This one-bedroom detached barn conversion in Martham combines rustic character with compact, practical living — ideal for a downsizer or someone seeking a low-maintenance rural base near the Norfolk Broads. The open-plan ground floor and vaulted first floor with exposed beams create an airy, characterful interior; a wood burner stove provides focal warmth and atmosphere. The garden is mature and private with a lawn, apple tree and two timber sheds, offering outdoor space without heavy upkeep.
Practical features include two WCs (one on each level), a cleverly sited shower under the stairs and generous built-in storage. The property sits on a decent plot and is freehold with no flood risk, and council tax is very cheap, helping running costs. Note the walls are original solid brick (assumed uninsulated) and double glazing has an unknown install date — the house will reward selective upgrading to improve thermal performance.
Heating details should be checked: the listing references a wood burner and a stove, while the technical details record oil-fired boiler and radiators as the main fuel. Buyers should confirm the current heating setup and fuel arrangements. Overall this detached barn offers charming character, scope for modest improvement, and strong holiday-home or quiet living appeal close to village amenities and Broads access.
