Swaffham

Wood Farm has been in the family since 1963, creating cherished memories over more than 60 years. Now, with thoughts of downsizing, it's time for a new owner to embrace this historic Grade II Listed farmhouse on the outskirts of thriving Swaffham. Offering peace, privacy, and spacious living, this versatile property boasts generously proportioned reception rooms with bright, airy interiors and cosy open fireplaces. The dual kitchens are perfect for large families or those who love entertaining.

Upstairs, a generous landing leads to four bedrooms and a family bathroom. Unusually for its age, the principal bedroom features its own en-suite. The attic offers potential for further expansion if needed, adding even more living space.

Outside, the property is surrounded by established greenery, with a long driveway ensuring privacy. There are mature trees, a courtyard garden for private gatherings, an orchard, and ample allotments for vegetable enthusiasts. Additionally, there are outbuildings, including one with lapsed planning permission for conversion into an annexe.

This charming farmhouse, nestled in a tranquil location, offers ample indoor and outdoor space, ready for its next owner to transform into their dream home.
