House For Sale £700,000
With far reaching open countryside views, a generous plot of 0.66 acres (STMS) and a quiet, picturesque spot within the heart of Norfolk, this barn truly offers your very own haven to escape everyday life. A feature of the development is the pond which resides within the boundaries of the property and has been thoroughly maintained by the current owners. It has been stocked with a variety of fish and an range of natural, seasonal flowers attracting an array of wildlife.
Residing on the edge of the thriving Norfolk village of Ashill, this exquisite, detached barn conversation stands proud at the beginning of an exclusive, private development of barns, formerly part of Old Hall Farm, used as a cart-shed. The barn was converted in 2017 by a local builder, finished with traditional materials to the exterior finish using superb waney-edge cladding, underneath a pantile roof and accompanied by a double garage finished in the same style.
The internal space was sympathetically finished, retaining the exposed structural timbers which contrasts beautifully with the contemporary high-quality finish. Although the barn is a little over five years old, the owners have further improved the property by replacing the carpets to the entire property as well as the bathroom suites to an extremely high standard.
To the ground floor, you are greeted by a spacious reception hallway, featuring a solid oak staircase rising for the first floor. The sitting room is located to the front of the property and features views not only across the pond but fields to the other aspect, making this a great place to entertain or relax. The kitchen/dining room is of a similar size to the sitting room and enjoys a dual aspect, and again is a great place to host dinner parties or gather together as a family.
If you are looking for a place to work from home or require a place for your hobbies, there is a study off the kitchen. Furthermore, there is a separate utility directly off the kitchen housing the downstairs cloakroom.
Upstairs there are three bedrooms accessed from a spacious landing, an ideal spot in the house to pull up a chair and read a book. Bedrooms one and two are a great size and offer a view of either the pond or rolling countryside. In addition, there is an en-suite, built-in wardrobes and a family bathroom.
The property is entered through a five-bar wooden gate onto a shingled driveway which provides ample parking in addition to the double garage. There is a recently repointed pathway which leads to the garage and around the side of the barn. The grounds consist of lawns which are enclosed by post and rail fencing.
ASHILL Nestled between the market towns of Swaffham and Watton for convenience, Ashill is the epitome of mid-Norfolk living.
The village is quaint, the road through meanders alongside cottages, a community centre and village pub.
The parish church of St Nicholas peers over the wall. Dating back to the 14th century, the church stands close to a group of houses that form the oldest part of the village.
