The Long Barn, 134 Genn Lane, Worsbrough, Barnsley, S70 6NW

NOW REDUCED !!!! Imagine coming home to your stone built barn conversion. Imagine relaxing in a huge living room with exposed roof oak beams that have been there since the 1600's. Imagine a family kitchen with the AGA cooking away - Well stop imagining and come and see it in real life - Here it is !

The Long Barn is the best of both worlds. It's in a lovely rural setting with views out over the valley towards Wentworth Castle yet it's only a short drive onto the M1. It's only a few minutes away from the rail station in Barnsley along with all the shops and entertainments or the shopping experience at Cortonwood or Meadowhall Shopping Centres. It really is a great location and with no upper chain, you can move in as soon as you like!

The Long Barn is part of a small community of four separate dwellings that originally made up the farm houses and buildings. They date back to the 1600's and possibly even earlier and are all Grade II listed buildings. They surround a gravel courtyard which, no doubt, was once the farm yard.

The Long Barn has been cleverly converted into a living accommodation that works well with both the modern need for comfort and efficiency along side the character that a property of this age can provide. There's ancient oak beams yet modern electric garage doors. There's exposed stone wall features yet a modern AGA gas fire range. It's a real mix of old and new that works really well to make a very special home for you.
