General Information

The Property

We are thrilled to offer this rare opportunity to acquire this beautifully renovated, remodelled, and extended stone-built barn. This property, which has never been on the market since its conversion in the late 1990s, was originally part of Chevin Farm. The farmhouse and outbuilding were renovated under the direction of the current owners of The Old Stables.

Nestled in approximately 2.3 acres, this stunning stone barn conversion is in a peaceful semi-rural location. It boasts impressive period features, including a beautiful stone fireplace, charming exposed brickwork, and trusses. Contemporary designs and fittings enhance the warmth and appeal of this lovely home.

An impressive driveway leads down to the barn, offering sweeping views of the surrounding paddocks and woodland. Several parking areas are available. The barn is situated within its own attractive courtyard, which includes a large garage and a range of stables and outbuilding, all overlooking the paddocks and distant views of the surrounding area.

The welcoming entrance hall features a tiled floor and an exposed stone wall, providing ample space to sit and remove coats and boots on cooler days.

An oak door leads into the sitting room, boasting a stunning stone fireplace set within exposed brickwork, accompanied by a log burner that adds warmth. The sitting room is designed on two levels, ideal for entertaining, while also allowing for a quieter conversation area when needed.

Double doors open into the fabulous living, dining kitchen, complete with underfloor heating. This contemporary space showcases Karndean flooring and a beautifully crafted kitchen that includes a good range of cupboards and drawers and an island unit with a breakfast bar for informal dining, all enhanced by granite worktops and mood lighting. A range cooker is set within an ornamental fire surround, accompanied by a full range of built-in appliances. There is ample room for an informal dining table and chairs, and a seating area around a contemporary-style log burner, all overlooking the kitchen courtyard terrace, which is accessible through Crittall doors featuring full-height glass windows.

Steps lead down to the formal dining room, where Karndean flooring continues into this intimate entertaining space. Windows look out over the side elevation, painted exposed timbers to the ceiling, and useful storage cupboards. A door leads to the utility room, and another door opens into the lower sitting area.

Adjacent to the lower sitting area is an additional reception room, currently used by the owners as a music room and study, but which could ideally become a playroom or additional snug.

A practical utility room houses the domestic hot water and central heating boiler and is fitted with a range of base cupboards and offers space for a washing machine and dryer. A door provides outside access, and another opens into the guest cloakroom.

Stairs ascend to the first-floor split landing, where the principal bedroom is situated privately, separate from the other rooms on this floor. This bedroom serves as a lovely, quiet retreat, featuring built-in wardrobes and attractive wood-effect flooring. It also includes a superbly presented modern en suite shower room with underfloor heating.

The guest bedroom is another lovely room with a built-in wardrobe. From here, steps rise to a generously sized landing area, providing access to the main shower room. This charming shower room features a period-style built-in vanity unit with a marble top and inset hand basin, along with a built-in w.c. and a shower cubicle equipped with a large rainfall showerhead.

Completing the accommodation on this floor is a unique teenage suite, which includes a seating or dressing area, with ladder steps leading up to the bedroom area that features a built-in wardrobe and Velux windows.

Grounds And Gardens

The outside space is a wonderful feature of this property. The garden, terraces, and paddocks are superbly manicured, with beautifully shaped trees and neat borders. The two entertaining terraces are lovely spaces for intimate gatherings or for quiet afternoons enjoying the location, peace, and sun. A contemporary pod creates an ideal painting or reading spot on warmer days. Sitting and looking out is a joy, enjoying your land and the surrounding area.

The three stables, workshop and garage offer opportunities to be used as a new owner wishes.

Location

Chevin Road is a sought-after location on the outskirts of Milford and Belper. This lovely semi-rural area offers peace and quiet, yet within a short drive, there are shops, restaurants, and public inns. How perfect.
