Summary - 29 BUNWELL STREET BUNWELL NORWICH NR16 1NA
5 bed 2 bath Detached
Spacious countryside home with separate two‑bed annex and field views.
Grade II listed farmhouse dating from the 1520s with extensive period features
An unusually intact Grade II listed farmhouse, Holgate Farm blends sixteenth-century character with flexible modern living across roughly 2,860 sq ft. The principal house retains exposed beams, vaulted ceilings and substantial reception rooms, while a self-contained two-bedroom annex offers multi-generational use or rental potential. The property sits in about 0.57 acres with open field views, a gravel in-and-out drive and a double garage.
Practical realities are clear: the home carries listed status which will limit alterations and may complicate works, and the EPC is rated E, so energy performance and running costs are likely higher than a new build. Heating sources are mixed (air source heat pump and electric systems are recorded alongside oil heating), so buyers should confirm services and running arrangements. There are two bathrooms for five main bedrooms, which may prompt reconfiguration for larger families.
This is a strong choice for buyers seeking provenance, space and rural privacy rather than a low‑maintenance modern home. The annex provides immediate versatility for income or independent family use. With careful conservation-led updating, the property offers scope to enhance comfort and efficiency while keeping its important historic features.
Location benefits include village amenities, low local crime and easy access to Wymondham, Diss and Norwich for schools, rail links and supermarkets. Viewings and any planned works should take account of listed‑building consent and confirm utility details before purchase.
