Morston: Four-bed barn conversion for sale for almost £1.6m

Sowerbys estate agents is selling Hall Farm Barn in Morston, near Holt, for the first time in over 30 years and says it combines the “unmistakeable theatre” of a traditional Norfolk barn with a rare location, which includes almost an acre of south-facing gardens just a short stroll from the quay.

The property has been a much-loved holiday home for the past 30 years, after being converted from a tithe barn into residential use in 1992. Now it offers around 2,700 sq ft of accommodation arranged over two floors and includes a large reception hall with a double-height atrium window and a “grand” kitchen and dining area, which extends to around 30ft.

There is also a useful utility room and cloakroom.
