The Barnhouse is a distinctive former chapel converted into a four-bedroom detached home, offering more than 1,600 sqft of character-filled living over two floors. Period features — including a chapel window, sash windows, original floorboards and a cast-iron fireplace — sit alongside contemporary upgrades such as bespoke kitchen cabinetry, granite worktops and a new oil-fired boiler.
Ground-floor living centres on a triple-aspect sitting and dining room with wood-burning stove and electric underfloor heating, plus a 23ft kitchen/breakfast room with restored parquet flooring and a range-style cooker. Upstairs provides a principal suite with dressing room, an en-suite to a second bedroom and a family bathroom with a roll-top bath.
Outside, the large landscaped garden and detached larch-framed garden room (fully powered) extend living space and offer flexible uses subject to planning (hot tub, studio or summer entertaining). The plot enjoys sweeping countryside views and a quiet hamlet location with easy road access to Dereham, the A47 and Norwich.
Notable practical points: the boiler was replaced recently and the property is chain-free. Buyers should note the driveway is not included in the title (owned by the council), the EPC is D, and the building has solid brick walls (no known cavity insulation). Heating is oil-fuelled, and broadband and mobile signal are average — all factors to consider for year-round rural living.
