I spent three hours awake last night, I do suffer from insomnia. So I started sorting this house out. I made the room off of my bedroom into a large en-suite to one side of the window and a dressing room to the other side with *my* sewing machine under the window. The first room you came into was my huge kitchen, with solid fuel Aga in the hearth to run some hot water and heating too. That back room off of the kitchen became a granny annex with shower room, bedroom and cosy sitting room. The small room in front of the top of the stairs became the family bathroom and I converted the barn into a lovely 3 bedroom holiday let. I had so much fun. I’ve had to come back again today to remind myself of some of the proportions so I can continue tonight. 🙂

Good price. But you would need to put a lot of money into it. I would tear the walls out to run new water lines and electric. Then I would put in a bathroom downstairs and that small bedroom upstairs I would turn into a bathroom. Then the big bedroom with the extra room attached. I would make that extra room into a private bathroom and large closet, maybe a sitting area. Then, the two attic rooms I would repair and make them bedrooms and if there was room put a 4th bathroom up there. There doesn't seem to be much room on the ground floor, just the two rooms and the work room you walked in through. And that back section I would turn into a large kitchen and a large dining room. It looks like there was an upstairs in those room too, but the floors were taken out. You could rebuild an upstairs there for more storage. I think I would do that over the kitchen area, and then leave it open in the dining room with a big hanging chandelier. The house has a lot of potential. That first big outbuilding I would convert the upstairs into a apartment, with two bedrooms, living room, two bathrooms, kitchen and dining space. The bottom could be fixed as a garage or better yet and work area. Say you hand dyed yarn, you could set it up with sinks and electric burners for pots, even have a shop to sell your products out of. Then you wouldn't have to pay rent anywhere. There is a lot of potential here for a home or home and business. Thank you for showing us.
