All is contemporary and light inside this converted farm building, but it has an impressively long history.
Grade II listed Swallows Barn in Alvechurch, Worcestershire, dates back to around 1829 and once served the neighbouring Hall Farm.
The house is approached through electronically operated timber gates onto a sculpted driveway leading up to a parking zone and detached double garage.
At the front is a large hall with opening into the generous L-shaped sitting room with beamed stair access and door to the garden.
A door from the hall leads to a sizable shower room. Next to this is a guest bedroom with storage.
A two-part family room features double doors to both the front and back gardens.
There is a most attractive fitted kitchen which has ample space for dining.
From here an inner hall leads to a cloakroom with toilet and utility. Next to this is a near-24 ft long day room with skylight windows.
