Branden Oast is a fabulous conversion of a twin roundel oast with versatile and very well-proportioned accommodation that could provide the opportunity for multi-generational living, subject to minor modifications. Historically, Branden Oast was a working oast house used for drying hops and more latterly an office building, but now having been cleverly and sympathetically converted it provides a stylish and inviting home with plenty of natural light. From the hall, double doors open to an impressive 32ft drawing room with gas fire. There are two adjoining roundels; a study and dining room. A west wing currently incorporates a further sitting room/bedroom 5, study, shower room and utility room and could potentially be a great annexe or teenage suite. The lovely part-vaulted kitchen/breakfast room with floor to ceiling windows to the east elevation, is fitted with a range of cupboards with various integral appliances. On the first floor there are four bedrooms which are served by three bath/shower rooms. Outside there is a small fenced garden to the east of the house whilst to the front there is plenty of parking space. Branden Oast has a right of access over the drive.

A rare opportunity to acquire a building plot with a consented scheme for a substantial contemporary home set in a wonderful rural location. From West St Studio architects this exciting proposal for a barn conversion is a rare opportunity for those looking for a self-build project. There are uninterrupted views over the surrounding fields to the west and north and a wonderful balance of privacy without total isolation. The design connects an existing steel portal barn with a six bay garage by means of a timber and glass link which also forms a courtyard.
