Barnsfold Cottage is a beautifully presented period home dating back to the 1500s, offering a rare blend of historical charm and modern family living. Set in a peaceful rural location with stunning countryside views, it’s the ideal setting for families looking to slow down and spread out.

The ground floor offers flexible living space designed with family life in mind — a light-filled dining room with a large inglenook fireplace, a sunny kitchen/breakfast room that opens into a cosy snug, and a spacious sitting room with French doors leading to the garden. There’s also a separate study, perfect for remote working or quiet time.

Upstairs, the home is cleverly arranged with four bedrooms accessed from two stairways, offering privacy and flexibility. Two bedrooms feature en suites, and there’s a family bathroom as well — ideal for morning routines or hosting guests.

Original beams, timber details, and fireplaces add warmth and character throughout, while the layout and updates make it functional for modern family life.

Outside, the 2.5 acres of grounds include everything young families dream of: a swimming pool and pool house, a large garden for play and adventure, an apple orchard, productive veggie beds, and even a paddock. A separate outbuilding with an air conditioned office and en suite studio above offers excellent space for working from home, guests, or a teen retreat.

Set on a quiet bridleway with no through traffic, surrounded by open farmland, Barnsfold Cottage is a peaceful retreat where kids can roam free and parents can truly unwind — all just a short drive from excellent local amenities.
