Moncrieff Barn offers a unique opportunity to acquire a period barn, believed to date from the fifteenth century, set in the heart of the village of Pulborough. The name Moncrieff derives from a famous Scottish Clan.
Previously owned by the famous Johns family who managed and produced bands such as The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, The Who and the Eagles.
The present owner has maintained the building to a very high standard and enhanced the accommodation with the addition of a contemporary two storey studio combining modern style with character features and a useful car port.
The property offers scope for a number of uses and there is potential for creating an additional, internal annexe (subject to usual consent).
As you enter the Barn the immense character and sense of history is immediately evident, the reception hall with its high galleried landing opening onto the first floor level reception room and impressive chimney breast compliment the building as a whole.
The accommodation comprises:-
