Set on just over two acres in the Norfolk village of Upwell, this substantial detached home offers flexible living for a large family or an investor seeking rental or equestrian potential. The main house provides up to five bedrooms, three bathrooms and spacious reception rooms including a bay-front lounge and a sun lounge/conservatory that opens onto extensive grounds. A self-contained one-bedroom annexe adds immediate income potential or multi‑generational accommodation.
The plot includes a detached garage/workshop, a large timber barn and tractor store, plus parking for several cars, a motorhome or caravan. Internally the property retains period and 1980s fittings: exposed beams and brickwork in the kitchen give character, while many rooms are generously proportioned throughout the 3,581 sq ft layout.
Important practical points: the house requires modernization in places and would benefit from updating to kitchen, bathrooms and some services. Broadband and mobile signal are average, and any change of use or conversion of outbuildings would need planning consent. Freehold tenure and no flood risk are valuable positives for rural buyers.
This home will suit buyers seeking substantial outside space, equestrian or smallholding potential, or a family needing separate annexe accommodation. With its size, land and outbuildings, the property offers clear scope to improve value with sympathetic refurbishment and sensible investment.
