This “imaginatively converted” former barn for sale is surrounded by rolling countryside and is full of historic character. 

Cwm Cae Barn, in Maypole near Monmouth, has “superb” rural views and blends period features with modern amenities. 

Character features of the property include oak beams, roof trusses, and original arrow slit windows. 

Entering the home, floor-to-ceiling panels sit in place of the original barn doors, leading into a part-vaulted hallway and dining area with wooden floorboards and exposed wall timbers. 

The hall stretches back to a sun terrace with countryside views, and a living room with a wood-burning stove on a raised stone hearth. 

Beyond this is a beamed drawing room with arrow slit windows and a fireplace, plus a recently installed kitchen with integrated appliances. 

A large study sits to the side of the hall, and across from this is a bedroom wing, with two double bedrooms and a modern bathroom. 

A bespoke oak staircase leads to the first floor galleried landing, which provides access to the principal bedroom suite, featuring a vaulted ceiling, exposed timbers, an adjacent dressing room and an en-suite shower room. 

Stairs lead up to a further bedroom, with exposed roof trusses, roof lights and an en-suite shower room. 

Outside, there are south-facing gardens which include a vegetable patch, a two-tiered flagged terrace and an orchard. 

Also in the grounds are a double garage, a greenhouse, a garden shed and a tractor shed, plus a courtyard with parking. 

The property is being sold by Fine & Country for a guide price of £1,100,000. 

The agent commented: “This imaginatively converted former barn oozes historic character yet has a contemporary, light and airy feel which makes it practical for modern living. 

“It boasts a highly desirable location approximately four miles north-west of Monmouth in the hamlet of Maypole, where it is surrounded by beautiful, rolling countryside.”
