Transforma­tion of an aisled barn to des res

- Sally Burton sally.burton@jpimedia.co.uk @HxCourier

WITH fantastic views across Shibden Valley, this conversion from a seventeent­h century stone barn is now a luxurious home with a good swathe of grazing land, stables and a selfcontai­ned studio among its attributes.

Grade ll Listed, its original timber frame is responsibl­e for the building’s new name, The Aisled Barn.

Once part of Scout Hall Farm, close to the stately home of Scout Hall, this character home now has an impressive glass front door in to its airy, open plan living space with a polished concrete floor.

The original aisled timber frame is fully visible, set upon stone batts.

With insulated walls and ceiling, bespoke wooden double glazed windows and a wet underfloor heating system to the ground floor, warmth and comfort are assured along with the rustic visual charm of timber and stone.

A log burning stove nestles within a fireplace on a slightly raised seating area, while a cantilever­ed wooden staircase with glazed balustrade leads up to the accommodat­ion that lies above.

The open plan kitchen has fitted units with solid wooden work surfaces, an induction hob with extractor, a double oven with microwave, a fridge freezer, and an island unit.

A spacious principal bedroom, also on this floor, has stunning picture windows with views across the valley to front and rear, and its own large and luxurious, ensuite bathroom.

Above are two further double bedrooms, a bathroom and a separate WC.

With mains electricit­y, the property has LPG gas and is connected to a spring water supply shared with four other properties.

Gardens include a rear landscaped area with ornamental pond, and an additional lawned garden accessed by steps.

Another steel framed building across the courtyard has facilities that include stables, a studio space with a kitchenett­e, a shower and outside toilet, that could be perfect as a home office or workspace arrangemen­t. It also houses the central heating boiler and water purificati­on system.

A further detached workshop lies beyond this.

There are 12-plus acres of grazing land with the property, that would be ideal for anyone with equestrian interests.

The Aisled Barn, Lee Lane, Shibden, Halifax, is for sale with Wm Sykes & Son, priced £799,950.
