Kelling

A distinguished and highly individual home, Kings Barn was created within the intricate walls of an historic Norfolk barn and embraces the unique architecture and features it has to offer throughout.

Set over two floors and extending to around 2,500sq ft. the accommodation flows effortlessly through the intricate shapes of the barn to create magnificent living space, intimate bedrooms and a wealth of functionality.

Central to the barn is a wonderful, open-plan living area that cleverly combines a dining area and sitting room to provide not only exceptional entertaining space but a warm and cosy environment. The dining area features exposed beams to the ceiling and wide, bi-fold doors leading onto a south-facing terrace and gardens. The sitting room is a real feast for the eye with double-height ceilings that create a decadent atmosphere, whilst an ornate brick fireplace with a wood-burner, intricate exposed beams, and highly decorative wall panels provide warmth and comfort.

Away from the central living space is a charming snug/family room. A place to rest and hunker down on a winters evening with the wood-burner roaring. This delightful room enjoys a dual aspect over the gardens with french doors onto a west-facing terrace.

The kitchen/breakfast room provides the perfect sociable hub for the barn and features robust, in-frame Shaker-style cabinetry topped with granite worktops along with a suite of integral appliances. This generous space allows for an informal dining area set under a vaulted and beamed ceiling. Adjacent to the kitchen is a utility/laundry room as well as a guest WC. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a highly versatile and accessible bedroom. Above the bedroom is a small mezzanine area for occasional use and storage.

A truly magnificent staircase leads to the first-floor landing and features a highly decorative steel balustrade and concave flint walls. The landing area is dominated by the impressive ceilings that rise to the apex of the barns roof. A unique patchwork, parquet floor adorns the landing whilst views over the living area add drama to this immense space.

The first floor features three highly individual bedrooms each packed with ornate detail. The principal bedroom is a real show stopper with vaulted ceilings, exposed flint walls, and distinctive angled windows. This wonderful bedroom is served by an en-suite shower room. Both bedrooms two and three are generously proportioned and are served by a sumptuous family-sized bathroom.

Kings Barn is set in glorious, landscaped gardens that have been beautifully designed to create a magical environment.

On the south side of the barn, a terraced garden fully enclosed by flint walls is a haven in the sun, featuring banks of colourful shrub and flowering beds set around an ornamental Koi pond.

To the rear of the barn a lawned garden that provides a discreet and enclosed space that wraps around on two sides of the building with block paved terracing and established soft landscaping. A quiet corner features raised beds for herbs and vegetables along with a timber framed potting shed.

On the west elevation of the barn is a wonderful, coastal themed arid garden enclosed by curved flint walls.

A private, carriage driveway and courtyard area provides ample off-road parking, and access to a detached, brick and flint double garage and attached workshop. The garage features power and lighting along with electrically operated door and EV charging points.
