Summary - 16, Thetford Road, Northwold IP26 5LS
6 bed 2 bath Detached
Huge gardens, paddock option and versatile outbuilding with conversion potential.
Over 3,700 sqft of accommodation across multiple reception rooms and six bedrooms
This Grade II, 17th-century farmhouse offers more than 3,700 sqft of adaptable living space on a huge plot with countryside views. The house retains many original features — sash windows, fireplaces, exposed beams and an old kitchen range — giving it strong historic character and immediate charm for a growing family or someone seeking a period renovation project.
The accommodation includes six bedrooms but only two full bathrooms, so the layout will suit a large household willing to modernise. There is a detached outbuilding with conversion potential and an expansive attic that may allow further accommodation (both subject to planning). A large paddock is available by separate negotiation, increasing appeal for equestrian or smallholding use.
Buyers should note material constraints: the house is Grade II listed which restricts alterations and may complicate works; the solid brick walls likely lack modern insulation; heating is oil-fired; and broadband speeds are slow. Flooding risk is medium and there are practical updates needed throughout, so budget for renovation and listed-consent costs.
Overall, this is a substantial rural home with character and scope — ideal for families who value space and period detail and are prepared to invest in sensitive upgrading and navigation of listed-building requirements.
