Granary Barn, Cannister Hall, Swaffham Road, Toftrees

Brief Description

A 4 bedroom barn conversion with communal gardens, indoor swimming pool and games room, suitable for holiday lettings. No chain.

Main Description

Granary Barn is a former agricultural outbuilding of Cannister Hall which has been sympathetically converted to provide a characterful barn conversion with open joists and pine floorboards, substantial beams to vaulted ceilings and exposed brick walls. The accommodation is laid out over 3 storeys and comprises an open plan kitchen/dining/living room, ground floor shower room with a landing upstairs leading to 3 bedrooms and a bathroom. To the second floor, there is a large principal bedroom and bathroom with a freestanding roll top bath. The property further benefits from UPVC double-glazed windows throughout, traditional ledge and brace internal doors and a west facing garden garden to the rear overlooking paddocks.

Granary Barn is situated on a complex of similarly converted buildings and is being offered to the market on a new 125 year lease. The property must be purchased as a second home and can only be occupied for 48 weeks of the year and an annual service charge applies (£4,400 for 2023/24 including buildings insurance). This covers the use and maintenance of the extensive shared facilities including, on site, a detached indoor swimming pool, games room and laundry room, TV licence, water rates and emptying the septic tank. There is designated parking close to the property and to the east a lawned garden for shared use. Offered for sale with no onward chain, the current owners have successfully let Granary barn out as a holiday cottage and the furniture, fixtures and fittings are available by separate negotiation.
