Church Street, Great Ellingham, Attleborough, NR17

Positioned at the front of the plot, the main residence is a remarkable Grade II listed detached period home dating back to the 14th century, with later additions during the 19th century and sensitive modernisation carried out in the 21st century. The property has been sympathetically restored throughout, carefully preserving its rich heritage and abundance of original character features.

Beautifully presented and re-thatched in 2009, with a new ridge completed in 2024, the house offers spacious accommodation including four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and three reception rooms, blending historic charm with practical modern living.

Comprising Entrance Hall, Kitchen, Utility Room, Downstairs Bathroom, Dining Room, Living Room, Study/Bedroom 5, Two sets of Stairs, upstairs; Four Bedrooms and Family Bathroom. Outside; Front & Rear Gardens and Gravel Driveway.

To the rear of the plot is a rare opportunity to acquire and develop existing barns into a luxury detached dwelling within the grounds of a historic 14th-century thatched home. Architect-designed plans have already been prepared for an impressive barn conversion extending to approximately 1,500 sq. ft (STS).

The proposed accommodation includes three double bedrooms, two bathrooms, a separate lounge, and a spacious kitchen opening into a dining area, creating a flexible and contemporary living space full of character.

Opportunities such as this are seldom available, particularly with the flexibility and commercial potential on offer. The plot can be divided, allowing the barn conversion to be developed and sold independently from the original house, creating two separate dwellings.

The overall plot extends to approximately one third of an acre and is can be arranged in two sections. The principal house occupies around one sixth of an acre of established, mature, south-facing gardens, while the converted barn outbuildings, currently completed to a stage between first and second fix, are included as part of the sale.
