House For Sale £1,000,000
Substantial barn conversion in excellent location.
Description
Lime Kiln Barn is a substantial conversion, with wonderfully light and spacious living space within the traditional and most attractive exterior. With over 4700 square feet of accommodation there is a brilliant adaptability to cater for most living styles and requirements.
The main entrance, with vaulted ceilings, central staircase and brick arch is an impressive welcome to the house, with immediate views through to the gardens behind the house. Practical solid floors throughout lead you to the main reception rooms, with glazed partitioning walls continuing the light theme. The principal rooms include a dining room and living room (with woodburner), measuring 6m x 6.6m, separated by an inner hall that collectively feels open plan, with a study and a library providing relatively cosy rooms to enjoy, with the study having French doors out to the south facing courtyard. The barn is the classic ‘U’ shape of many former agricultural barns, with one wing hosting the delightful kitchen, with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, Aga, Island unit and a glazed elevation to the east. Beyond the kitchen is the essential utility/boot room and shower room/WC.
The second wing is home to the bedrooms, providing a great practicality to the house by separating the entertaining and day to day living areas from the more quiet areas. There are two en-suite bedrooms, and two bedrooms served by a family bathroom. The spacious principal bedroom is on the first floor, complete with dressing room and bath/shower room, alongside a hugely impressive family room, with striking vaulted ceilings.
Outside
Lime Kiln Barn is approached from the south, through a pair of wooden five bar gates. The drive then continues through panelled gates into the south courtyard with car ports and parking, whilst also spurring off to the east of the barn with a gravelled drive to a further parking for many cars to the north of the barn.
The barn enjoys two substantial courtyards, both enclosed and private, and providing the opportunity to follow the sun throughout the day. The initial courtyard to the south is the largest of the two, with brick paving throughout, leading to the five bay car port, enabling storage of cars, boats, bikes and other equipment. There is a storage room at one end of the car port.
The second courtyard, conveniently adjoining the kitchen, is a brilliant space for outdoor and entertaining with fine views of the garden, with a large expanse of lawn sweeping away from the house left open for ease of maintenance, and dotted with mature and young trees. A fenced kitchen garden and fruit cages offer an opportunity to grow fresh produce, with a traditional garage and store building and garden shed completing the outside features.
Location
Lime Kiln Farm is located in unspoilt countryside, on the edge of the outer park of Heydon Hall and about half a mile from the village. The picturesque village, owned by the Estate, is completely charming and brilliantly preserved and the epitome of an English rural village. With attractive green, overlooked by architecturally distinguished houses, this is a destination village at the end of a no-through road. At the heart of it all is the popular public house ‘The Earle Arms’, a thriving bakery ‘Husk’, renowned tea room, the interiors shop ‘Moochi Modo’ and florist and artisan store ‘The Wallflower and Wallace’. Further offerings within the village include a beauty and wellbeing barn, Pewter gift shop and hairdressers. The estate owners allow access to the park on a permissive basis, working in with the livestock and farming elements of the estate. This allows for visitors and inhabitants to wander freely through the historic park.
Further amenities are in the nearby thriving market town of Reepham with a good selection of shops, a Co-Op supermarket, green grocer, baker, butcher, hardware shop and florist. There are several cafes and the popular Dial House Restaurant, bed and breakfast with two public houses. The town has a highly regarded secondary school with an adjoining sixth form college. There is also an art gallery, several antique shops, news agent, post office and health care centre and pharmacy. The town is conveniently situated along the Marriott’s Way, a public owned 26 mile disused railway trail between Norwich and Aylsham. Parts of this trail are used for walking, cycling and horse riding.
The ever popular town of Holt is about 13 miles and is famous as the home of Gresham’s Public School as well as for its excellent independent shops and restaurants. The town of Aylsham is about 7 miles and also has a lovely market square, with the national trust owned Blickling Estate to the north-west of the town. There are also excellent shopping facilities.
The cathedral city and regional centre of Norwich is about 14 miles and the North Norfolk Coast, renowned for its sandy beaches, bird reserves and sailing facilities is about 3 miles to the north of Holt.
