Location - Mill Barn sits outside the main village settlement area of Palgrave towards Wortham yet within a network of quiet narrow country lanes. Keen walkers can head across the fields to Diss, Wortham and along to Palgrave itself as can cyclists take advantage of the tremendous setting. Diss tends to be the destination of choice for day to day shopping given the market town's many and varied shops and facilities. However, a range of alternatives comprise Wortham for an excellent Post Office Stores, Primary School and Tennis Club etc along with Botesdale & Rickinghall and of course, Eye. Palgrave village itself has long been a popular location for a wide cross section of people having as it does an interesting range of individual period property set around a delightful village green. The village primary school is a splendid resource for the village, being within Hartismere High School catchment, along with the Community Centre and Playing Field. With easy access to the A143 and A140 the area is an ideal base for those wishing to commute throughout the region, and the mainline station at Diss provides a commuter service to London Liverpool Street in around 90 minutes. The Lowes footpath links the village to Diss and is a handy off-road cycle route to the station as well as the town. The access to Lowes lane is just across from the end of Millway Lane, making it convenient for Mill Barn.

Description - Mill Barn is for sale on the open market for the first time since conversion. The current owners acquired the property some years ago and set about converting the buildings on site. This was no 'Self-Build' dream but a serious professional project carried out by one of the most renowned local house builders. This quality approach, as with their commercial projects is reflected within the detail of this super property.

Not all converted barns provide liveable homely space and Mill Barn manages to combine that feeling with the light and airiness of a classic Threshing Barn building. The classic threshing door openings face North and South flooding the interior with natural light and to the front fabulous views across farmland to Wortham Ling and Roydon across the Waveney Valley. The combination of rooms allows flexibility of use and can provide up to five bedrooms if required. Two principal en suite rooms enjoy first floor positions along with three additional ground floor rooms and a further bathroom. The main timbered barn serves as a stunning main reception room with full height detail and wonderful oak floorboards. Adjoining to one side lies a welcoming Sitting Room which in turn leads through to the everyday Breakfast Room and Aga Kitchen. The sunny southerly elevation is capitalised upon by a series of glass fronted spaces one ideal as a Garden Room. Together they tie in the ground floor rooms together. French windows lead out onto the sheltered verandah and likewise onto the gardens. The flow is excellent and allows 360 degree movement around the key spaces whilst at the same time allowing bedroom and bathroom spaces to be conveniently at hand but discreetly aside.

Finishing details are many and varied but to name but a few Viewers will be greeted by oak and travertine floors, bespoke joinery and ironmongery, stylish bath and shower room fittings, oak door thresholds and window sills along with pamments. A statement Italian log burning stove adorns the main reception room set off by a feature papered wall as a backdrop. The staircase within this space, equally notable, replicates an early companion-way - a straight flight with steps formed of triangular oak blocks.

The ground floor features underfloor heating with traditional cast style radiators found upstairs. Windows are double glazed within timber frames and power sources include a ground-source heat pump installation, photovoltaic panels, solar panels and conventional oil fired boiler.
