Summary - Sunnyside Barn, Sunnyside, Bergh Apton NR15 1DD
4 bed 4 bath Detached
Large riverside estate with separate 3-bed holiday barn and versatile income potential.
Riverside grounds of approximately 2.24 acres with private river frontage
A rare riverside barn conversion in the popular South Norfolk village of Bergh Apton, The Old Stables sits in about 2.24 acres of lawn, woodland and private river frontage to the River Chet. The principal single-storey barn (four bedrooms) has bright, airy accommodation, exposed brick and timber frame, a 24-foot sitting room with wood burner and a conservatory – comfortable living arranged for easy single-floor access. A spacious open-plan kitchen with skylight, island, Aga, pantry and utility is a practical heart for family life and entertaining.
Across the gravel drive is Sunnyside Barn, a separate three-bedroom, two-storey timber-frame property currently used as a successful holiday let. It provides versatile ancillary accommodation, useful income potential or multi-generational living with its large double-height reception space, workshop and private terrace overlooking farmland and the river.
Outside the grounds are a major asset: extensive lawns, woodland and riverside walks, outbuildings including a detached garage and large workshop, and a summer house. The site is reached via a private right of way onto a long drive, giving a quiet, private setting yet remaining just nine miles from Norwich with good road links. Broadband is fast and mobile signal excellent, supporting modern working from home.
Practical points to note: heating is oil-fired with underfloor heating; the property carries above-average council tax and the upkeep of a large estate and two dwellings will require ongoing maintenance. The hamlet setting means services are limited locally, though nearby villages and Norwich provide schools, shops and transport. Overall this is a substantial, characterful country property offering flexible living and clear income or rental potential from the second barn.
