A rare opportunity to acquire the site of a historic former farmhouse together with a substantial detached barn, occupying an attractive rural position within approximately 1.83 acres in the picturesque Waveney Valley.

Bridge Farm is approached along a private track and surrounded by the attractive countryside within the Waveney Valley.
