Description
Some homes impress the moment you arrive; others make you imagine living there. This remarkable barn conversion is very much the latter.
Tucked away within approximately 1.5 acres of mature, beautifully landscaped grounds, this exceptional home offers a wonderful sense of privacy and tranquillity, yet remains within easy reach of Norwich.
With its soaring vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, generous proportions and abundance of natural light, the property combines all the character of a traditional barn with the comfort and quality of contemporary country living.
Step inside and there is an immediate feeling of light, space and understated luxury.
The beautiful vaulted kitchen is a natural gathering place, with quality cabinetry, a traditional range cooker and plenty of room for relaxed everyday living. Double doors open directly onto the garden and patio, creating an effortless connection between indoors and out.
In the warmer months, throw open the doors and allow the garden to become an extension of the kitchen perfect for long lunches in the sunshine, evening drinks with friends or relaxed summer suppers as the day draws to a close.
