Jack’s Barn involved the conversion of a pair of disused barns to create a contemporary family home. The existing threshing barn and long barn sit perpendicular to one another. The long barn was a simple brickwork structure, whilst the threshing barn featured large openings, with brickwork piers and king post trusses. Internally the open plan kitchen, living, dining space is located in the magnificent threshing barn. A bridge at first floor connects a bedroom at the far end of the barn with the rest of the house, and allows uninterrupted floor to ceiling glazing in the original openings. Brickwork piers and the king post trusses were cleaned and repaired, and have been left exposed internally. At first floor, five comfortably sized double bedrooms occupy the space, four with ensuite bathrooms.
