Description

The Norfolk Agents are pleased to offer this spacious and beautifully presented character property, occupying a private and mature plot of a little under an acre, in an idyllic rural setting in the heart of rural Norfolk. The barn displays a wealth of character features and offers highly versatile living space, with the potential for a self-contained annexe or even a B&B or Guest House, with five bedrooms which all have en-suite facilities.

The accommodation is arranged in a horseshoe around a central courtyard, with the reception and living space enjoying views over the gardens to the south and east; whilst the bedrooms are largely located in the two-storey part of the barn, with far-reaching views across open countryside to the north. The master and guest bathrooms have both recently been refurbished, providing a luxurious bedroom suite on both floors.

The mature grounds have been created from a blank canvas by the current owners, who have introduced a vegetable patch and various areas of planting within the expanse of lawn to the east of the barn, as well as an established hedge line which now extends along the northern boundary. Gated access from the quiet lane leads onto a private shingle driveway which sweeps around to the rear of the property, where there is a triple garage/workshop and a south-facing paved terrace. In all, the plot extends to c.0.9 acres (stms).

ACCOMMODATION
Visitors are welcomed into the spacious entrance hall, with a decorative fireplace, exposed timberwork and a staircase rising to the first floor, where there are two bedrooms. The landing area is used as an additional sitting room, with an expanse of glazing on the front wall which enjoys exceptional views of the surrounding countryside. The master bedroom on the first floor is a delightful suite, with a recently refurbished shower/wet room with a vanity unit. Across the landing is the fifth bedroom, which has recently been used as a dressing room, with an en-suite shower room and views over the garden.
Steps down from the entrance hall lead down to two further double bedrooms, both of which have en-suite shower facilities and doors opening out to the central courtyard garden. The home office/study is also located in this part of the barn.
To the left of the entrance hall there is a door into an inner hallway which leads to the ground floor guest bedroom and the family living space. The guest bedroom is the largest of the bedrooms, with refurbished en-suite bathroom and double doors opening out to the courtyard. The sitting room is a well-proportioned family room with dual aspect views and double doors opening out to two sides. The sitting room leads through to a lobby area with doors to the formal dining room and snug, both of which have double doors leading out to paved terrace which enjoys the morning sun. The snug is also fitted with a wood burning stove, which adds a sense of cosiness on a winter's day.
The kitchen is another bright and well-proportioned family space for people to congregate, with space for a table and chairs alongside the kitchen. The kitchen comprises a range of cream fronted storage units under composite work surfaces, with a matching central island/breakfast bar. Integrated appliances include a full-height refrigerator, freezer and dishwasher, alongside a free-standing range cooker.
At the back of the kitchen there is a rear entrance lobby which opens in from the parking area, with an extensive range of fitted storage cupboards and doors into the utility/plant room and useful boot room.

The main garage area has multiple electrical sockets and three electrically operated roller doors which open to the front, there is also a separate workshop which has also has a power supply. The garage also has a private WC and hand basin.
