This beautifully restored 18th Century barn conversion is located in the quiet hamlet of Toftrees in North Norfolk approximately 2 miles from the historic market town of Fakenham, which has a range of shops for stocking up on essentials and some fantastic old pubs. Just under 12 miles away is the seaside town of Wells-next-the-Sea which is a pretty harbour town with a sandy beach backed by pine trees and colourful beach huts. The beach continues round to the magnificent Holkham Bay, part of the stunning Holkham Estate, at the heart of which lies Holkham Hall, a stunning Palladian manor house.

The front door of this attractive property opens onto a hallway, off from which is the wonderfully spacious open-plan living area, comprising a lounge/kitchen/diner with wooden floors, a beamed ceiling, and exposed brick walls. In the lounge area, comfortable leather seating offers plenty of space for guests to relax, whilst there is a Smart TV/DVD for leisurely entertainment. At the opposite end of the room, the dining area has space to seat six, whilst the kitchen is well-equipped with an oven, hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, and dishwasher. A washing machine and tumble dryer, meanwhile, can be found in the communal area within the games room. One of the property’s bedrooms can be found on the ground floor, an attractive dual-aspect double room, next to which there is a shower room with a walk-in shower and WC. Stairs from the living area lead up to the first floor where there are two more bedrooms, the first of which is an attractive king-size room which has a beamed ceiling and space to store clothes in a chest of drawers. The property’s third bedroom is a restful twin room, across the landing from which the contemporary-style bathroom has a shower-over-bath and WC.

Outside the property, there is a shared courtyard area, which provides guests with plenty of space to enjoy relaxed leisure time and for which there is seating provided. Guests are also able to enjoy the fields which surround the property, whilst there are also excellent shared leisure facilities: an indoor heated pool ideal for children, with depths of 0.66m (2' 2") to 1.04m (3' 5"), a games room with table football, table tennis, pool tables and a full size snooker table. There is off-road parking for several cars.

Lovely large barn, very comfortable with everything you need in the kitchen for six people. Thought the place was dirty at first, but after a wipe down realised the webs are created very quickly!
