BECKETTS BARN, LOVINGTON, SOMERSET, BA7 7PY
A wonderfully characterful barn conversion occupying a peaceful position on the edge of this popular Somerset village, with far-reaching countryside views and approximately 1.75 acres of gardens and grounds.
Becketts Barn was sympathetically converted, retaining and enhancing the building’s original character while creating a comfortable and highly individual country home. Features include flagstone and reclaimed oak floors, exposed beams, bespoke oak joinery and a magnificent vaulted living room.

Outside, a sweeping drive provides ample parking and leads to an integral double garage. The gardens and grounds extend to approximately 1.75 acres and include grass paddocks, mature trees, and established hedgerows.
