Foulsham

Guide Price £400,000 - £450,000.

Once a bustling village pub, this remarkable Grade II Listed property has been lovingly transformed into a stunning family home, retaining its character and charm while offering modern comforts. Steeped in history, it now stands as a unique opportunity to own a piece of Foulsham's heritage.

Stepping inside, you're greeted by the spacious sitting room, where a wood-burner takes centre stage, framed by original beams that whisper of days gone by. The former public house's lively spirit lingers, reimagined as a cosy space perfect for family life. Adjoining this is the dining room, with its captivating inglenook fireplace, harking back to the building's rich past and promising warmth on cooler evenings.

The kitchen, once the hub of hearty meals and village gatherings, has been thoughtfully redesigned to cater to modern needs while retaining its rustic charm. A separate utility room adds practicality, keeping daily tasks tucked neatly out of sight.

The first floor reveals three beautifully proportioned bedrooms, including the principal suite, a haven of comfort complete with an en-suite shower room. A family bathroom on this level provides convenience for all. Upstairs, a fourth bedroom offers a secluded retreat, ideal for guests or a quiet workspace.

Outside, the transformation continues. The enclosed garden, bursting with mature plants and shrubs, offers a tranquil escape, far removed from the lively days of the pub's beer garden. This is a space to relax, entertain, and enjoy the seasons. Practicality is well-considered, with off-road parking for two cars.

Offering 2,131 sq. ft. of living space, this extraordinary property blends its storied past with a new chapter, ready for those seeking a home rich in character, history, and charm.
