A contemporary barn with eco credentials in Westerfield is up for sale at a guide price of £1.35million.
Threshing Barn was custom-built for the present owners by local architect Peter Wells in 2018.
Due to the property’s high levels of insulation, as well as a ground source heat pump, the property has secured a strong B grade energy rating.
The property, which has cedar clad elevations under a zinc roof, benefits from underfloor heating throughout.

On the ground floor, there’s a stunning part-vaulted living and dining room with a six-metre floor-to-ceiling window as well as bi-fold doors that open onto the west-facing terrace and garden. This light room features reclaimed oak herringbone flooring, and is open plan to the kitchen, with siltstone surfaces, Rangemaster cooker and fitted cabinets.
The herringbone flooring runs through to the sitting room, which also has bi-fold doors.
Beyond the kitchen there’s a rear hall where you can access a walk-in pantry, a study/games room and a boot room.

A wide stair tower, with custom placed ‘letterbox’ windows and open-tread staircase, rises to a vaulted galleried landing, leading to five west-facing bedrooms. The master includes a dressing room and en suite bathroom. There is a shared shower room along with a second en suite shower room and a first floor laundry room, as well as a roof room above three of the bedrooms.
Outside, through electronically controlled gates, there’s a shingled parking and turning area to the front of the property, with access to a cart lodge and double length garage. Pathways around the house lead to a west-facing terrace, which is ideal for alfresco dining, a plant room and a separate utility store barn.

The gardens are to the west of the property, which will abutt a new 72-acre country park. The gardens feature wide lawns with wild flower borders, while a shale path leads to a series of circular terraces where there are views towards the barn, as well as across the country park and fields beyond.
There is also a potting shed, chicken run and kitchen garden. In all, the plot extends to about two thirds of an acre.
