Full Description - Location
Winfarthing is a semi-rural village located just off the B1077 between Old Buckenham and Diss, with the later just 5 miles away and having an excellent range of facilities including schooling to sixth form level, local and national shops and various sports clubs (rugby, tennis, football and golf course to name a few). Transport links are good with Diss having a mainline rail service on the Norwich to London Liverpool line (journey time of 90 minutes), Norwich itself is just 20 miles away and the A11 giving a swift route to Newmarket and Cambridge is 5 miles away. This is an attractive property in a semi-rural position combining the country lifestyle with easy access to facilities.

The Property
Owned by the same family for several decades, this attractive 17th century, Grade II listed farmhouse offers 4 bedrooms, 2 spacious reception rooms, as well as a kitchen/diner. There is plenty of character, including a prominent fireplace and whilst the house is in fair condition, its reasonable that most buyers would look to modernise the property.

Associated grounds
In recent years the owners have tended to utilise a wider driveway which dissects the house and historic barn, there is a further driveway directly to the front of the farmhouse which leads through the middle of the lawns, which have mature trees and shrubs to borders.
The gardens continue to the side and rear. The rear garden is also lawned with fence surround; a blank canvas for the next owner to redesign if desired.

The barns

Agricultural barn has full planning permission granted.
The Historic timber-framed barn is located closer to the road and also has full planning passed for residential conversion, and with the annexe, together with permission to replace the Nissen hut into a cart lodge style garage’

South Norfolk planning references:
Rear Agricultural barn: 2024/0476
Front Historic barn: 2019/1166

Agent notes:
The sellers have informed us that some underpinning work has been carried out on the annexe, which results in the continuation of the planning permission for both the Historic Timber barn and the annexe.
Some of the buildings shown on the illustrative plan have been removed.

CIL: The development subject to Community Infrastructure Levy payment to South Norfolk Council, details/ costs of which can be found on the South Norfolk planning portal.


Services
The farmhouse has mains water, electricity and oil fired central heating and some electric panel heaters. Private drainage system is thought to discharge across the left hand driveway, close to the historic barn.
