A rare chance to renovate a listed farmhouse has become available near Norwich at a guide price of £750,000.

Dunston Dairy Farm is set in over one and a half acres and is constructed of red brick. It has three bays arranged over two storeys and a dormer attic, which could be integrated into the main living space.

It is thought to date from around 1760, though the brickwork suggests a slightly later date of around 1775-1780, and is Grade II listed. Some of its original windows are still thought to remain in situ on the first floor.

A spokesperson for selling agents Pymm & Co describes the farmhouse as a “unique character property” and says it offers “immense potential” as a family home.

It is located in a picturesque spot on The Common and offers over 3,100 sq ft of living space.

The current layout provides an entrance hall, sitting room, utility room and drawing room on the ground floor, along with a bathroom and kitchen/diner which spans almost the entire width of the property.

To the front there is a natural pond and wooded area which offers a changing outlook throughout the seasons.

There is a driveway to the side, which leads round to the back, and a garage or cart lodge could be added, subject to planning.

The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn and planted out with a good range of plants, trees and shrubs, with a wooded area at the back which backs on to Dunston Hall Golf Club.
