GENERAL
Calf Barn is an exquisite, stunning barn conversion in a fabulous setting on the edge of Nailstone. The conversion was carried out with great sensitivity with every effort being made to preserve the essential character of this wonderful building, whilst at the same time creating contemporary and stylish living spaces. Calf Barn features reclaimed roofing, exposed timbers and brickwork combined with modern natural limestone and timber flooring. The latest technology ensures Calf Barn will be cost effective to run. The low energy air source heating system warms the under-floors throughout the barn, whilst the individual room thermostats give the user considerable control over their environment.

A private drive leads to a parking area opening onto which is a detached double garage. There is a beautifully landscaped South facing walled garden and on the other side of the property, adjoining the drive, the owners have created a pretty wild flower meadow.

Please note that 5 years still remain on the building warranty.
