It has a recorded floor area of 230 m² (around 2476 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1983-1990.

Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for Kirkstile Barn. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
