Description

Guide Price £500,000 - £550,000

In a tucked away location, this charming barn conversion enjoys countryside views with nature on your doorstep. This charming barn conversion which complements a collection of four, boasts stunning countryside views with nature on your doorstep. Tucked away, secluded, and positioned to the rear it is blessed with views over neighbouring paddocks and fields beyond.

The local area allows for beautiful country walks, along with access to the historic market town of Hingham, which not only has an array of traditional shops, but it also has regular public transport direct to Norwich.

Approached via a well-maintained, shared shingle driveway, each resident has its own designated parking providing a glimpse of community life, whilst still allowing privacy. Furthermore, there is an en-bloc double garage.

Entering via the rear courtyard garden, you’ll discover a secluded space to enjoy alfresco dining and drinking. An added bonus is that the courtyard leads directly into the open-plan living space.

The accommodation expands over 1,500 sq. ft., featuring an impressive 42ft open-plan living space incorporating a kitchen, dining, and living room. The kitchen has a separate pantry, ideal for home baking and storage. Additionally, there is a utility room fitted with plumbing for a washing machine and leads into the cloakroom. The living space includes exposed trusses and a brick surround fireplace, housing a wood burning stove, ideal for those cold winter evenings snuggled up in front of the fire. Furthermore, there are patio doors leading out onto the main garden.

All three bedrooms are located of the hallway, the principal suite has a walk in wardrobe, en-suite, and a quirky mezzanine area above with a fitted ladder, which is ideal for storage and perfect for children playing hide and seek!

Stepping outside into main garden, post and rail fencing defines the boundaries with a large laid to lawn area, offering a real blank canvas for a keen gardener to get their teeth stuck into. However, it would also make an ideal outside space for children to enjoy and kick a football around. Furthermore, the neighbouring paddock often has the neighbouring owners’ horses in.

SCOULTON
Local archaeological studies have shown findings in the village of Scoulton dating back to Palaeolithic times. Within the village there is an active Village Hall and also the Church of the Holy Trinity; with the added benefit of nearby proximity to the well served market town of Hingham (2.5 miles), where grand Georgian architecture surrounds the market place and village green.

Despite the influence and attractions of neighbouring Norwich, an active and independent town life continues to thrive and grow in Hingham. Amenities include a family butcher, The White Hart Hotel gastropub, café, library, primary school, excellent health centre, doctors surgery and frequent bus services providing access to the surrounding villages and towns of Wymondham, Attleborough, Watton, Dereham and Norwich.

Less than 10 miles away is Wymondham. A bustling town, famous for its Abbey, and offers direct train links to Norwich, Cambridge and London, Kings Cross making it ideal for commuting. Wicklewood Primary School is approximately 1 mile away and is rated outstanding in the Ofsted report and both Wymondham College and Wymondham High are also just minutes away. Wymondham provides excellent facilities including a Waitrose supermarket and an interesting array of boutique shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants.

From panoramic field views and country walks, to wondering through the neighbouring market towns and the vibrant city of Norwich, Scoulton offers the best of both worlds.
