Monks Barn – for sale freeholdA delightful detached former barn and former coach house dating back to the 1800s located in an idyllic and secluded setting above a wooded valley that runs down to the sea on the unspoilt Rame Peninsula. Monks Barn is believed to date back as far as the 1800s and originally served its neighbouring manor house. The property is accessed via a shared drive and has a right of access which in turn leads to a private drive to the property and coach house. The property sits in its own private, grounds totalling approximately ½ an acre which have been carefully landscaped with strategic planting of various shrubs and specimen trees and beautifully maintained by its current owners. An immediate attraction of the property is its position and quiet rural setting with captivating views across open fi elds and woodland which are enjoyed from all the main aspects of the property including a long raised terrace. Internally the main residence does not disappoint and is fi lled with charming character features throughout. In our clients’ ownership the property has received a number of signifi cant improvements including the addition of the library on the west wing of the building in 2003.
