North Walsham: 3 miles, the coast at Happisburgh: 6 miles, Norwich: 17 miles. The Property A substantial Grade II listed period barn of circa 1800 traditionally constructed of mellow red brick under a thatched roof. The property was acquired by the current owners in 2005 and was beautifully and sympathetically converted between 2007 and 2009 to a high standard to create a spacious family house with imaginative and well thought out accommodation. The conversion included the use of a lot of natural oak with a magnificent main reception and staircase hall and a custom- built hand painted kitchen with Aga. The house stands well in beautifully landscaped gardens and grounds and there are two one bedroom holiday cottages, Annexe Barn 1 and Annexe Barn 2, as well as The Cart Lodge Cottage which has two bedrooms. The Cart Lodge Cottage is currently used by a family member and the annexe barns currently yield a combined income of about £17,000 - £18,000 per annum.
