Set within a peaceful and picturesque corner of Norfolk, this exquisite barn conversion offers a perfect retreat from the everyday, with breathtaking countryside views and a generous 0.66 acre plot STMS . Nestled at the entrance of an exclusive private development, this former cart shed of Old Hall Farm was thoughtfully converted in 2017 by a respected local builder, seamlessly blending traditional craftsmanship with contemporary comfort. Clad in beautiful waney edge timber beneath a classic pantile roof, the barn is accompanied by a matching double garage, enhancing its character and charm.
A true highlight of this home is the private pond, carefully maintained by the current owners. Stocked with a variety of fish and surrounded by seasonal wildflowers, it attracts an abundance of wildlife, creating a tranquil haven that enhances the natural beauty of the setting.
Stepping inside, the barn s impressive interiors immediately captivate. The spacious reception hall, with its solid oak staircase, sets the tone for the high quality finishes found throughout. Exposed structural timbers add warmth and character, contrasting beautifully with the sleek contemporary design. The inviting sitting room enjoys dual aspect views, looking out over both the pond and open fields an idyllic space for relaxation or entertaining. The kitchen and dining room, equally generous in size, offers another wonderful setting for hosting, filled with natural light from its own dual aspect. A dedicated study provides a quiet retreat for home working or creative pursuits, while the adjoining utility room and cloakroom add everyday practicality.
Upstairs, a spacious landing offers the perfect nook to sit with a book while enjoying views of the surrounding landscape. Three well proportioned bedrooms provide peaceful sanctuaries, with bedrooms one and two enjoying picturesque outlooks across the pond or rolling countryside. The principal bedroom is further enhanced by an elegant en suite and built in wardrobes, while a stylish family bathroom serves the remaining rooms.
Outside, a five bar wooden gate opens onto a generous shingled driveway, offering ample parking in addition to the double garage. A stone pathway leads around the barn, while the beautifully maintained lawns, enclosed by classic post and rail fencing, frame the property in a quintessentially rural setting.
Offering a rare blend of space, seclusion, and sophisticated country living, this exceptional barn is an opportunity not to be missed. Whether you dream of peaceful mornings by the pond, hosting lively gatherings in the heart of the home, or simply embracing the Norfolk countryside, this is a place where lifestyle and tranquillity go hand in hand.
