Versatile barn conversion with two income-generating annexes and nearly an acre of gardens.
Circa 0.75 acre plot with mature gardens and sweeping driveway
Tucked within the peaceful village of Freethorpe, Elm Barn is a spacious, recently renovated barn conversion set in about 0.75 acres (STMS). The principal single-storey barn offers flexible living with three to four bedrooms, generous reception rooms that open to far-reaching countryside views, and well-considered character details blended with contemporary finishes. Two self-contained one-bedroom annexes expand possibilities for extended family use or income generation as holiday lets.
The plot is a standout: sweeping driveway, off-street and covered parking, mature planting and an outbuilding that currently houses a substantial home office — ideal for remote working. Practical environmental features include solar panels (with feed-in tariff), an EV charging point and air-source heating, helping running costs and appeal to eco-conscious buyers.
Buyers should note a few practical considerations. The property’s main heating fuel is LPG (not a communal gas supply), council tax sits at Band E, and the annexes are registered for business rates. Energy ratings vary across the buildings (one annex rated E, another D, main barn B), so there is some scope for further efficiency improvements if desired.
Overall this is a highly versatile country home that suits families wanting space and countryside living, buyers seeking a house with annex income potential, or those looking for a combination of home and workspace in a quiet village setting.
