The property now offers incredible open-plan ground floor living, with 3x large sets of sliding doors, linking the rear of the property directly to the terrace and outside space whilst flooding the barn with light. <br/>__________<br/><br/>GROUND FLOOR<br/><br/>The barn is entered on the ground floor through the utility room which in turn leads into a small corridor before the main body of the home. A stunning open plan kitchen/breakfast room (24’11 x 17’10) is located just of the inner hallway and offers a large and bright space with direct views over the rear. The dining room (18’4 x 13’11) is located in the middle of the barn and is linked through to both the kitchen/breakfast room and the sitting room beyond and again has a large set of sliding doors linking the dining room to the terrace beyond. Found at the far end of the barn is the spacious sitting room (18’5 x 18) with a dual sided wood burner and yet another set of large sliding doors to the rear. A ground floor bedroom (14’11 x 10) is neatly tucked away at the rear and benefits from its own en suite and walk in wardrobe. The modest study (6’5 x 6) is located off the rear hallway along with the plant room, a W.C. and a pantry. The incredible centrally located open style staircase leads up to the first floor from the rear hallway<br/>__________<br/><br/>FIRST FLOOR<br/><br/>The central open staircase leads up to the first-floor landing at the rear of the barn with a small corridor leading to each of the bedrooms. The incredible main bedroom (32’7 x 12’3) is located at the rear of the barn and has the benefit of a wonderful, covered balcony area (16’ x 10) offering spectacular views over the land and beyond. The main bedroom has its own internal en suite complete with bath and separate shower. A dressing room (12’9 x 7’1) has been created and is accessed of the main bedroom corridor. To the rear of the barn are two further bedrooms, both serviced by a central family bathroom.<br/>__________<br/><br/>OUTSIDE<br/><br/>The barn is approached from Brandiston Road over its own gravel driveway, leading past the neighbouring barn that fronts the road. The land to the rear of the barn (almost 5 acres) is simply stunning - immediately behind the barn (accessed from the barn through incredible sliding doors) is a landscaped hard standing terrace area, with a direct view over the land to the rear. This has maturing hedgerows and a tree line along with a number of trees our client has planted over recent years. The land has additional vehicle access (gate) at the most eastern point on the Norwich Road. Our client has been keeping livestock on the land, and it is securely gated/fenced accordingly. Our client has informed us that the land is currently classed as agricultural land, but he intends to put in a planning application for a change of use to equestrian, allowing one to have immediate access and view of the horses in the field. A covered hard standing parking area has been created to the side of the barn for numerous vehicles to park. A large workshop (16’1 x 14’5) is located neatly around the side of the barn, along with a large outdoor working area.<br/><br/>Further land to the North (as pictured) is available by further negotiation.<br/>__________<br/><br/>SITUATION<br/><br/>Cawston is a well-established (recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086) rural village in the Broadland district of Norfolk, located approximately 5 miles south-west of Aylsham and about 12 miles north of the historic city of Norwich. The village offers peaceful countryside living yet within easy reach of the city and local amenities. The village is served by Cawston Church of England Primary school, village hall and a traditional pub whilst further amenities are located nearby at the market towns of Aylsham and Reepham. Cawston is ideally located halfway between the City of Norwich and the North coast, and offers the best of both worlds, with easy vehicle access to the nearby A140.<br/>__________<br/><br/>DRIVING DISTANCES (approx.)<br/><br/>- Norwich train station: 17 miles<br/>- Norwich airport: 9.8 miles<br/>- Aylsham: 5 miles<br/>- Cromer: 17 miles<br/>- Fakenham: 18 miles<br/>__________<br/><br/>WHAT3WORDS<br/><br/>We highly recommend the use of the what3words website/app. This allows the user to locate an exact point on the ground (within a 3-metre square) by simply using three words.

Our client receives a modest annual payment for this, and allows access for maintenance as and when required. He believes the technology is being phased out and in due course will not be used but no fixed timescale is on this yet.<br/>__________<br/><br/>IMPORTANT NOTICE<br/><br/>1.
