Description

Description School Farm is a most attractive and delightfully positioned mixed residential and commercial opportunity, comprising a detached residence together with a substantial attached addition, and a range of commercial buildings with superb potential.

The main house was built in 1851, being constructed of traditional brickwork in a Queen Anne style for the west wing with gothic style shape in the northern gable. The house was later enlarged in 1896 with the addition of an attached teacher's house almost doubling the size of the original dwelling.

Sometime during the late 1950's the school was scheduled for closure and has since been converted to a domestic dwelling being used in conjunction with the family business. The whole amounts to 4.74 acres (stms) of formal gardens, orchard, woodland, and the vast range of mixed-use commercial buildings, all in very good order.

The main house is approached at the front into the entrance hall which flows past the utility and into the reception hall with an attractive staircase and floor to ceiling windows flooding the hall and piano room with a great deal of natural light. The piano room acts as the focal point to the home linking in with the kitchen and sitting room, with the latter enjoying an independent staircase up to the principal bedroom with a delightful four-piece en-suite bathroom. At the rear of the house lies a super garden room which was added in the last 10 years and enjoys fine views over the formal gardens.

On the first floor the staircase flows up to the upper sitting room with a particular feature being the southerly views over the adjacent farmland. The upper sitting room acts as a great space for children with two double bedrooms and a WC accessed from the landing. The second bedroom benefits from an en-suite bathroom. The attached portion of School Farm has been used for a number of different purposes, more recently under an assured shorthold tenancy agreement. The house enjoys well-arranged accommodation on two floors being approached at the front into an entrance hall with access provided into the sitting room and dining room. off the dining room lies the kitchen which links in with the study, garden room and utility. The family bathroom is on the ground floor.

The first floor provides access to two double bedrooms and a dressing room. we draw your attention to the floors as to how the accommodation is arranged. 

Commercial Buildings School Farm provides an excellent opportunity to live and run a business from one location. The commercial element of the property comprises a former pig farm with 2 converted piggery units providing a combination of offices, WC's, kitchen and stores. There is an additional highbay warehouse/ industrial unit of steel portal frame construction with a combination of blockwork, metal profile and asbestos sheet elevations. The roof is insulated with roof lights and two heaters. The workshop has 3-phase electricity.

Externally, there is plenty of yard space and a separate access to the commercial buildings providing shielding for the residential properties.

Rateable value: Broadland  

£9,000

Use The commercial buildings were formerly occupied by an engineering company who benefitted from planning consent for light industrial and manufacturing use. However, we understand this use consent was specific to their occupation and the use may have reverted back to agricultural use. Interested parties are recommended to make enquiries to Broadland District Council.  

Outside The property is approached from the road and a drive leads up to the side of School Farm where there is a shingled area leading up to the double garage with twin electric remote controlled roller doors, being constructed of brick under a pitched roof. There is a large area of hardstanding which leads up to one of the main barns and a large gate leads into the farm.

A separate shingled drive is accessed from the other side of the property which heads away to the east and provides further hard standing for vehicles.

The grounds around the house include the front gardens with mature hedging screening the property from the road, together with the formal rear garden with terrace approached from the garden room and kitchen. This is a delightful private area leading down to a well landscaped lawn with topiary. This area is used a great deal in the summer months, and from here there is access to the woodland belt with views of the St Andrews Church.
