DETACHED RURAL FARMHOUSE WITH STUNNING NEW EXTENSION, BENEFITTING FROM A PLOT OF 1.3 ACRE (STMS). LUXURIOUS OPEN PLAN LIVING AREA IN EXTENSION WITH UNDER FLOOR HEATING & VAULTED CEILING.
SOLAR PANELS, BATTERY STORAGE & DETACHED BARN/FORGE WITH DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL A detached farmhouse set in a rural position with no near neighbours, yet located only a few minutes' drive from the popular market town of Wymondham.
The property benefits from a recently finished, single-storey, barn-style extension featuring a luxurious open-plan kitchen/diner/living room, two ground-floor bedrooms, and a Jack and Jill four-piece bathroom—all boasting vaulted ceilings and underfloor heating.
In total, the property comprises approximately 3,062 square feet of accommodation. The original farmhouse has undergone extensive renovation by the current owners.
It is presented effectively as an empty shell, allowing new owners the opportunity to customise and complete their own contemporary finish.
The current owners need to relocate, and the property is being sold in its current condition.
Within the last five years, the farmhouse has received significant upgrades, including a newly installed glass-balustrade staircase, a new roof with tiles imported from Germany, a newly fitted oil-fired central heating boiler with new radiators, a new oil tank, and a new sewage treatment plant.
It also features a solar panel installation with 5kWh of battery storage, complete rewiring, newly replaced windows, and new pipework ready for two upstairs bathrooms.
Most of the flooring in the farmhouse consists of exposed floorboards and tiled floors, complemented by cottage-style doors throughout and two woodburning stoves.
Entering through the extension, a grand entrance hall provides access to both the farmhouse and the new wing.
This space leads to a cloakroom and a services cupboard housing the hot water cylinder, manifolds for the underfloor heating, and the solar panel equipment.
Once inside the extension, you are greeted by an abundance of natural light, vaulted ceilings, and a luxurious kitchen equipped with a breakfast bar seating area and integrated appliances.
The expansive grounds span an approximate 1.3 of an acre plot (stms), secured at the front by large wooden gates and fencing for added privacy.
A large gravel driveway provides ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles.
Additionally, there is an L-shaped barn/forge currently used for storage, which is historically noted in Kelly's Directory of 1890.
