A fantastic, and very adaptable combination of detached barn conversion, paddocks, stores, workshops, and stables. Used for equestrian purposes by the current owners, this truly is a lifestyle home with approaching 5 acres of adjoining land (subject to measured survey) included all of which enjoy wonderful, open views that surround. Setback, and positioned along a small Village road, ‘Dolver Barn’ itself is a successful home which has been converted to create a warm spacious environment. It boasts 3, spacious, true double bedrooms, all of which are served by a large bathroom. The living areas all enjoy tall, vaulted ceilings with beam work that is all exposed and visible. The home centres around the stunning, open-plan kitchen/dining room which spans around 38ft in length and appreciates a bespoke, traditional kitchen along with patio doors that opens onto the private patio. Character very much still exists with oak flooring extending throughout most of the rooms, the existence of latched doorways and a cast -iron stove that warms the triple aspect, 20ft sitting room. From an ecological perspective, underfloor heating runs throughout, and the electricity costs are vastly reduced (if not covered) by a solar panel system that benefits from the highest level of feed in tariff. The outside space allows for the access of large vehicles to all of the fields and provides extensive levels of parking. The farm buildings now act as excellent areas for dry, fully powered storage and workshops (measuring around 19000 square feet respectively) with one housing a range of 12ft stables). Its location provides all of the benefits of a private and peaceful, semi-rural location without the drawback of isolation. Only a few minutes by car will lead directly to the neighbouring Town of Downham Market with all of its amenities including main line railways station. There is also an additional 8 acres of land.

Outside
The Barn itself is set back from the passing village road, accessed via a wide driveway ensuring entry for larger vehicles. This continues around to the rear of the property where there are generous levels of parking. Also, to the rear, there are the 2, detached barns (see below) with space enough between the two for access through to the paddocks. To the side of this is an area is a small orchard comprising cherry trees, plum, peach and cooking apples.
Considered as the main garden, there is a generous area of lawn positioned to the front. This is largely enclosed by mature hedging and has a patio area under an oak pergola accessed from both dining area and hallway within the property.
The adjoining fields measure approximately 5 acres in total (subject to measured survey) and these have been divided into various paddocks, largely defined using electric fencing. These have all been continually maintained and when not used as pasture, have been regularly cut.
Adjoining this land, approximately 8 acres of further fields (used for growing hay) could potentially be available to purchase – subject to separate negotiation.
