4 bedroom detached house for sale

Guide Price £950,000 - £1,000,000.

Tucked away at the end of a quiet country lane in the peaceful parish of Rockland All Saints, Willow Tree Barn sits within over an acre of private grounds, framed by open fields and unspoilt countryside. This is a home for those who value space, seclusion, and a sense of escape, without compromising on comfort or style.

From the moment you arrive, the setting makes an impression. There’s an immediate sense of calm and privacy, no passing traffic, no near neighbours, just wide skies, rural views, and the sounds of the landscape. Set within 1.33 acres (STMS), the property is accessed via a discreet driveway and offers ample parking, along with a triple-bay cart lodge/garage. There is also potential to create an annexe above (subject to planning permission), ideal for guests, independent family members, or working from home.

The barn itself was thoughtfully designed by an award-winning architect to offer modern family living with a considered, refined feel. Light and space are at the heart of the home. The expansive kitchen-diner sits at the rear, connecting directly to the garden with views across open fields, a central hub suited to both quiet mornings and sociable evenings. A separate sitting room provides a space for more relaxed living, while the additional playroom or study offers flexibility.

Throughout the property, the standard of finish reflects quality and attention to detail. Warm materials, clean design, and contemporary fittings are matched with practical features such as a utility/boot room and ground-floor WC, making the home as functional as it is stylish.

Upstairs, there are four generous double bedrooms, including a principal suite with dressing area and en-suite bathroom. Bedroom two also has its own en-suite, while a modern family bathroom serves the remaining rooms, perfect for day-to-day family life or accommodating guests with ease.

It’s not just about the house; it’s the lifestyle it offers. Mornings with birdsong, evenings watching the sun set over the fields, weekends spent entirely in your own space. And yet, you’re not cut off: nearby Attleborough and good road links provide easy access to amenities and connections, without compromising the peace and privacy that make Willow Tree Barn so special.

ROCKLAND ALL SAINTS
Rockland All Saints is a charming rural village nestled in the heart of Norfolk’s Breckland district, surrounded by gently undulating farmland, woodland walks, and a deep sense of local heritage. Steeped in history and tranquillity, this peaceful hamlet offers a true taste of countryside living while remaining within easy reach of market towns such as Watton and Attleborough.

Just a short drive away, Watton provides essential amenities including shops, schools, healthcare services, and a weekly market, while Attleborough offers a bustling high street, mainline rail links, and a thriving community atmosphere. Slightly further afield, Dereham and Thetford expand the range of retail, leisure, and cultural opportunities, all within easy reach of village life.

The village takes its name from the ancient parish church of All Saints, with origins dating back to the medieval period. Today, the church stands as a serene focal point for the community, set against a backdrop of open skies and quiet lanes. The surrounding landscape is dotted with character cottages, traditional farmhouses, and a growing number of tastefully converted barns and rural retreats.

Rockland All Saints forms part of the Rocklands, a trio of villages including Rockland St Peter and Rockland St Mary, each contributing to the area’s welcoming and close-knit feel. For families, the local Rocklands Community Primary School offers a well-regarded option close to home, while further educational and practical amenities are just a short drive away in neighbouring towns.

Outdoor enthusiasts are well catered for, with an abundance of countryside walks, bridleways, and cycling routes right on the doorstep. Wildlife is plentiful, and the changing seasons bring new beauty to the hedgerows, woodlands, and meadows that shape the landscape.
