Little Hormead, Buntingford, Hertfordshire

Little Hormead is a small village of mainly period houses with a pretty Saxon church, a short drive from the A10 and the larger villages of Standon and Braughing. Surrounding the village there is gently undulating countryside of fields and woodland.
Pattens Barn is one of three barns which were converted about twenty years ago and are believed to date back to the 20th century. A certain amount of the timber frame of the building can be seen from the inside of the property. Externally, the building has traditional dark weatherboarding under a pitched and slate roof.
The accommodation has been recently refurbished, the majority of the windows have been replaced with a particularly impressive full height window. There is a galleried hall which has a wooden staircase to the first floor. There is a generously proportioned drawing room, again with oak flooring, a brick fireplace and a multi fuel stove. The kitchen, which has recently been re-fitted by a well-regarded local company Van de Peer, has a generous range of storage cupboards, wooden work surfaces and integrated appliances and a walk-in pantry. In addition, there is a utility room, a study and ground floor cloakroom.
On the first floor there is a particularly impressive galleried landing with oak flooring. The main bedroom lies to the front and has lovely views over open countryside and a modern en suite. There are three further bedrooms, one en suite and a Jack and Jill bathroom.
OUTSIDE, The barn is approached along a private driveway through a pair of gates to a parking and turning area and open bay double cart lodge, with boarded storage space above. At the entrance to the driveway there is a storage building shared with one other barn. To the side of the garage there is a detached building which would provide an excellent annexe with one or two bedrooms, currently being used as an office and gym. We understand that there is historical planning consent to connect the annexe to the main house. Outside, there is a generous terrace, lawns and shrub borders with outside water and lighting.
