Converted Grade II Listed Barn built circa 1730 of red brick with a pan-tiled roof. The conversion was completed in 2003.
The barn is approximately 4 miles from both Beccles and Bungay, both of which offer most amenities including a swimming pool, golf course, main-line railway station, and schools with excellent reputations. It is also only 20 miles to Norwich where there is an international airport
The accommodation consists of:
Bedroom one - approached by a galleried landing and has an en-suite (4.2m x 5.2m / 13'10" x 17')
Bedroom two (3.4m x 3.1m / 11' x 10')
Bedroom three (3.1m x 3.1m / 10' x 10')

Reclaimed materials have been used sympathetically in the conversion, with floorboards on most floors. The house has a welcoming and cosy feel in spite of the well-retained “barn” atmosphere.
There are numerous outbuildings, including original brick built stabling for up to four horses, a generous double garage, large former cattle shed, lean-to pole barn and an open fronted cart-shed used as a wood store.
A large gravel courtyard with a raised bed is to the south of the barn and there are lawned areas, a kitchen garden, small orchard with several established fruit trees, a “secret” garden with mature shrubs etc, a good sized wildlife pond and a paddock of approximately three acres.
The barn has considerable privacy without being too remote.
