5 Bed Barn Conversion House For Sale Watton Road, Norwich, NR16

A rare opportunity to purchase a recently converted barn-style home, which has been completed to the highest standard.

This attractive property also comes with a 0.75-acre paddock (STMS).

The ground floor features a hallway entrance, ground floor WC, separate utility room, 30ft. open plan kitchen/dining/living room, and ground floor en-suite bedroom, which provides a high degree of versatility-currently used as an additional reception room.

The upstairs offers four further double bedrooms, two of which have their own en-suite facilities, an additional bath-room, and a spacious landing, which enjoys the additional benefit of having ample space for a study.

Whilst the front façade is that of a traditional Norfolk barn, the rear is contemporary, and the blend of these two styles should be viewed to be appreciated.
