Manor Farm Barns

From the moment you step through the front door, the home reveals itself as a space designed for modern living yet steeped in character. Vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and expansive windows create a light-filled atmosphere, while the floating fireplace forms a dramatic, sculptural focal point. The open-plan layout flows naturally, connecting the living area to the heart of the home: the kitchen and dining space, where family life and entertaining blend seamlessly.

The kitchen is a masterclass in design and functionality, featuring a range-style cooker with extractor hood, integrated microwave, dishwasher, and a ceramic butler-style sink. Elegant marble work surfaces and a central island provide both visual impact and practical workspace, while slate flooring adds a contemporary edge. Electronically operated Velux-style windows allow the space to be bathed in natural light, creating a bright, uplifting atmosphere. French doors open directly onto the garden, extending the living space outdoors and providing an effortless connection to the outdoors.

The master bedroom is a luxurious retreat on the ground floor, complete with a fully fitted walk-in wardrobe and an en-suite shower room, featuring a walk-in shower, contemporary ceramic basin, and refined fixtures.

Upstairs, three further bedrooms offer generous proportions, with one benefiting from its own en-suite. The main bathroom is designed with sophistication in mind, featuring high-quality fittings, vaulted ceilings, and subtle details that enhance the sense of space and light. Exposed beams and thoughtfully positioned windows throughout add a sense of architectural drama and continuity.

The outdoor spaces are a continuation of the home’s elegance, designed for both relaxation and entertaining. The courtyard garden is thoughtfully landscaped, with carefully selected trees providing structure, gentle fragrance, and year-round interest. Vibrant flowering shrubs and seasonal blooms are interspersed throughout, creating pockets of colour. Paved terraces and patio areas offer inviting spaces for alfresco dining, summer gatherings, or quiet mornings with a coffee, while winding pathways and raised beds enhance the garden’s intimate and structured feel.

At the garden’s far end, a substantial timber-framed double garage/workshop offers versatile space for hobbies, or storage, fully equipped with power and lighting. A sheltered carport and shingled parking area provide practicality without compromising the elegance of the setting. Together, the planting and outbuildings create an outdoor environment that is both visually striking and supremely functional, a perfect Mediterranean-inspired retreat within the heart of Norfolk.

Every aspect of the home, from the flowing, light-filled interiors to the meticulously landscaped outdoor spaces, has been designed to offer an elevated lifestyle. Early viewings are strongly recommended to appreciate the exceptional quality and distinctive charm of this property.
