Scaled Up

This magnificent barn dating from 1736 is among several farm buildings converted around 2000. Atalanta and her husband Jules had previously rented a converted barn and that experience instilled a love of great light-filled spaces. It was this combination they fell in love with here and it inspired their refurbishment. The vast, double-height ground floor living space finds the kitchen opening into the dining area and sitting room, as well as a drawing room upstairs - much used in the evenings and warmed by a stove in the double height chimney. This is indeed a home that delivers scale, space and light in abundance.
