4 bedroom barn conversion for sale

Granary Barn is a former agricultural outbuilding of Cannister Hall which has been sympathetically converted to provide a characterful barn conversion with open joists and pine floorboards, substantial beams to vaulted ceilings and exposed brick walls. The accommodation is laid out over 3 storeys and comprises an open plan kitchen/dining/living room, ground floor shower room with a landing upstairs leading to 3 bedrooms and a bathroom.  To the second floor, there is a large principal bedroom and bathroom with a freestanding roll top bath.  The property further benefits from UPVC double-glazed windows throughout, traditional ledge and brace internal doors and a west facing garden garden to the rear overlooking paddocks.

Granary Barn is situated on a complex of similarly converted buildings and is being offered to the market on a new 125 year lease. The property must be purchased as a second home and can only be occupied for 48 weeks of the year and an annual service charge applies (£4,400 for 2023/24 including buildings insurance). This covers the use and maintenance of the extensive shared facilities including, on site, a detached indoor swimming pool, games room and laundry room, TV licence, water rates and emptying the septic tank. There is designated parking close to the property and to the east a lawned garden for shared use.  Offered for sale with no onward chain, the current owners have successfully let Granary barn out as a holiday cottage and the furniture, fixtures and fittings are available by separate negotiation.

Toftrees is a small rural hamlet with a village church with evidence that there has been a settlement here since Roman times with an entry in the Domesday Book of 1086. The market town of Fakenham is approximately 2 miles away and is often referred to as the “gateway” to North Norfolk. On the banks of the River Wensum and nestling between the historic city of Norwich and the medieval port of King’s Lynn, Fakenham is also only a short drive to the beautiful north Norfolk coastline some 11 miles away. Once renowned for its successful printing industry, Fakenham is now better known for Norfolk’s only national hunt racecourse and its popular weekly markets, flea market and saleroom. People come from far and wide on market and race days transforming the central marketplace.
