink and room for multiple appliances. The utility room also has a wet room with shower, and stable door leading to the rear garden.

At the far end of The Old Cow Shed, is a cloakroom and an additional lounge, perfect if you feel the need for privacy away from the rest of the ground floor open plan space.

We can now ascend to the first floor via the ultra modern yet rustic wooden staircase with glass balustrade which runs across the entire length of the gallery landing, creating a naturally bright space. The first room we have to discover is the master bedroom, there is wow factor feature windows here which give the most amazing panoramas over the garden. The master bedroom also houses a modern en-suite shower room. There is also a walk in wardrobe and further room which could be used as a dressing/make up area (currently used as a gym).

A further very generous double en-suite bedroom, is next along and then two further double bedrooms. The first floor also encompasses a family bathroom and study. A cute and cosy snug corner is hidden away on the galleried landing, adding yet another little corner to hide away in.

Now let’s explore the grounds of The Old Cow Shed. The entire home is surrounded with gardens and a number of different patio area’s. However, the piece de resistance is the covered patio, which is the perfect outdoor entertainment spot!

Amongst the grounds is also a raised patio area with built in open fireplace – perfect to take the chill off and toast a few marshmallows. There is also a pond and a wooden studio which has electricity, WIFI and insulated.
