What makes this a unique and rare offering is the extensive period barns that come with the sale. Firstly, there is a wonderful two bedroom, detached barn known as 'Jerry's Barn' which has been expertly converted to provide a contemporary residence with a private courtyard garden and parking. This special barn is currently used as a guest house and highly successful holiday let. Further utilised barns include an attractive single storey building that houses a versatile studio and an external boiler/plant room for the 'Biomass' system.
Set around a central courtyard, you will find an extensive range of unconverted period barns that benefit from full residential planning for 3 dwellings plus further barns with excellent potential. This group of attractive barns boast a footprint in excess of 6000 sq. ft. on one level and offers endless potential and a diverse range of uses in addition to the residential planning. Each barn has allocated outside space, independent access and parking separate to the main farmhouse.
The land, which extends to around 6 acres (stms), is cleverly divided into functional areas that include traditional gardens around the farmhouse, a delightful grassed meadow to the east of the farmhouse that links to the formal gardens plus further acreage which sits to the west and is enclosed by mature tree lines and is a haven for diverse wildlife. A private woodland, established around thirty years ago, provides further enjoyment and features a selected range of indigenous trees and a mixture of deciduous and evergreen species to promote diversity.
'Abbey Farm' offers the rarest of opportunities to purchase a fine period residence set in glorious private grounds with the benefit of extensive and versatile barns for further development and/or an endless variety of uses. Full detail of the planning permission is available on request or alternatively it can be viewed on North Norfolk District Council's planning portal with the planning reference PF/15/1310.

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
