Description

This Grade II listed 17th-century farmhouse, with later additions, is set in a rural hamlet north of Harleston and is offered with 6.37 acres. The accommodation includes two reception rooms with fireplaces and exposed timberwork, a farmhouse-style kitchen with a range cooker and pantry, a conservatory, utility room and ground-floor WC. A one-bedroom annexe has its own bed-sitting room, kitchen and shower room, and the listing notes that it could be reconfigured to provide additional living space. Upstairs are a bedroom suite with dressing area and en-suite shower room, a further double bedroom and a family bathroom. Two more bedrooms occupy the second floor, each reached by a separate staircase. Oil-fired central heating and two wood-burning stoves are stated, along with mains water and electricity and private drainage by septic tank. Outside, a driveway provides parking for several cars. The grounds include lawn, established borders, a vegetable garden, paddock, a small area of woodland and two fields, one with road access. Barns, stables and former Nissan huts form a substantial group of outbuildings. Any change of use or development would be subject to the necessary consents, with the Grade II listing also relevant to proposed works. Harleston is around five miles away and Norwich around 14 miles.

53out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This Grade II listed farmhouse has a distinctive rural canvas: period beams and fireplaces, 6.37 acres, and a range of barns, stables and former Nissan huts. The house looks generally usable, with dated finishes offering scope for a light refresh; the established grounds also include an overgrown vegetable plot that could be brought back into use. The outbuildings may offer further possibilities, but their condition and any consents or lawful uses would need checking.

At £700,000, the asking price is around 2.5% above the local £/sqf average, so price is not a particular advantage. With the stated renovation range, purchase plus refurb costs also look tight against local benchmarks. The character, land and outbuildings give this project appeal, but the numbers make it a weaker overall opportunity rather than an obvious value buy.

Key opportunities

  • Retain and refresh the period character, including the exposed beams and fireplaces, while updating dated interior finishes.
  • Restore the overgrown vegetable plot and make use of the established grounds, paddock and fields.
  • Explore the potential of the barns, stables and former Nissan huts, subject to condition, lawful use and required consents.
