A "breathtaking" five-bedroom barn conversion set upon four acres in the Norfolk countryside is up for sale.

The grade-II listed home is located in Tivetshall Saint Margaret, near Diss, for a guide price of £2,250,000.

Its owners set about fully renovating the derelict 17th century barn in 2009 to create a comfortable and versatile home.

On either side of the entrance is a large triple-aspect drawing room with a door to the garden room, housing a substantial fireplace.

There is a ground-floor bedroom suite with its own external access, which estate agent Sowerbys says would make it perfect for an au-pair or Airbnb let.

The single-storey barns are located off the main barn, linked at the far end by a wall that creates an enclosed courtyard.

The Camellia Barn is currently set up as a business meeting space, with a kitchen and shower room that could be adapted for use as a two-bedroom annexe, with planning permission having been previously approved, or alternatively a games room.
