Cherry Tree Road, Tibenham, Norwich, NR16

Substantial barn conversion with extensive outbuildings and grounds of about 3 acres.

Description

West End Barn, a meticulously designed traditional barn conversion, seamlessly combines traditional charm with modern functionality. Built with the aim of retaining the character of the original barn, the current owners have successfully achieved high quality throughout and crucially blending the exposed timbers so perfectly with the high ceilings to keep welcoming natural light present. The flexible layout prioritizes practical living, featuring a spacious 39ft by 16ft sitting room ideal for family gatherings and entertaining. The grand entrance hall showcases a solid oak staircase, emphasizing the property's quality from the moment you step inside.

The dwelling encompasses a range of well-thought-out spaces, including a formal dining room, a sunroom that brings the outdoors in, and a library and study, providing an excellent home office setup. These versatile rooms can easily adapt to different needs, offering flexibility for both reception spaces or as an additional fifth bedroom if needed. The farmhouse kitchen, complete with a utility and boot room is an excellent social hub of the property and has been finished to an exacting standard. The bespoke burr oak cabinetry blends perfectly with the Kashmir granite worktops and Indian river stone flooring. The ground floor is rounded off with two double bedrooms with en suites. Heading upstairs reveals two more double bedrooms, each with its own en suite and quality wide board elm flooring. Overall, West End Barn strikes a balance between functionality and elegance, offering a refined and comfortable living experience.

Outside
Accessed through a wooden gate, the expansive gravel driveway provides abundant parking for numerous vehicles. Nestled within a generous plot of about 3 acres, the grounds primarily are laid to lawns, presenting the opportunity for subdivision into paddocks if a buyer desires. The property is complemented by a range of substantial outbuildings, comprising a double garage, cart shed, wood store and an extensive series of workshops.

These outbuildings not only enhance the property's functionality but also present intriguing potential for different uses. With the necessary planning permissions, there exists the prospect of converting these structures into secondary accommodation or exploring the possibility of holiday lets. The expansiveness of the grounds and the flexibility offered by the outbuildings contribute to the overall appeal of West End Barn and make for one of the most complete and unique packages on the market that must be viewed to be appreciated.
