    About this property

    • Watering Farm is a stunning farmhouse which during our current owners tenure has undergone significant renovation and improvement works to create a stylish, modern home whilst retaining the charm of a period property.
      The property features spacious rooms and in particular the generously proportioned living room and kitchen/dining rooms feature sliding doors into the garden and make the most of the excellent countryside outlook. The kitchen is of a high specification featuring in built appliances inset under a quartz work surface with high gloss white wall and base level units offering plenty of storage. In addition both a large study and separate dining area allow for flexible accommodation and could be utilised as a downstairs bedroom and a playroom if a purchaser desired. The ground floor is complete with a useful utility/boot room as well as a separate cloakroom.

      The first floor offers four double bedrooms with these being served via a four piece family bathroom as well as an ensuite to the principal room. A separate walk in wardrobe provides good storage.

      Watering Farm is approached via electronically operated gates and leads to a large gravel driveway with parking for numerous vehicles. Sitting within gardens and grounds of about 22 acres, the property gives prospective purchasers the opportunity to purchase a rare country lifestyle that would suit either equestrian purposes, a small hobby farm or for a purchaser who just wishes to own a slice of beautiful Norfolk countryside.

      A substantial range of outbuildings is in situ including a stables and arena complex consisting of a 109ft x 40ft arena, six stables and a multitude of store and tack rooms. A further barn and hayloft give additional storage for machinery with a separate block of three store rooms being the ideal garden furniture secure space.

      The owners converted another series of outbuildings into a perfect work from home studio complete with kitchen and shower room. With the right permissions put in place this could be utilised as annexe accommodation for multi-generational living.
