Residents enjoy easy access to an array of amenities, from supermarkets to healthcare facilities, with excellent rail links to Norwich, Cambridge, and London, further enhancing its appeal.

Mayfield Barn

The epitome of prestige, this residence encompasses the main 5-bedroom barn alongside three additional properties, meticulously converted by the current owners. Offering flexible living arrangements and boundless potential, the additional properties include:

Courtyard Barn: A charming one-bedroom, one-bathroom annex

The Hayloft: A 2/3-bedroom, 2-bathroom residential cottage

The Granary: A delightful 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom residential cottage

These properties generate an annual income of £30,000 from licensed residential lets (The Hayloft & The Granary) and serve as lucrative revenue streams or luxurious guest accommodations.

The main barn exudes magnificence, boasting five generously proportioned double bedrooms, two ensuite bathrooms, an office, formal dining room, cosy snug, and a versatile 31ft gym room. The exquisite kitchen/breakfast room is adorned with impeccable cabinetry, granite worktops, and a matching central island, while a separate kitchen/utility area with a walk-in pantry and WC adds to the functionality. Original features, including large windows, exposed beams, and stone tiling, infuse the residence with rustic charm.

Approaching this extraordinary estate, an electric gated driveway ensures privacy and security, leading to ample parking spaces and a detached garage. The expansive garden, extending over 5 acres, offers ample space for leisure and potentially extends to the adjacent field, providing vehicular access and a possible glamping area, subject to planning. Additionally, a 2-bay barn area presents opportunities for further annexes or office space, subject to planning, further elevating the allure of this prestigious property.

We have been made aware by the current owners that a variety of the current furniture will be available to purchase via a separate negotiation.

We understand the property will be sold freehold, connected to mains water and electricity with oil central heating (Courtyard Barn is served by air source heating).

The Hayloft & The Granary are both served by a shared oil tank.

The estate was converted by the current owners in 1990.

Places of interest

     Welcome to Minors & Brady, your local, independent estate agents. If you're thinking of buying, selling, or letting, then you've come to the right place. We were recently awarded first place in 'best estate agency office' in the whole of Norfolk and Suffolk and we came third in the whole of the U.K. at the ESTAS, the UK's largest estate agency awards hosted by Phil Spencer from 'Location Location'.    Our story is an interesting one. Jamie Minors and Alex Brady were passionate estate agents who had relentlessly worked their way up from Trainee Negotiators, to Senior Valuers, to Branch Managers for other firms; Pymm & Co and Haart respectively. Both Jamie and Alex had a long term plan to build their way of buying and selling via their own brand to ensure their same ethos was practiced daily. As competing rivals in the property industry, but friends outside of business, they coincidentally both realised they were due to set up their own firms in the same area.    After much discussion, they both realised they wanted the same thing; to deliver the best possible service to all buyers and sellers across Norfolk, with one 'super team' under one brand.    From there, as they say, the rest is history. Minors & Brady is now an award winning estate agent offering an unrivalled level of service in our area. Our key strength is that an owner of the business oversees all aspects of buying and selling, 7 days a week.
