Full Details for 5 Bedroom Detached for sale in Dereham, NR20 :

Sowerbys are delighted to offer this unique opportunity to purchase a complex of former agricultural buildings which enjoy the enviable surroundings of Brisley Common. Included within the package, there is a detached two/three bedroom single storey barn which is available in superb order and could be lived in or rented out straight away. The second property, known as Stable Cottage, was converted a number of years ago and has been successfully rented out recently, providing the owners with a significant monthly income. Attached to Stable Cottage, there is an impressive red brick barn which measures approximately 67ft x 35’3 at its widest point; with outbuildings, a refurbished double garage and planning permission to be converted in to two dwellings. Also within the curtilage, which extends to around 0.6 acres (stms), there is an attractive walled garden with a neatly manicured lawn, a private garden to stable cottage and a gravel car parking area. The site provides an excellent opportunity to invest into the thriving local holiday cottage market, not to mention the long-term let potential. There is even the scope to develop the barns and divide the site up for re-sale (subject to necessary planning consents). Viewing is highly recommended.  

BRISLEY Brisley is a small village situated between the two market towns of Fakenham and Dereham. The village is well known for its surrounding countryside and The Brisley Bell public house, well known for its real ale. 

MANOR BARN A superbly presented two/three bedroom barn conversion, with a most stylish interior which is matched by the stunning position which overlooks Brisley Common. In the past, this barn had been used as a restaurant, known as ‘Commons’; however, it now provides well sized and ‘ready-to-move-in’ accommodation. Throughout the barn, there are a wealth of original features on display; from exposed brick & flint work to the impressive timber roof structures. These original characteristics have been complimented by sympathetically installed contemporary fixtures and fittings, such as the luxurious bathroom suites and engineered timber flooring that extends throughout much of the barn. There is also a pleasant feeling of light created by an expanse of glazing which overlooks the delightful walled garden and outside entertaining area. The accommodation briefly comprises entrance hall, kitchen/dining room, sitting room with wood burner, master bedroom with dressing area and ensuite shower room, second bedroom with doors to a private garden which overlooks the common, garden room/bedroom three and a luxurious family bathroom.

Within this part of the barn there is scope to incorporate mezzanine landings at either end to increase the floor area.
