Are you looking for a home that's a little bit different? Here's a look at some of the most unique properties in Norfolk that you could live in.
When it comes to finding a home, many may choose to opt for a modern new build or a traditional period cottage and overlook all of the quirky alternatives that are also on the market.
From converted chapels to the former headquarters of a Second World War American bomb group, ambitious designers and construction workers have transformed many listed architectural gems in Norfolk into stunning family homes.
Take for example 4 Upper Mill, a converted house on the site of the original Upper Mill windmill in Hindrignham, which is currently on the market with Sowerbys for £650,000.
The brick and flint property boasts four bedrooms, four reception rooms, vaulted and beamed ceilings, bespoke kitchen, utility room, en-suite shower room, separate bathroom, double garage and large studio, as well as the unique mill tower.
As well as this, Sowerbys are also offering a five-bedroom detached period coach house in Middleton for £450,000.
The five-bedroom property, formerly within the curtilage of Middleton Hall (now Middleton Hall Golf Club) would once have held a horse-drawn carriage for the family residing in the Hall. Today, the refurbished home offers a horseshoe shaped accommodation arrangement which includes a large sitting room, conservatory, kitchen, garage and rear garden and is located close to King's Lynn.
