An unconverted listed barn with planning permission set in half an acre - six miles from Diss with train service to London

A unique Grade II listed 18th Century Norfolk timber framed barn standing in nearly half an acre of grounds, in an area of outstanding natural beauty.

With recently acquired planning permission and listed building consent to convert the barn into a four bedroom and three bathroom property, to include a stunning vaulted entrance hall.

The approved plans show that the building is capable of yielding an internal floor area of in excess of 2,800 square feet.

Permission has also been granted for a new double garage in the form of a traditional agricultural style open fronted building.

Grove Farm Barn with its impressive south facing front would make a superb home.

The barn lies about ¾ mile to the north west of the village of Brockdish in delightfully unspoilt rural surroundings in the wooded, undulating countryside of the upper Waveney valley.

Grove Farm Barn stands well back from the lane and has its own access directly off Grove Road, which is a C class road carrying hardly any traffic.

Harleston is about four miles to the East with the Norfolk and Suffolk coast approximately a further 20 miles. The small flourishing market town of Diss is six miles to the West via the A143. Diss with its mainline railway station and half hourly trains to London, Norwich and Ipswich and the journey time to London is approximately 90 minutes.

Grove Farm Barn is adjacent to Grove Farm House, one of the area's finest, listed, period country houses. To one side of Grove Farm Barn is a recently converted barn and to the other side of the site is another fine Norfolk country house.

There is mains water and mains electricity running along the lane. There is no mains sewer in this rural area and the barn will require a modern sewage treatment plant. Drainage rights have been granted to a ditch at the east boundary of the plot.

Further details including a full set of approved drawings are available (for a small fee to cover costs) from the owner.
