4 bedroom barn for sale

NO ONWARD CHAIN !! The Norfolk Agents are delighted to offer Mardle Barn, a stylish and contemporary barn conversion occupying a private 0.4 acre plot on the outskirts of North Elmham, with spectacular views over the surrounding countryside. The barn offers superb accommodation over two floors, with an impressive 30ft x 20ft open-plan living space as its centrepiece, incorporating expanses of glazing to two sides. This beautifully finished and cleverly designed property offers something of interest wherever you look, from the double-sided feature fireplace in the snug to the Juliet balconies in the master bedroom and galleried landing, which also overlooks the main living space.

The barn is approached over a private gated driveway which sweeps around to a parking area between the main house and a newly constructed 60ft x 28ft open-fronted barn, which offers a huge amount of potential; whether as storage or workshop space, or even for conversion into additional accommodation (subject to relevant planning consents). The professionally landscaped gardens extend to the south, east and west of the barn, with seating areas to enjoy the sun and views throughout the day.

As well as focussing on the elegant design of the barn and grounds, the owners have also gone out of their way to ensure that the property is as sustainable and efficient to run as possible, with an air source heat pump providing underfloor heating to both floors and a solar array with battery storage contributing to the property's 'A' rating.

ACCOMMODATION

Visitors are welcomed into the entrance hall at the side of the property, where there is a large coat cupboard and doors into the main open-plan living space. Within the living space there is a relaxed seating area alongside a space for a large dining table with chairs at one end of the room, and a high-quality fitted kitchen at the other. The seating area is adjacent to the south elevation of the barn, with floor to ceiling glazing and a set of bi-folding doors which allows natural light to flood in. The beautifully appointed kitchen includes an extensive collection of fitted storage units in dark grey with feature plinth lighting, under quartz work surfaces and a matching 3m x 1.8m island unit with breakfast bar. Appliances include a full-height wine chiller, double Smeg oven, fridge, freezer and a dishwasher. To the side of the kitchen is another set of bi-folding doors which open out on to a delightful east-facing terrace with exceptional field views.

In addition to the main living space, there is also a separate snug/TV room with bi-folding doors on the west facing wall and one side of a double-sided fireplace which also faces the seating area in the main living space. From the snug, there is a contemporary glass sided staircase which rises to the first floor. To the side of the snug is a versatile ground floor guest bedroom with fitted wardrobes and double doors to the garden, which could serve as an additional reception space if required. There is also a separate utility room and a luxurious shower room on the ground floor.

The first floor bedroom accommodation is arranged around a spacious galleried landing with a Juliet balcony at one end and a central galleried area which overlooks the main living space. The delightful master suite includes a large bedroom with fitted wardrobes and a Juliet balcony with bi-folding doors to the east. The en-suite bathroom offers the height of luxury, with a free-standing bath, separate shower and twin hand basins. Bedrooms 3 and 4 are double rooms of identical proportions, both with built-in storage. There is also a useful study/home office with a large eaves storage space. Bedrooms 3 and 4 are both served by another beautifully appointed 4-piece bathroom.
