Occasionally properties come along to offer a genuine opportunity for a change of life - Sutton Newbold, at Old Wingate Farm, is a home that offers just that.
A stunning barn conversion in its own right, it also comes with a cottage that's an ideal holiday let or Airbnb, or a chance to keep an elderly relative close but still independent.
It has land approximately two acres including a fenced paddock - and multiple outbuildings, so it could finally be the place to have a horse or pony, or to raise poultry and be more self-sufficient. Equally, the storage lends itself to a hobby that requires covered space.
At the centre of the property is the beautifully renovated four-bedroom home that has been a labour of love for the vendors who masterminded its transformation with determination to retain as much of the character of the former barn as possible.
The conversion began in 2009 and took a total of ten years as they set out to preserve as many original features as possible or replace on a like for like basis.
'Sutton' is a Anglo Saxon word for 'south facing farmhouse' and 'newbold' signified new build which, in this case relates to a kitchen extension, hence the south facing farmhouse with new build.
The period is evidenced immediately by several original beams on the ground floor which were reported by a historic buildings consultant as being late medieval. Look up, and the architectural features reach new heights. Stunning main roof trusses have been replaced with green oak to replicate a truncated principal truss design which was a regionally distinctive roof form in this type of building in County Durham in the later-medieval period and can be seen in buildings owned by Durham Cathedral Priory.
Retaining some of the space as double height combines to provide a stunning feature that gives the rustic building real contemporary appeal with an oak and iron galleried landing from which to take it all in.
