Stunning detached barn in grounds of 3.91 acres
Description
<B>The Property</b>
Church Farm Barn is a stunning detached property situated in the highly popular village of Alburgh on the Norfolk/Suffolk border.
Offering over 4,300 sq ft of flexible and high quality accommodation which offers scope for entertaining on a grand scale and would suit both multi-generational families and couples alike.
The accommodation revolves around a central area of impressive and elegant reception rooms which offer a zonal living arrangement creating both an open plan feel but, importantly, also very separate spaces. These include three spacious sitting rooms, two with log burners, as well as a spectacular double-height entrance hall and dining room.
The large, live-in kitchen features a cream 4-oven aga and spacious pantry. Off the kitchen, a spacious and fully equipped utility/boot room offers access to the gardens and terraces.
Of particular note is the lower level and essential home office, which features an impressive glass ceiling to allow for light and creates an ideal working retreat and the mezzanine area with a spectacular view of the grounds providing a secondary home-working space.
Accessed from the double-height hall, the first floor is divided into two halves. To one side the stunning principal suite, consisting of a spacious bedroom with high vaulted ceiling and featuring a wonderful en suite bath and shower room and a dressing area with fitted wardrobes. To the other side of the galleried mezzanine can be found two further double bedrooms, each with a dedicated bath/shower room.
In a separate wing on the ground floor, with its own external access, is a two double bedroomed guest suite serviced by a bathroom. This also presents an opportunity for multigenerational living or even for AirBnB rental.
<B>Outside</b>
The property is approached via a double five-bar wooden gate leading to an ample gravel driveway with parking for several vehicles. Several outbuildings are in situ, including a three-bay oak-framed Cart Lodge, divided into two open bays with the enclosed third bay housing a fully equipped gym and providing access to secure and insulated loft storage. A separate block houses three stables and a tack room, providing extensive storage for garden machinery and a workshop or allowing for excellent equestrian use should a purchaser wish to take advantage of the grounds for this purpose.
The grounds, totalling approximately 3.91 acres provide excellent privacy as well as offering fine countryside views and the property stands handsomely within them.
The house is surrounded by patioed terracing, including two walled courtyards, which make for excellent spots to entertain friends and family and for outdoor cooking.
Location
Located in the idyllic Waveney Valley village of Alburgh where there is an Ofsted ‘Good’ primary school and bus services to Harleston and Norwich. The property is approximately 19 miles to the south of Norwich which provides excellent retail, gastronomic and cultural offerings with a vibrant and award-winning covered market, a plethora of cafes and restaurants to suit all tastes, theatres and a growing art sector.
