A Recently Finished & Stunning Barn Conversion With Paddock

 

Situated in a rural location on the outskirts of the village, Grove Barn dates from around 1720 and was converted mid 2008 to provide a comfortable and spacious family home, yet retaining many of its original features and charm. Tilney All Saints is easily commutable to Kings Lynn, Peterborough, Cambridge and Norwich, all with main line train services to London. In brief the accommodation comprises, four double bedrooms, three with en-suite shower rooms, family bathroom, entrance porch, reception hallway opening to the splendid entertaining  room with vaulted ceiling and barn style window having a sitting area to one end with feature brick built fireplace and a dining area to the other end. There is also a snug, family room/study, further hallway with cloakroom and pantry, fitted kitchen with an extensive range of base and eye level units and a utility room. Outside the property sits well back off the road and is approached over a private gravelled driveway which sweeps along side the fenced paddock and on to the courtyard where there is a stable, larger than average double garage with playroom/storage above, electrically operated doors and a WC. There is a twin open fronted cart shed with an attached workshop and to the rear are landscaped lawned gardens with planted borders, fishpond and terracing.
